Originally posted by robtcorl Just got a text from youngest son, their first child is going to be a boy, due in April.
That'll bring our grandchildren count to 4 boys, and 2 girls.
Great grandchild, also a boy, is due the same month.
Used to be the gender of an expected child was only a guess. Often the baby’s behavior in the womb would supposedly be an indicator.
But that was just old wives tales.
Also used to be that parents used cotton diapers. Rinse them out in the commode, launder, reuse.
Now they use disposable diapers. So lazy.
And at a significant cost too. A woman checking out ahead of me in the store was getting a box.
$34.
I about choked.
The same amount of cotton diapers is about $10, and for pennies they can be reused over and over.
I don’t get it.
