Pregnant? Here Are Some Questions To Ask The Doctor


Everytime I go to the doctor I forget everything I want to ask.

The American Pregnancy Association offers this list of topics for discussion:

  • Is there a phone number or nurse line that I can call when I have questions?
  • Who should I call if I start bleeding or cramping?
  • What should I consider an emergency?
  • Now that I’m pregnant, do I need to make changes to my nutrition, exercise routine and sexual activity?
  • How often will I have prenatal visits?

My suggestion:

  • You may also want to ask about what tests you need to take and when so that you can plan ahead for time off work.

If you are a first time mom you will probably have a million other things to ask, but this is a good starting point!

Parents Forget 4-year-old Daughter At Airport


A couple mistakenly forgot their four-year-old daughter at the airport as they rushed to catch their connecting flight.

The ultra-Orthodox family of seven, who between them had 18 suitcases, were in a hurry not to miss their flight from Ben Gurion international airport at Tel Aviv, and in their haste failed to notice that only six of them had actually boarded the plane.

“I saw a little girl in tears. She was looking for her parents,” a policewoman told reporters.

“Luckily she was able to give me her name. I grabbed her and ran to the gates but it was too late (because the plane had just taken off).”

As the aircraft gained height, the girl’s parents suffered the crushing embarrassment of being paged by the pilot of the plane to inform them that their family was short one member. They had apparently still not realized.

Could you imagine? No!
