[blparent] Pregnancy and food- helpers pushing beliefs on you

[Kate McEachern]

Also on walmart.com there is a bada link for a shopping delivery.  I checked 
if it was in my area and at this time it isn't.  But if you want to check it 
out just go to walmart.com asnd look for a link called badashopping 
delivery.
