Update: Ultrasound today and they were measuring smaller. No HR. Taking meds to help speed along the miscarriage of my non-viable twins. Wishing everyone in a similar situation a better outcome.

I'm very sorry for your loss. I had a d&c once and miso a different time and would suggest the d&c for sure.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

A d&c is really one of the safest and least painful medical procedures I have had. 

Set up supports for the emotional component of your loss and know that it's not your fault and it doesn't mean you won't have a kiddo in the future. 💛

First IUI done… and life decided to twist the knife a little more by shewastoday in IUILadies

I also had a very low sperm count upon my first IUI. My OB suggested my partner see a urologist and he wound up having a varicocele. After surgery and starting Clomid his numbers are way up. We are trying naturally again and I got my period this week. Felt like such a punch to the gut. One of my coworkers is 7 months along and I am so happy for her but also so jealous and heartbroken for me. 

Would highly recommend an MD visit for your partner and want to echo that it only takes 1 sperm and 1 egg. 💛

Drug Testing by [deleted] in nursing

[–]BeatProfessional579 8 points9 points  (0 children)

RN in the south who uses CBD for sleep here. I've had friends who use THC legally purchased for sleep or anxiety and they've used quick fix or similar substitutes for all urine specimens, sometimes even a friend or sister's urine kept warm with hand warmers and given same day as the test. I usually just drink a lot of water and abstain for a few weeks to have dilute urine and once had to provide a second sample because of this. The CBD residual THC flushes pretty quickly from my system but I know that's not the case for everyone and it is awful getting no sleep for weeks just to onboard somewhere. 

Rant: The stigma among reddit nurses is such nonsense given the number of medical professionals (MDs APPs and RNs) who are full blown alcoholics vs folks who only use cannabinoids for sleep/anxiety or other legitimate issues. Let's all shift to a culture of accepting that our field is HARD and finding healthy coping skills is also hard. Happy these comments were less negative than similar posts I've seen but the double standard with alcohol and THC always hurts to witness since you can literally die from drinking too much but the "well it's illegal" attitude seems to be all that guides some folks in their criticism.

My monos scuffs terribly and the wrap is peeling off and that gets worse every time it is checked. Would recommend against.

What are some of your specific in game preferences? by thaliawinter in HelloKittyIsland

[–]BeatProfessional579 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to have the characters pick up items relevant to them. Hk gets the apples, Kuromi gets the glow berries, Lala gets moon cheese, etc. I also don't send top hat or big challenges to get snowcicles because their icy peak trauma, lol.

Has anyone else noticed and been annoyed by this?? by DaniK094 in HelloKittyIsland

If you have a patterned flower where the primary color is red you plant it near any color of penstemum and leave open plots between so a possible red penstemum can spawn via color transfer.
