The solution is obviously cocaine.
Hysterical?
You joke, but I’m currently studying the history of my area’s mental health system and people believed giving birth and lactating made women insane.
They were describing post partum symptoms most likely. Pretty rough stuff for some people. Some people can get ptsd from it.
Better treatment options though.
Yeah like divorce :)
Also heroin and dildos. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )
I’ll give mommy an orgasm whenever she wants
Having 4 babies in 1 year in the 1800s had to be quite the achievement
Never said they came to term
I’ve never met anyone who had a miscarriage or stillborn and still described the experience as having a baby in this way.
How many people from the 1800’s do you know
Some women from the 1800s would have described having a miscarriage as a blessing, not a baby.

Personally, or by reputation?
Not impossible though. Two in January, two in November.
Or just the four of them together in one go I guess.
Or 6 at once but 2 didn’t make it
Now we’re going into bitch territory. 🐕
Regardless of which way it happened, I’d be crying a lot, especially if it happened in the 1800s.
In the 1800s you’d be counting yourself lucky you survived it.
Food was much cheaper and you were allowed to put them to work right away.
Plus most of them died before five anyways.
Ah, yes, the 1800s… When it was perfectly legal to put newborn babies to work in the coal-mining sweat shops of South London
Very Tiny Tim: Please, Sir, may I have some WHAAAAA! WHAAAA! WHAAAAA!
Kids as young as 4 years old would be put to work, so it’s not that far off really.
Not just legal but encouraged.
They yearn for the mines after all
Encouraged by all the starvation, poverty, and pestilence
Or triplets in January and one in November, or one in January and triplets in November (but it was definitely these two months). She’s crazy – capable of anything.
Irish quadruplets?
Only if they survive until birth.
… fortunately for you, I have a treatment that won’t cost much. No, you can’t watch. Also, there’s a discount if you pay for a full year in advance.
Modern day vibrators are a silver lining to this time period lol
I’m not a fan of this use of “whom”.
Slightly smarter dumb-dumbs get corrected a lot so they just always use the “more proper” sounding one while still not actually understanding the rule
It’s like YouTubers who say “thee” because they think it’s a more formal version of “the”. Drives me crazy…
That’s rage bait, right?
I’m glad my YouTube algorithm had been honed and curated for so long that I never get suggested morons like that.
But it does rhyme with “womb”, if you’re composing slam poetry.
Because it’s incorrect.
Exactly the reason why, indeed.
