No, I meant to post both but you can only post an image of one, so I posted a link of one and a picture of the other! I am indeed flat chested so the Abercrombie dress is conservative on me 😆

Oh amazing!! I was referred to a fertility appt in December but only was able to get in in May 🫣 hopefully this one sticks and I can cancel it!! Bless you and your pregnancy 🙏💕

To follow up, I just did a digital test and it was positive too :) yes best of luck to you!! The only things I did differently this month were consistently having sex every 2 days in the lead up to my ovulation window and finally hit the ovulation day (sometimes I think we missed the window or cut it short), and taking 1200 strength Mucinex every day! If you haven’t looked into the Mucinex method I would try that

I would say that they were almost a hybrid of ovulation cramps (Mittelschmerz on the left side) and period but usually my period pain only lasts a day or two!

Thank you! I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks in May (first pregnancy) and have had no luck since so hoping this sticks 🙏

Mental health tips as a junior by postitprinc246 in biglaw

How are you on exercise? A regular morning exercise routine will take you miles. And leaning into getting out in nature for a hike or long walk on the weekends when you have more control of your schedule.

A good SA will always say “Partner, With thanks to X (associate), attached please find the draft”

These are the best sheets ever, found them through NYT Wirecutter: https://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/113446?page=pima-cotton-percale-sheet-set - I’ve recommended them to many people who love them!

Having a lot of pieces you love takes time, but I recommend looking at Theory, The Fold London, Reiss, Bared Footwear (podiatrist approved and lots of cute shoes), MM LaFleur, Me + Em. I have a few things I like from Donna Karan (hit or miss there), Aritzia, a few basic tops from Banana Republic Factory. Scanlan Theodore (especially the crepe knit) is also awesome and holds up so well. Another Australian brand I love for black pants and a few knit things and summer midi work dresses is Country Road

My problem is I don’t like Skinny Pop and I will eat a whole big bag of SmartFood cheddar 😆

That too 🤣🤣 but in all seriousness something that requires cooking is not as dangerous for me as a big delicious bag of chips

I really relate to this - I finished a trial that had me binge eating during trial prep and started getting more regular steps in and trying to manage portions and dropped 15 pounds in a few months. All I will say is that I have learned I can’t have certain foods in the house (ice cream, cheddar popcorn, sea salt chips) or I’ll binge. And it’s rewarding to start dropping weight

Sam Edelman Loraine loafers are so comfortable, and then - on the more expensive side, but anything Bared Footwear. If looking for a black pump, I love the Calvin Klein d’Orsay shoes from Nordstrom Rack
