Oo! Oo! Mabye it could be a patch that assesed when you were going to feel tipsy from a hormone shift and could give you the right message from a little microchip. I think there should be different voices — like the sweet nanny voice, or the no-nonsense mama voice. You could program it to rotate through the voices so the message stayed “fresh.” :-)

I know when I was nursing my hormone stew used to tip when the babies started nursing more (during a growth spurt) or less, especially when they started self-weaning. It helped me feel less afraid of the waves of depression or anxiety when I knew they were chemical and that “this too shall pass.”

Susan — this idea came to me because of the conversations we had in the car about how helpful it would have been if someone had explained hormone flux to us better when we were younger! :-)

May you all have a stable day!

That is a great idea!!! I wonder how hard it would be to make it available for people with hormone disorders, like myself! My estrogen likes to play tricks on me from time to time!

I’d pay good money for such a thing. Especially since I woke up this morning thinking the most indecent thoughts and then realized my husband is far away and I am ovulating.

Excellent.
