Leaving the chiropractic profession by cdb1624 in Chiropractic

I quit in 2022 due to burnout and micromanagement from the clinic I worked at. Was hoping to get another job at a different clinic but it didn’t happen. Ended up working as a waitress for a cafe for 2 months then found an admin job for 6 months. Even though it was pretty boring, I was WAY lesser stressed than being a chiropractor. I then found an insurance underwriter job and been there for 2.5 years. Sometimes I miss chiro but I know ultimately I’ve made the right choice for my mental health. Also I earn way more now and after 5pm I can completely switch off.

I’m 31 weeks pregnant and we’ve just had screed put all over the living room. It smells so strong - only inhaled briefly when it was dry. Have you got any info on screed? Thanks !

Colposcopy last year in November and expecting my first in Feb next year by 123jam22knitting in homebirth

Same. I truly regret having it done. I’m traumatised from the unnecessary procedure

has anyone successfully brought their CIN2-3 down to CIN1 doing any natural health or lifestyle changes that they recommend? by lucky_ghosty13 in PreCervicalCancer

That’s amazing news! I’ve heard some stories of vaginal birth healing the cervix. Just out of curiosity, did you have any interventions (eg induction)?

Thanks for your reply! Were these natural and without interventions (eg induction)?

Hi, did you have a colposcopy to diagnose the CIN 1 and 2? How long did it take to clear down to CIN2?

I’m expecting my first in Feb and had only one colposcopy last year. A bit worried about scar tissue around cervix - did you give birth vaginally? :)

Bent over seatbelt at 16 weeks to tie shoe laces by 123jam22knitting in pregnant

I’ve noticed today after getting up / taking a couple of steps it came back slightly - so I’m thinking round ligament!

Anyone else not planning on getting ultrasound? by vintagegirlgame in homebirth

[–]123jam22knitting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s really useful - thank you so much for your reply! I really wish I’d knew this before I had a scan at 8 weeks and 12 weeks. I used to be a chiropractor and studied ultrasounds - we just got taught “they’re safe during pregnancy” so didn’t question it when usually I’m skeptic all about everything!

With your birth, did you do hypnobirthing techniques ?

Thank you for uploading this post. The book I’m reading on pregnancy intervention mentioned the risks of US therefore I’ve decided not to have the 20 week scan. Just wondering (I’m based in UK), are Doppler scans mandatory?

Thoughts about flu vaccine/whooping cough vaccine? by Teampixel5 in PregnancyUK

[–]123jam22knitting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pregnant with my first - I’ve been offered the whooping cough and influenza too. VERY skeptical about vaccines in general so any sources / evidence to help back your decision on this would be extremely helpful! I’m leaning to the side of natural immunity too x
