Letting big brother name the new baby
Choosing a name for your unborn baby is one of the fun, creative things that go along with the swollen ankles, heartburn and hemorrhoids of pregnancy. It was for me, at least. I had a list of favorite names that I would pull from that was depleted around baby #3. Totally understandable when you are given the job of naming six children.
So, why not have your older children help?
In TODAY Moms, they are discussing Letting older siblings name the baby: Is it a do or a don’t?
I never thought to do this, but it was probably best. My children aren’t shy about their plans to name my grandchildren after bounty hunters from Star Wars.
But this concept of letting an older sibling name the new baby is near and dear to my heart. When my sister was preparing for her third little girl, her oldest daughter Selah who was three years old at the time, was obsessed about the “purple baby” in mommy’s tummy. Apparently, this baby had an aura and it was purple. We thought it was cute. But really, Selah? You can’t name a baby Purple!
But it is a perfectly acceptable middle name.
My niece is named Stella Purple. She also goes by the name Purple or Stelly P. I think it’s adorable because it just fits her. Purple is a beautiful color. She got lots of little purple outfits when she was a baby. Purple is a sign of royalty and let me tell you, this sassy little thing likes to think she’s in charge and she’s not afraid to tell you so. And how cool is it to know your big sister named you?
Personally, I think people are a little too stuffy with names. Who wants to be named after your great great great great grandmother’s sister on your father’s side? Not me. But I confess, I draw the line at Jango Fett.

Tips to help ease hemorrhoid pain
Hemorrhoids happen because of weak veins that swell due to pressure. The blood pools and causes veins to engorge; this can be caused by many situations, among them obesity, pregnancy, lifting heavy objects, straining on the toilet, coughing, sneezing, standing or sitting for long periods of time. People who eat a high fiber diet and stay well hydrated are less likely to suffer with hemorrhoids, whereas people who eat processed foods will eventually feel it in the end.
The primary difference is pain. With internal hemorrhoids, there is no pain because the swollen veins are higher up in the rectum where there are no nerves. There may be no symptoms at all, or you may have bleeding after a bowel movement. For some, bleeding may be the first and only sign. Others may experience a thin stool and the urge of not being finished yet. External hemorrhoids hurt like crazy and, if untreated, can thrombose, meaning they can turn purplish-blue and bleed. They can itch, burn and irritate.
Also, two herbs have a long history with regard to hemorrhoids. Butcher's Broom contains ruscogenin, which helps tighten blood vessels. Horse Chestnut contains aescin, which tones vein walls. Aloe vera juice may help constipation.
Please see a specialist to ensure that pencil-thin stools, bleeding or other symptoms are related to hemorrhoids, rather than something more serious.

New Book Raises Question: Was Gandhi Gay?
More than six decades after his death, Mahatma Gandhi remains a polarizing figure—either revered or despised. So the arrival of a new book on him is a chance for those with well-formed unflattering opinions of Gandhi to trot out all his trespasses, as those on the other end of the spectrum leap to his defense.
Which is exactly what they did in reactions to a new book by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Joseph Lelyveld "Great Soul: Mahatma Gandhi and His Struggle With India," officially out in the U.S. on Tuesday.
Of course, it's not often a book on Gandhi—even the many revisionist books, plays and films that have come out in recent years and that have highlighted his unkindness to his wife, his remoteness as a father and his odd ways of testing his sexual self-control—has suggested that he might have been gay, or at least had one gay relationship.
The book, published in the U.S. by Knopf, part of Random House Inc., is not yet available in India. A local bookstore said the book was to be released by Random House in India, though a date hadn't yet been set. But a spokeswoman for Random House India said the company didn't have the India rights and could provide no further information. For now, readers in India will have to be content with what they can glean from the overseas reviews of the book.
Most have quoted these words written by Gandhi to one Hermann Kallenbach from Mr. Lelyveld's book: "How completely you have taken possession of my body. This is slavery with a vengeance."
A rather inflammatory review in this newspaper included mention of the passages and quotes relating to Kallenbach as part of a larger polemic on Gandhi that concluded with the suggestion that the man credited with being the architect of India's freedom struggle didn't really achieve all that much since the British were sick of India and departing anyway.
"As Mr. Lelyveld makes abundantly clear, Gandhi's organ probably only rarely became aroused with his naked young ladies, because the love of his life was a German-Jewish architect and bodybuilder, Hermann Kallenbach, for whom Gandhi left his wife in 1908," wrote Andrew Roberts, in a review of the book that categorizes a long list of Gandhi's failings, managing even to work in a mention of the fact that he (Gandhi, not Mr. Roberts, we hasten to add) once suffered from hemorrhoids.
At one point Mr. Roberts notes: "Gandhi denounced lawyers, railways and parliamentary politics, even though he was a professional lawyer who constantly used railways to get to meetings to argue that India deserved its own parliament." Oh, the hypocrisy.
In India, meanwhile, Gandhi relatives and historians have said they are upset by the interpretation of Gandhi's letters to Kallenbach, although it's not clear whether they're upset by the suggestion of homosexuality or by the suggestion that he was cheating on his loyal wife. There has been less reaction to quotes in the book in which Gandhi expresses racist attitudes to black South Africans.
The Mail Today quoted Tushar Gandhi, a great-grandson, as saying Western writers have a "morbid fascination" with Gandhi's sexuality—although this is no doubt because of Gandhi's own repressive attitude towards sex and his adoption of celibacy even though he was married.
"It also helps that no matter what you write about him, there are no repercussions. Let them write such things about a Muslim or a Dalit leader," said Mr. Gandhi. "It is always open season with Gandhi."
In another piece in the same paper, writer Sourish Bhattacharyya quoted from a letter in which a jailed Gandhi expressed distress over his inability to come and help his ill wife to conclude that "these are not the words of a man who had deserted his wife to be with his ‘male lover.'" (It is not clear to this writer why feeling concern for his wife's health would be conclusive proof against a relationship with Kallenbach.)
