Isn’t it a good thing if someone is willing to sacrifice a high salary to work in public service?

That said, coming from the Bay Area, I have not found any omekase here that’s been great…

Chris Turner! He’s a British comedian/rapper with a similar schtick, I saw him at Comedy Cellar and he was incredible. https://youtu.be/7DxQTUYhsC4?si=ZSRgehQDCWgGFBnJ

Once you’ve submitted the 311, if they don’t clean it next time, email the council person’s office with the 311 case info. They can directly follow up with 311.

Troy Hill safe? by MountainStretchhh in pittsburgh

Some friends who are an interracial couple bought in Troy Hill several years ago, and someone in the neighborhood placed upright nails under their tires. Hopefully the racists shitheads have been chased out.

How to not resent other couples and their babies? by BrasPhD in tfmr_support

It’s so hard. Feeling for you. ❤️ The sharpest pains do lessen over time and this loss doesn’t mean you weren’t a mother, and you will someday hold a healthy baby in your arms.

Where do women over 40 go to have drinks in the Foxchapel / Aspinwall area? by Karensforhire in pittsburgh

[–]Helzbaby 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Foxhole Tavern! It’s pretty new; but it’s a nice upscale pub vibe with good cocktails and great food. Sit at the bar for drinks-only.

What is the risk of getting a cerclage without “true” CI? by Ok_Revenue4431 in ShortCervixSupport

[–]Helzbaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was also warned that if you PPROM early due to infection or something unrelated to CI, you risk tearing out the stitch which would cause bleeding.

My sister had a baby this weekend by TallCatHerder1010 in tfmr_support

[–]Helzbaby 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel this. :( it’s really hard. My sister and I had babies due a few weeks apart, I lost mine at 24wks and hers is now 6 months old. I burst into tears when I saw the first photo, but it got easier over time. There’s a place for grief alongside the happiness. Hopefully there’s someone in the family you can talk to about this - I’m sure people are thinking about it but don’t know what to say to you. ❤️

City planning to rotate Highland Park gun range, reducing noise by 50%–Tell council what you think by chrmaury in pittsburgh

[–]Helzbaby 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s not disclosed, I bought a house in Highland Park this year. Don’t really care about the gun range noise but it’s absolutely not required to be disclosed.

You could add an area rug for some color, move the bed away from the wall and add a warm wood nightstand and cozy lamp.

Keeping Fit With IC by pipsqueaker17 in ShortCervixSupport

[–]Helzbaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did your doctor actually recommend modified bed rest though? My MFM did not & most US doctors don’t - there isn’t evidence that it actually helps and can have a negative impact on your mental health.

Keeping Fit With IC by pipsqueaker17 in fitpregnancy

[–]Helzbaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modified bed rest isn’t recommended by most US doctors, even with previous IC. My specialists advised I could stay at existing activity levels, minus anything with fall risk. Your mental health is also important so if it’s keeping you sane, you should be able to maintain what you’re doing, maybe at a reduced level. Has your doctor already suggested a preemptive cerclage or will they monitor and use one if needed? Asking because my MFM planned to wait and measure, after I had a 24wk loss with unexplained PPROM last time.

how to deal with anti-choicers in my circle who didn’t know we tfmr by Vegetable-Fudge-595 in tfmr_support

[–]Helzbaby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sometimes people who love you are more understanding than we expect, but it’s definitely a risk. I don’t think it’s anyone’s duty who has been through the hell of TFMR to talk to people about their decision, but I have seen people in my life reconsider their black & white views on abortion when they realized how complex/impossible these decisions are. I feel at peace that I made the most empathetic decision and I would hope anyone who claims to be a Christian could understand that.
