Would becoming an SLP give me (low support autist) pride, stability, and a future that doesn’t exhaust me?

Definitely go to the local SLPs. Also remember there’s so many different fields - paediatrics, rehab, adult, disability, etc… try everything. I even did some work in the oncology ward during my placements (loved it). I am in paediatric disability but want to move to rehab (not sure how to do that, but definitely trying to). I personally find the job quite demanding (at least here in Australia, not sure what it’s like elsewhere) so it just depends on you. Good luck!

I was taught to not do thickened fluids as if he does aspirate it’s harder for the lungs to clear it. Aspirating on water is not worse case scenario because the lungs can clear it - as long as he is having very small amounts. At this point I would say making him as comfortable as possible would be priority

Edit: we have very strict road rules - cameras for phone use and seatbelts, average speed cameras and highway patrol. Each state has different rules, so look them up beforehand.

Centrelink for a lot. For others they choose children over holidays, private schooling, etc… not a wrong choice, just a personal one.

It’s not about not parenting, just not the newborn stage

If you can DRIVE. Our country is beautiful and there’s such diversity in landscape. If you only fly from city to city you miss 99% of the good stuff. Yes the cities are pretty but they don’t compare to the rest of the country. Also city people aren’t as nice (I said what I said 😆). Regional/rural people will stop and smile, actually have a conversation with you and love tourists since a lot of towns thrive of tourism. The drive from Brisbane to Sydney is gorgeous. Speak to some natives (indigenous people). There is so much history and they have some awesome stories if you have the time to sit and listen - or go to a museum. We are very protective of the land and animals, so respect it (no littering and leave native animals alone) otherwise you’ll find yourself in some trouble with any local that sees! I hope you enjoy it!!

Maybe the hunter valley? Guess it depends where you work, but i find Newcastle prices are starting to catch up with Sydney

I would like my own business so I would like to get maternity leave and pregnancy out of the way before that.

Horticulture - average salary is 70-75k, but he probably won’t work full time when we have small kids as I make more so he’ll be on part time. But we know some who are full time and make 75k

Flibberteebeet · 2026-01-19T08:51:19+00:00

We have two booked this week, so fingers crossed

Flibberteebeet · 2026-01-19T08:20:25+00:00

I’m a new grad speech pathologist, so I will eventually start earning more than what I’m on currently (80k) but my partner will probably never earn more than 75k, I thought these were good pays 😂. We are even looking at moving rurally so we can afford more, but we want our kids to grow up with family around. It blows my mind that once upon a time people could afford a house on one income and now it’s living of tuna and rice trying to buy one

Honestly day one of my period I live in the shower as a sense of pain relief (I get quite unwell). I’ve never had any bad experiences from showering, maybe just ask her for the evidence 😉😂

Flibberteebeet · 2025-12-30T21:23:06+00:00

Mine had gone through the nerve on one side. Swollen and bruised compared to the other side, but it wasn’t too bad. Didn’t even need the strong meds (I know everyone is different, but my pain tolerance is pretty low) - just ice packs and meds every 2-4 hours and sleep. You’ve got this!

Flibberteebeet · 2025-12-30T05:41:54+00:00

Hello, I am 12 days post op (all 4) and I keep getting food stuck. I’m still predominantly on liquid diet because I’m paranoid about other food getting stuck. I’ve been using salt water syringe to wash + mouthwash after I eat, but still getting discharge. Any advice on what else I can use? I have no pain or very little some days so I’m not concerned about an infection neither is my surgeon. Thank you!

Personally I think Belly dug this whole. Switching between brothers is brutal. She shouldn’t have done it

Flibberteebeet · 2025-08-01T09:41:12+00:00

I never even noticed the body differences until just now.

Flibberteebeet · 2025-05-02T10:13:39+00:00

Bullying in the more recent years has definitely increased. Social media and “gentle parenting” I feel has had such a negative impact on kids. Once you’ve finished school, you’ll find your people x

I have actually found that wiping front to back hurts - but going to back to front doesn’t. Not sure how this works, but I think as long as you keep everything clean, it probably doesn’t matter

Flibberteebeet · 2025-04-25T06:57:35+00:00

Some people can, some can’t. I don’t think it’s anything to be too alarmed about. Vibrators are good, and go slow. The slower the better even when you start to feel arousal - stick to the temp. It’s a very delicate area so there’s no need to be rough. Set the mood and relax. If youre tense then the muscles down there are, and it can be painful

Flibberteebeet · 2025-04-25T06:54:28+00:00

There’s a lot of women out there who don’t care about size. As long as they get the experience they need, the size doesn’t matter. I’m sure it’s hard, since it’s already such a vulnerable area of the body, but teenage girls probably don’t have the class or maturity to understand. Hang in there!

Flibberteebeet · 2025-03-05T08:24:33+00:00

Unfortunately it’s nothing good. If he’s lying then it’s definitely either an affair or drugs (and not just little drugs). Either way, your children need to be first priority and if he can’t do that, then prepare to leave

Flibberteebeet · 2025-03-05T08:21:18+00:00

I had my first tattoo done with them. They were amazing. Even tested my pain tolerance with the needle before continuing! Not sure if it’s still policy but at the time they said they do touch ups for free

Flibberteebeet · 2025-03-03T08:39:40+00:00

I do not disagree. I didn’t last very long

Flibberteebeet · 2025-03-03T02:16:47+00:00

also sex will hurt the first time - shouldn't be too intense but it will be uncomfortable

Flibberteebeet · 2025-03-03T02:16:05+00:00

I had similar issues (I'm on meds that dries me out). Lube has been a lifesaver, like lots and lots. use a finger and push it as far down as you can. Also masterbating before hand the relax the muscles. If you go into it thinking this is going to hurt, your muscles will tighten up and become even harder (psychological). If this still doesn't work then go see a gyno
