Andrew goes "over the line" in meeting with midwife

On Wednesday September 2nd, 2009 Andrew and Leigh were at their monthly midwife meeting. Leigh explained that she hadn't had her period in nearly 6 months, and also noted that she was putting on all sorts of weight in the shape of a beer gut. . . she inquired of the midwife whether she thought that it might be possible that she was pregnant?. . . The midwife (in a rare example of someone in California understanding sarcasm) said, "no. no. don't worry about it. It is highly unlikely and anyway, I think that it will clear up by mid-december. . . If it is still going on in January, definitely call us - but I think that it is going to resolve itself."

Later in the meeting, Andrew was paging through the folder of information that was provided and saw that there was a sheet providing information about circumcision. . . Andrew noted that it was only information about male circumcision, and asked whether they also provided female circumcision services? . . . The midwife (actually getting it, but with Andrew, Leigh and her, acknowledging that this was completely inappropriate) said that, "no, sorry we don't offer that here."
