When I was nine months pregnant I went to the dentist, my teeth was lovely, not one filling in my mouth.

Fast forward 10 months later, I have 3 fillings, 1 crown and 1 extraction.

I knew babies really take it out of our bodies, but Geez! I didn't realise they can seriously ruin your teeth!

I will need full dentures if I ever had another baby!

The funny thing is I was hooked on milkshakes throughout my pregnancy, and I consume a vast amount of dairy but nope, my son is taking ALL the goodness out of me, which is evident when you see him, he is a big plump happy baby!

The old wives' saying that a woman loses a tooth per child seems to be borne out by this US study of more than 2000 women http://ajph.aphapublications.org/cgi/content/abstract/98/7/1263?maxtoshow=&HITS=10&hits=10&RESULTFORMAT=&author1=russell&andorexactfulltext=and&searchid=1&FIRSTINDEX=0&sortspec=relevance&resourcetype=HWCIT


The conclusion is that "Parity is related to tooth loss among American women, but the mechanisms of the association remain undefined" or "the more often you've been pregnant, the fewer teeth you're likely to have, but we aren't sure exactly why"!

    • Maybe if you indicated what you were reviewing, pub, gastro pub, high-end gourmet, local Italian etc. - whatever classifications you wanted, then you need only indicate that your stars referred to overall quality in that category. So it it's pub grub then 5 stars means it's great pub grub, but not the same experience as 5 stars in a high end gourmet category. Your star system could then include implicitly value for money as well. 
    • Does OP know they can sell everything but alcohol even without a license?😄
    • Thanks, it's a real dilemma whether to do star ratings. A few people have asked me to do them but I've tried to resist as they are too reductive - people will look at them and won't read review! and they are difficult too - my last review of Victoria Inn, i'd give it five stars for value for money - how can you knock two courses for £18? – but 2 stars for quality - edible but nothing special. Which I guess is why some sites give star ratings for different things...
    • ok - Jeremy himself is against mandatory vaccines. Is he as extreme as his brother? No? Is it fair to discuss how the overall view of that family would inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic? I would argue very much so
