[QUOTE="justanobody, post: 4522665, member: 70778"] Not very different than when she wasn't pregnant, but she was always a PITA, so the pregnancy and complaining about being at the game during it gave us good reason to remove her from the game. If she wasn't wanting to be there in the first place, then she shouldn't have just followed to boyfriend thinking he was using D&D as an excuse to flirt.....with a bunch of sweaty men. :eek: He returned, and the character was written off. Eaten by something or fell over a cliff and the party just decided not to risk themselves for the character. Don't recall which happened due to departure, and which happened due to her general attitude. Babyproofing the game, no breast feeding rule came into play. Also games began to be held at the house of the baby because nobody else wanted the diapers in their homes. The baby added little extra noise to the game and caused the mother PC to be absent during play to tend to those things mentioned and the SO would take care of the character. More breaks had to be taken during the game to accommodate air relief for the players and the baby, as indoors became a no smoking zone. this of course was not the same person that was pregnant while playing, but a different one that had recently joined after delivering. Babies aren't as problematic as toddlers that will be crawling all over everything and worse those that grab things an run that are dangerous around the game table. Metal miniatures that are lead with enamel paint for example. You do have to sacrifice for younger kids in the vicinity. Leave a "beverage" sitting for a minute, and what will a kid do with any drink? Pick it up and drink it the one second nobody has their eyes on it! :mad: [/QUOTE]
