Title: Good News For Women who suffer morning sickness when pregnant
Post by: 24KT on April 24, 2009, 12:07:46 AM
Good news for women who suffer from morning sickness.

Researchers at Toronto's Hospital For Sick children have discovered that the more a pregnant woman throws up,
...the smarter her baby will be. We've long known morning sickness correlates to lesser chance of miscarriage, birth defects etc, because the greater hormonal levels equals a healthier placenta. Now we know it also means a smarter baby too. Isn't that good news?  :)

so I'm guessing they asked mom (at birth) how many times she upchucked in the morning and then kept track of those numbers when they gave the kid an IQ test 5 or 10 years later.......

and then developed some sort of "barfometer"


call me suspicious !





















just don't call me late for dinner !

You do realize that the Hospital For Sick Children is one of the most prestigious hospitals in the world, don't you?

...infact, it was Canadian doctors who first recognized & identified this new swine/avian/human flu combo virus going around. The same group that was set up in the wake of the SARs epidemic. Don't make me have to slapshot a hockey puck at your head.  >:(

This is Canada, ...we have good, regular, and routine healthcare including prenatal care.
They probably took notes all throughout a woman's pregnancy noting how long the morning sickness lasted,
...then monitored baby health after it's born, then later tested IQs. Apparently MotherRisk has quite the database of info

Homeschooling assumes parents are smart themselves. :)

Yeah but there are testes and guidleines they have to follow to be allowed to homeschool.  I met this teacher not too long ago and was shocked at how dumb she was.  all i could think was, "wow, she is teaching the future  :-X"

Problem is, most people are equally dumb just without the training. Here, teachers for Catholic schools need a certificate but not the masters degree. A lot of kids excel but it's hard to say if an entire curriculum only geared towards state tests turns out well balanced people.

I'm sure it is well respected in sub-Saharan Africa, but until the AMA signs off on it, the whole thing sounds like witch doctoring.

Yep, ...that's a very good start.  :D

Next, we'll get you enjoying a good hockey fight. That's very important to being a Canadian.
You gotta enjoy watching men beat the crap outta each other, while still able to stay balanced on skates.

You could get your maple leaf stripped away from you for that. You LOVE hockey! Remember that.  :)

Actually, ...it's all aboat hockey. And yes, grab another molson. That should loosen you up a bit.

OK, ...onto the next lesson:

You must develop an appreciation for vinegar on your french fries, ...and ketchup flavoured potato chips.
oh, ...and get used to inserting an extra u in words like colour, flavour, neighbour, harbour etc.

Good News Miggy, ...you're almost there.  :)

A 6 pack of molson in an hour? feh... that's a start. Next, we'll get you finishing off a two four in the same time.
Potato chips aren't mandatory. You're almost there Miggy. How are you at poking fun at Uhmurcans?   :)

Ooooh Miggy, ...you are sooo on the fast track for earning your Maple Leaf!  :D

Now, ...I have to warn you, ...these next few steps, ...may be perilously difficult.
They've been known to cause great anxiety, sleepness nights, ...and many a soiled undergarment (poopy pants),
but if you can get through them, ...there'll be no stopping you. Are you ready for the challenge? Are you up for it?
