How do you feel about being forever pre-pregnant?

A friend told me about these new US federal guidelines...

Personally, it scares the be-jay-sus out of me! Anyone read the 'Handmaids Tale?'. Makes me feel like breeding stock. It's one thing to take care of your body if you're considering starting a family, but from your first period?

In a country like the US, it won't be long before mother's are taken to court for drugs they did at age 14. Scary.....


What do you think? Should all women behave as if 'forever pregnant' Or is it a control step too far?

What utter control freaky claptrap! OK how about the blokes, afterall if women are to remain pre pregnant then its only fair to guarantee quality sperm?

Only in America

Oh for goodness sake.
When my AF started at 14 I really don't think having/planning babies was high on my agenda then, I was sh*t scared about having to wear pads, let alone think 'Mmm must take my folic acid now! for when I want a baby when i'm 30'

Minime, you're so right 'Only in America'
