12 observations from nine months of pregnancy

Cervix jokes kill.
My wife hit the nine-month mark in her pregnancy earlier this week. So here is some insight into spring training for parenthood (from an admittedly bad source).
  • A guy's biological usefulness ends at insemination; keep that in mind when you realize you're not getting as much attention as you're used to.
  • While watching your wife get an ultrasound, compliment her on her cervix.
  • A fun way to kill time in a Kentucky OB/GYN office's waiting room is to look for mothers sitting with their teenage daughters and guess which one is pregnant.

Abundance of birthing and parenting strategies confuse expectant father

Take the epidural or deliver to a she-wolf among contradictory advice
My wife and I are expecting a daughter, due on Christmas (had it been a boy, I would've insisted on naming him Jesus and then declared myself God, but alas…). Everyone we talk to has advice. And as many of these people have children who are intact and not incarcerated, it seems worth taking. (It doesn't take much to know more about parenting than I do: the one time in my life I tried to change a diaper, I ended up with mookie sticks on the floor and a 2-year-old mocking me.)
