Annoying or not, I guess it's just normal for family & friends to be concerned & try to help. I guess I just really prefer to know the "why"s behind everything. :-D Thanks guys for your input.

Actually, when Abbey was pregnant we got a lot of advice too about what to eat and what not to eat...one thing we realize is that there are some foods that the 'older people' would say not eat b/c it will have these adverse effects on the baby..etc etc etc... Well we figured that for the sake of the old people saying "I told you so" for the rest of our lives, we, Abbey just avoid those foods, at least in their presence, when the baby comes out healthy and so on, they will feel good and shut up ;) Just my two cents on superstitions; it is just to shut the old people from blaming you. :D -Da Superstition is they key to keep the old people from annoying you for the rest of your life!

Not everything is absolute when it comes to pregnancy because everyone is different. Moderation is key. So that's why I refrain from giving advice because everyone's experience is different.
