Biab nails

Hey, not sure if this has been something that’s come up and I’ve maybe missed it, but someone mentioned to me the other day about not having gel nails done whilst in labour just in case I have to go into theatre. Has anyone heard of this before and am I meant to not have my nails done from now on?

I think it's about dark nail varnish impacting the efficiency of those finger monitors? Xx

They advise natural nails incase of going to theatre, normal surgery would require not nail polish at all as it can mess with the equipment that checks your pulse etc

The NHS recommends that pregnant women avoid wearing any type of nail polish, including gel nail polish and acrylics, during labour and delivery. Check with your midwife, I don’t mind not having any, my do only pedicure as I am going for surgery option.

I wasnt allowed any nail varnish on my nails for my egg collection or embryo transfer…so I wouldn’t be surprised if they want you to have them natural for labour x

I had gel polish on my nails during my labour i was induced, and midwife didn't say anything she actually complimented the colour.

STD rates and body count

Saw an interesting video and I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on this topic!

So std rates are at an all time high as we all know. Do you think the mindset that body count doesn’t matter has contributed to the significant increase of STDs and HIV?

Secondly if someone says that body count doesn’t matter do you believe they are less likely to practice safe sex compared to people who believe in more traditional values?

I can’t put all the combinations in the poll so feel free to comment just yes/no answers

If your partner got a prostitute pregnant and then abandoned the child/ran away, what would be your response? Read…

So you were not in a relationship at the time or were about to be in a relationship, he gets the prostitute pregnant.
It’s her fault for not taking their morning after pill.
He tells her straight up that he’s not going to be involved and that she should terminate it.
She says that she won’t terminate and she hopes that he does stick around

So she deliberately gets pregnant, basically traps him

What would be your reaction?
he’s response is:
“She trapped me and it’s her fault for not taking the pill”
