Always carry a jar of pickles...
Tonight was our third childbirth class, and we're learning all sorts of interesting things. Tonight we heard some old-timey advice about what to do if your water breaks in public so that you don't get embarrassed -- Doctors used to advise pregnant women to always carry a jar of pickles with them. Then, if their water broke and left a mess on the ground, they could drop the jar right where the mess was and say, "Oh, no! I seem to have dropped a jar of pickles!"Apparently, they can also make a tasty snack. Who knew?
