Cure for Constipation. Says who?

Pebble's Trip to the Vet: Dental Extractions, Abdominal X-Rays and an Unusual Amount of Sublumbar Muscles by Clarice Asquith

1

Pebble had to see the vet for dental extractions (five teeth) this week.

During the course of Pebble's dental intervention, we decided to take advantage of the anaesthetic and had abdominal x-rays taken to see whether these would provide a clue as to why Pebble appears to be constipated at times and has a tendency to scoot across the carpet after visiting the toilet for a number 2.

I am now pleased to present the two most expensive images taken this year so far :-)

The vet's verdict on these images was after all inconclusive but he remarked that Pebble has an extraordinary amount of sublumbar muscle.

Clear Lake, California USA by 350 .org

At Clear Lake in California, this family and other volunteers gathered to work

in getting lots of non-native, invasive plants out of the lake in preparation of

transplanting tule grasses, a very important filtering marsh grass that has been

70% decimated due to development and increasing agricultural runoff.

"What's good for you (a plant-based, whole foods diet)is also good for our

planet. Livestock consumption causes more global warming than all forms of

transportation combined. It takes 10 times more energy to produce animal-based

protein than plant-based protein."

"The evidence is consistent and compelling that vegetarians suffer less from the

diseases associated with the typical Western diet. Vegetarians have repeatedly

been shown to have lower rates of obesity, coronary heart disease, hypertension,

type II diabetes, diverticular disease, constipation and gall stones. They also

have lower rates of many kinds of cancer, including colon cancer and the hormone

dependent cancers such as prostate cancer, breast cancer, uterine cancer and

ovarian cancer. ...Tragically, one in every three children born this year in the

U.S. will develop diabetes in their lifetime."

anniversary edition of "The Food Revolution: How Your Diet Can Help Save Your

Life And Our World."

Mommy fixes all by Kaytayqt

3 5

We had a problem with gas and constipation :( not a fun couple of days! Mommy was the only one that could calm her down on Sunday until the correct formula was purchased. A good friend put it best- it's amazing what hearing mama's heartbeat can fix. We are all MUCH happier now, and this sweet picture is great to have

A wild riot of colour as thousands celebrate London's Gay Pride Parade 2011. London 02.07.2011

This Saturday July 2nd 2011 saw the explosion of colour and fabulous carnival/cabaret fancy-dress which is the annual Gay Pride parade passing through the packed London streets as many Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual and Transgender groups representing special interest campaigning groups, trade unions, the armed forces, police service, christian groups and several of London's gay bars and clubs celebrated their sexuality and diversity, watched and cheered on by tens of thousands of enthusiastic members of the public.

The days celebrations were purposefully snubbed by London mayor Boris Johnson much to the anger and irritation of many, since Mr. Johnson is expected to show support for all Londoners. However, his greatest opponent in the upcoming mayoral elections, former London Mayor Ken Livingstone was to be seen - as always - at the head of the parade, accompanied by human and gay rights activist Peter Tatchell.

Gone was the nervous tension of the original trail-blazing Gay Pride marches of the late 1970's and early 80's, as a new generation of gay people enjoy far greater public acceptance of their lifestyle in what feel like more enlightened times. What is taken for granted now was fought for in the past by courageous activists and their political supporters who wanted to see an end to the homophobic bigotry and institutionalised discrimination which used to be the universal public position towards them.

Having said that, there was a demonstration set up at the bottom of Waterloo Place by a group of so-called Christians from the Baptist Church - some of whom looked like they had been time-warped directly from the 1950's, complete with emotional constipation - who spent the entire afternoon insulting and demeaning all gay people and anyone who accepts homosexuality as a part of the enormously wide spectrum of human sexuality by cherry-picking snippets from the Bible completely without proper context, and generally showing themselves up to be nothing more than a bunch of hate-filled bigots who hilariously claim to love the people they were standing there belittling.

My photos of the Baptists and the crowd's reactions to being assaulted by the pious abuse are already uploaded in my set "Baptists preach intolerance at Gay Pride Parade".

After the parade made its way from Portland Place to Trafalgar Square, the marchers and bystanders alike dispersed into Soho for some serious street partying which lasted late into the night. There was a main stage in Trafalgar Square which hosted a long rosta of minor-league pop and dance acts during the afternoon, though oddly this year there were no big-name headliners, and another Dance Stage in Soho Square which featured a great line-up of club DJs.

Hemoroidy – wylecz zanim będzie za późno! by Maks Manuals

Hemoroidy – wylecz zanim będzie za późno!

Wbrew powszechnemu przekonaniu ma je każdy z nas. Bo hemoroidy to nie choroba! To struktury naczyniowe odpowiadające za wypróżnianie się. Z chorobą mamy do czynienia dopiero, gdy się powiększą,

a stanowi temu towarzyszą pieczenie, świąd i krwawienie. Co...

At the beginning... by Louisa Lee

He was the most beautiful newborn I ever saw (said with the biased

stand of a proud parent!) I thought babies were supposed to be all

purplish and wrinkled when they first arrived. Sean was powdery fair

with rosy cheeks. Perhaps it's got something to do with his being

carried to full term. In fact, he arrived two days after his e.d.d..

Whenever people ask me how the labour went, I would say it's just like

a bad case of constipation or menstrual cramps. Then again, my labour

only lasted about 4 and a half hours from the time I woke up at 3am and

discovered the 'show'. Got Weng Cheu to time my contractions and

realised they were five minutes apart. Finally!

One thing I know - the laughing gas didn't help with the contractions.

What worked better was hubby's advice to not concentrate on the pain. I

remember trying hard to distract myself with nice beautiful thoughts.

Strangely, an expense of green pasture kept cropping up in my mind.

The best advice I can give to would-be mothers is that squatting helps.

In a bid to clear my bowels once and for all, I squatted on the bed pan

in the delivery ward, and discovered that the dull aching sensation on

my back which accompanied every contraction disappeared. So, when the

next round of contraction came, I anchored myself piggy-back style onto

Weng Cheu, who sat at the end of the bed and pushed like I was having a

severe bout of constipation. When the nurse next came in to check on

the dilation, it had increased from 2cm to about 8cm! All that was

needed after that was simply to wait for Dr Phyllis Liauw to come and

burst the water bag!

Out with the amniotic fluid burst baby, before doctor had time to make

a snip. Imagine the tear ... jagged and reaching down all the way! So

for the short labour that I enjoyed, I suffered for the next three

weeks from the stitches.

I remember crying to hubby in the maternity ward (after all the

visitors had left) but once the nurse wheeled in our precious bundle

for breastfeeding (make that TOTAL breastfeeding) I simply tell myself

that all the pain was worth it!
