In a virtuosic return to form, Martin Amis revisits the sex-fueled material of his early career such as THE RACHEL PAPERS, DEAD BABIES, and SUCCESS. The political concerns of his recent writing have been, for the most part, jettisoned, and Amis`s famously prodigal prose devotes itself instead to the specific human experience of coming-of-age in the sexually liberated era of the 1970s. The protagonist of the novel, Keith Nearing, is a 20-year-old literary soul aspiring to be a libertine during a summer vacation with a group of friends at an Italian castle. Despite the new freedom of the age and Keith`s witty quips on literature and lust, sex is trickier in practice than in theory, and he finds his desires bent and twisted by the newly empowered bathing beauties tanning themselves poolside at the castle. In the novel`s inspired coda, Amis fast-forwards through the decades after the erotic summer, and shows how the aftereffects of moral revolution rippled out through his characters` lives. An admittedly autobiographical work, THE PREGNANT WIDOW vividly captures the hedonistic fevers of youth in the post-pill, pre-AIDS world, and also depicts those who burned up in its ravishing heat. Keith is damaged by his experiences, but his sister Violet--a clear stand-in for Amis`s own sister--dies from drink and dissolution. Comic, debauched, erudite, and ill-behaved--these are well-known early Amis traits, but THE PREGNANT WIDOW adds a melancholic wisdom to the mix, re-imagining the stories of his youth though the dark glass of time. Selected by Publishers Weekly as a 2010 Top 10 Book.

Belly button ring and pregnant?

I've had my belly button pierced for the past 8 months and now that I'm 25 weeks pregnant and dont want to give it up.I know there are prenatal belly rings but is it necessary? can i keep my orginal ring in if it isnt bothering me? I wasnt worried about the baby because it is skin outside of my stomach..thanks in advance.

it depends purely on the person .
my cousin went thru 3 pregnancies with her belly button ring in & they were the normal steel bars .
but then a family friends daughter had to have her belly ring cut out of her stomach when she got too big to keep it in . as her belly got bigger it was pushing the bar up & the bottom of the ring ended being under her skin & they had to put her under general & cut it out .

but don't take the risk , if you really wanna keep it in get on of the longer flexible prenatal bars .

14 weeks pregnant leaking fluid?

Ok so i know i already asked about this once tonight but i did not really say what i meant.
I am 14 weeks pregnant and this is my 3rd pregnancy i have been leaking some kind of fluid for a few days now it looks clear to me at first but after a while it turns to a yellowish colour on my underwear/pad, It smells like urine but i am not sure.
If it is urine why is it leaking from me when ever it feels like??

I am also going to the toilet to urinate at least once every hour somtimes twice and i am not even drinking much.
I went to A&E and sorted everything out, It is just discharge they say the baby is fine and everything is well, I did have a bit of blood in my urine but all is well now. Thank you for your answers xxx

Finally a woman who had the same problem as me...Its not urine its just discharge...I had the same problem to the T. I actually went to the ER thinking I was leaking amniotic fluid, this is my second pregnancy. They said its just discharge and is normal at this time, except I got mine around 12 weeks. They told me to just wear a panty liner till it goes away...well it still hasnt but it clear again now instead of turning yellow...LOL! Its normal tho hun dont worry...best luck to you! And congrats!
