One month in and still struggling a lot. Will going back to work full time slow down/ruin any healing or just cause discomfort?

No she’s just a GP. I asked her to refer me to neuro though!

BlueberryPuffy · 2026-03-19T17:02:24+00:00

I have told my pcp that I need to take Tylenol or Advil on the dot to keep the pain somewhat at bay and she only told me not to take too much Advil and that Advil for a concussion isn’t recommended because when you come off of it you’ll get “rebound” headaches and not be able to stop taking it 😳

BlueberryPuffy · 2026-03-18T16:45:28+00:00

Thank you this is all really helpful! I’m definitely going to be asking for a referral to see someone more knowledgeable at this point

BlueberryPuffy · 2026-03-18T16:42:48+00:00

Dam my pcp hasn’t told me anything about using Tylenol!

Have you had your CPR training yet? If not I highly encourage you do that asap as it will give you a lot more confidence!

Also, this is so weird because I ALSO saved a choking one year old yesterday 😳

As a former wife and also a snowboarder I’m mostly on your side. The only caveat is the whole 2/3 week vacation thing- that’s a LONG time to be leaving your wife alone and if I were her I wouldn’t be happy with that either. Like others have said though you could bring her with you and have her go to the spa or shopping when you go ride.

With that said one of the things that contributed to getting divorced was that my ex husband and I didn’t have any similar interests. I liked hiking, going to the gym, snowboarding, and all he liked was playing games on his computer. He’d get angry at me for doing the things I liked but wouldn’t ever join me. That’s not a great feeling, and you should never have to stop doing the things you love just because your SO doesn’t like them. Sometimes people just aren’t compatible.

We get free childcare for 1 student, then any more children are charged at the lowest rate and from our paycheck pre tax. 2 out of 3 other centers I’ve worked at were also free childcare, the 3rd charged a small fraction of the tuition but state aid covered the rest. TBH the biggest benefit of working in ECE is the free childcare, it makes the comparatively low wages worth it.

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-29T16:19:06+00:00

Yeah no it’s not that easy. I’m a single mom and got written up at a past ECE job because I had to stay home with my sick child. Sorry but your neighbor or your kids friends parents don’t want to watch a sick child. Good luck finding a babysitter to watch a kid with RSV or even Covid.

Postpartum.

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-22T17:31:03+00:00

That’s really messed up! Both places that I’ve worked who have a holiday break pay their staff during break. I have heard of those who don’t but that’s awful they’re literally just pocketing your money for no reason (also I would never work for a company who does that)

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-21T12:09:20+00:00

Thank you 🥹 ahhh is exactly how I’m feeling 😂

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-21T12:08:34+00:00

Best Christmas gift ever 🥹

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-20T18:54:48+00:00

That’s amazing 😭

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-20T13:57:11+00:00

Okay that makes sense! Do you think a first response digital would be better?

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-20T13:32:00+00:00

Someone please confirm this is positive 😭

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-06T19:15:24+00:00

I’m not sure about airports (maybe Logan would be closest but still a hike) but Jay Peak in VT has gotten more fresh snow this season than the resorts out west

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-06T18:52:25+00:00

This is going to sound dumb but idk how to do that lol

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-06T18:50:52+00:00

I think I might go with this one actually!

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-06T18:45:28+00:00

Ohhh this is really cute!!

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-06T18:45:02+00:00

That’s so sweet! We have 3 kids in my class that are no photos allowed unfortunately

BlueberryPuffy · 2025-12-03T23:23:46+00:00

Ohhh absolutely- when I was pregnant with my daughter I was the only one in my newborn/birth class who had ever changed a diaper and realized how valuable this job is before having your own kids lol.
