TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Amazing new technology is being invented to monitor your unborn baby… from your smartphone
Think about when you were pregnant and going to all those doctor’s appointments for ultrasounds and updates. Now imaging you could check in on your baby at any time during your pregnancy right on your smartphone!
That could be the future. A group of MIT engineers have invented a new technology which is a stamp-sized sticker you place on your body while pregnant. It then sends high resolution photos to your phone of the fetus, the heart, lungs, organs, and could potentially even diagnose any health issues right away.
Just an unbelievable advancement for the medical world and possibly the future of pregnancy.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Who wrote the original Happy Birthday song?
Today is my birthday. Thank you, thank you, for all bday wishes. Anna and Raven even sang me happy birthday earlier today. Which got me thinking. Who wrote the birthday song?
The song’s melody was created as a school teachers’ greeting song titled “Good Morning to All”, which was composed by two American sisters name Mildred and Patty Hill way back in 1893.
The first “Happy Birthday to You” lyrics happened in 1912 but no one was credited with the writing of them. The version we all sing today was written in a songbook by a guy named Robert Coleman in 1924.
All these years later… and it’s never changed. Happy Birthday to me!
