How to Have Babies
Better Babying through Chemistry and the Internet
First comes love, then comes marriage,
then comes the baby in the baby carriage
Now that you’re hitched, you want babies!
This transmission passes on 4 measures to make sure you do.
1. Health
Lose the extra weight, be healthy, eat lots of micronutrients.
Eat the mid-Victorian way.
Eat high-quality, high-micronutrition foods. Fermented foods, beef and mutton and lamb, eggs, milk, liver and offal, bone broth, vegetables — grown yourself or in your trusted network where feasible.
On the losing weight front, one of our guys is having some preliminary success with taking 2 olive leaf pills a day. A significant ingredient in olive leaves has a semi-glutide structure very similar to the new wave of effective diet meds such as Ozempic. Lab rats have lost weight when given it. Try at your own risk, self-medication is not something to do lightly. Based on preliminary results, our guy advises being very consistent about taking the pills and being very conscious and managed about going off them, otherwise you might get much of the weight back.
2. Sex
Have lots of great sex. More chances for conception, plus there is evidence that orgasm enhances conception
3. Treat miscarriages
There is a very common mutation ((MTHFR) that causes a huge number of miscarriages (50%). It is easily treatable (exoxaparin (Lovenox). Aspirin + folate substitution helps, but those plus the drug helps even more. The condition is easily testable. Recommended for any family that has had multiple miscarriages.
4. Avoid marginal c-sections
Research which hospitals do unnecessary c-sections. There are a LOT of hospitals that do unnecessary c-sections, and there are a LOT of unnecessary c-sections. Sometimes necessary, even life-saving. But every unnecessary c-section is a tragedy that harms that mother’s future births.
South Korea, the country with the world’s most appalling low extirpatory extinctionary TFR, has an incredibly high c-section rate. 60%. (Non-X link)
There is a correlation between low birth rates and high c-section rates. Birth is hard. Surgeries are harder.
Hospitals ramp up the c-section rate when they have empty beds.
C-section rates above 10% do nothing to improve help. Global c-section rates are 20%.
C-section rates vary wildly between hospitals. As much as nine times higher. This cannnot be explained by different demographics or income levels. Ask your doctor and your hospital what their c-section rate is. Or hop on a search engine.
Happy babying.
