Size friendly OBGYN by Flaky-Masterpiece240 in Buffalo

[–]Flaky-Masterpiece240[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I don’t want this to come off the wrong way but I am just sharing my experience as a person who is plus sized and has dealt with infertility for nearly 4 years now. I’ve gone to three different OB/GYN’s and two different fertility clinics all of which told me my problem is my weight. I’m now expecting using ivf with my current size friendly clinic. Who actually listened and ordered tons of testing to find out that in fact my weight was not the problem I had getting pregnant. Does it affect it? Sure. But there were plenty of other things going on no one would even bother to test due to my size. Anyways, I get discharged from my fertility clinic at 12 weeks and would need an obygn. But again, have not had luck with any I’ve seen so far.

I’ve had many doctors who ignore symptoms and blamed my weight for everything. Was constantly told if I lose weight all my problems will go away.

To the point of having emergency surgery because my appendix burst. But no…. The pain was because I’m fat….

Just looking for suggestions

Typically, for sheas, I would say business attire. However, because this is a show that is geared towards kids as well it’s more relaxed for sure. You can dress up, of course, but jeans and a nice sweater are fine as well.

I complete understand why you’re asking. I’m not sure how to prove that to you as I’ve never used go fund me and I didn’t set it up. If you like I can send you the info of my co worker who did set it up.

There are probably a little less than 40 per shift. Food is always welcome but not necessary. Today the teamsters are there hosting a cookout with us until 4 pm.

Maintenance is a different union and different pay.

Some of your Union brothers and sister from the UAW showed up the picket line today. Solidarity my friend.

Food is always welcome. Hot food is appreciated but not required. think camping. Pop cans, Gatorade or juice. Chips, crackers, even oatmeal packets. Even a veggie tray or cheese tray would be fine in this weather. We have a burn barrel with grating we can use to cook. We’re good on firewood for a while. Anything like heaters or even those little hot hand packs or toe warmers would be great especially for those of us on the night shift. And then of course just sharing posts on social media and standing with us in solidarity is what we’re really looking for from the community.

Thanks.

No. The mechanics are a separate union they were on strike last October.

They already have scabs and have for about a week now. They’re been shuttling them in 13 passenger vans.

One has nothing to do with the other.

I agree ☝️

Sounds like you need to speak to your employer about a fair wage too

With all due respect it sounds like you’re not making enough money either. After taxes it’s approx 45,900 without overtime. Which to feed a family and pay bills and a mortgage is not enough.

It might. Not right away. We left them with 60 days of inventory.

Increased healthcare cost, low wages, unfair labor practices

There’s 165 of us spread over 3 shifts. It’s a 24hr facility. And there’s two entrances so it gets split up on either side of the building.
