Hits close to home since I did internally hemorrhage w baby 2 after c section + was told pregnancy would not be safe for me again. #ForcedBirth is an abomination. Women deserve human rights too.

Streaming ruined favors. I treasured the burned CD playlists I received. #old .Wedding favors are now almost anything that can be given an appropriate slogan: . these well-meaning gifts are more for the newlyweds than their guests, @kellyconaboy writes.
