But then, I'm biased toward blue hair. :) Been waiting until after birth to dye mine again.

Is that because of warmings that hair dye migrating through your scalp, through your blood, through the placenta, into your critter? If so, I can tell you that that particular (idiotic) recommendation has been withdrawn. Pregnant women are no longer told to avoid dying their hair.

It's mostly because I don't want to bleach my hair while I'm pregnant. I don't think the bleach will seep into Sparrow, but I *am* sensitive to it at the best of times, and understand that the current state of my immune system is best described as "compromised."

I do many things that people are biased against pregnant women doing, but just don't care enough about having blue hair to make my scalp super extra itchy for a while.

I used to say "My immune system isn't compromised, exactly. It's *busy*." Which wasn't medically true but served to amuse me.

I did all sorts of things that pregnant women aren't supposed to do, either. I have a lovely rant about the dangers of foods that might contain listeria and therefore don't eat them!!! as compared to the dangers of amnio which is a perfectly fine and acceptable procedure. Except that the risk of fetal death from amnio is 30-60 times greater than from listeriosis (0.25-0.5% vs 0.0083%).

I think the colors in your icon are awesome. Do those again.

Which of my friends is most likely to be able to invent and produce one? Might be you. Get on that. :)
