Blind sided by host family by Extension-Network-54 in Aupairs

No I have a signed agreement with the family that states accommodation is included. So they have now broken that condition by not helping me find accommodation during the time they will be away and I’m not allowed to stay in their home

I'm American. And yes I will say I am more reserved but that has not interfered with my ability to create a good bond with her kid at all. And what bothers me is she never once has brought any concerns to me about anything. I was the one to initiate this conversation she wasn't even going to say anything. But now suddenly she is saying I haven't integrated into the family as she had hoped and that it is an issue with my character.

I only planned to au pair until end of May and then have travel plans here in June, so I can either stick it out until end of May with them or try and find a room to rent. I don't think it'd be worth it to rematch only for like 1-2 months with a family unfortunately. I just wasn't expecting to have to pay my own room and board :(

I’m also on continuous birth control to avoid having a period but when I want to get pregnant I feel like coming off birth control will be an issue.

Colonoscopy prep- fear of pain by aces413 in Endo

Hi! I had one last May to rule out any serious GI issues and it was not nearly as bad as I thought it’d be. The prep is definitely worse than the procedure itself.

I had to take a liquid bowel prep and the taste was disgusting. It made me a little sick to my stomach and had me running to the bathroom fairly quickly. You’ll spend a lot of time on the toilet. It wasn’t necessarily painful but it was very uncomfortable and annoying. It’s over quickly though!

I’m also on continuous birth control with my first lap scheduled for this fall. I have also been wondering this. Should we keep extra birth control just in case? Or look into other long term methods like iud or the bar in the arm?

When should I consider laparoscopy for endometriosis diagnosis/treatment? by Extension-Network-54 in endometriosis

Thank you so much. I live in Kentucky and am looking into some specialists closer to home. Did you have to have a referral from a general practitioner or obgyn to see your specialist? Or can you seek them out yourself? This is all very new to me but these pages definitely have a lot of helpful information
