A Funny About My Hunnies

This happens in our house. All the time. Google has been the go-to problem solver since we found out I was pregnant. I had the books, but why bother with those when you have the whole internet at your disposal?

Apparently doctors really hate this method of obtaining information. I remember calling the OB/GYN nurse during one of my many illnesses while I was pregnant worrying about something I learned online (I can't recall the specific ailment -- pregnancy caused my brain to shrink, but that's another post). They refuted this information and told me to stop reading the internets.

But, I can't! It's so useful when searching for the reason for green baby poo or to check on a four months old development. How did people learn about what to do with their babies before Google?
