WELCOME!!
Hello ladies! First I want to thank you for visiting The Belly Button Connection (TBBC). TBBC was originally created as a forum for mothers: aspiring, expecting, and veteran. The name was derived from the baby’s connection to the mother: physically, mentally, and emotionally. I wanted TBBC to be a place where women received both accurate and positive feedback about pregnancy. Since creating TBBC I’ve learned that our thoughts about pregnancy, motherhood, and womanhood start long before the onset of puberty. In fact, it starts with our relationships with our own mothers, aunts, sisters, and peers. Our hardships are not our own. They are passed down from generation to generation, friend to friend, spouse to spouse, parent to child. This doesn’t have to be the case. Leo Buscaglia said it best when he said, “Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.”
TBBC is that touch, smile, kind word, listening ear, honest compliment, and smallest act of caring. My mission is to keep you abreast on events, programs, and seminars that will be beneficial to you as well as partner with organizations that will improve your confidence, increase your self-esteem, and help you become the woman you strive to be for yourself, your family, and generations to follow.
In Britian we have scientists creating artificial sperm from human stem cells while US doctors are giving families the option of having a boy or girl. Even more shocking, we are coming closer and closer to gene therapy that can predetermine height, body type, eye and hair color. It may perhaps go so far as to determine good looks, pleasing personalities, and intelligence. Those responsible for these scientific breakthroughs state that these alterations are solely for eliminating genetic diseases, allowing men who are infertile to become fathers, etc. But will they be used for the good of man or cosmetic purposes?
As you can imagine, there are countless debates about "designing" your baby. TBBC would like to know what YOU think!
