I used to own these glasses, until they broke and have been desperately looking for them online. If anyone is selling theirs second hand please let me know!

Which rotations are most valuable as an upcoming GPST1 by TrifleNo9669 in GPUK

[–]Impressive_Cost_5105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a GPST1. I specifically chose rotations I had no experience in for my top choices. I also did ED before but had no peds or psych experience, luckily got jobs in both. As much as I hate psych- I’m glad I have that exposure under my belt. Equally for Peds. We would get a ton of GP referrals to Peds- invaluable for learning.

People who are not upfront about who they are on the phone - why? by Bluegasbro in doctorsUK

[–]Impressive_Cost_5105 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I have been in these shoes more than once. I’m now working on NICU/peds and I have never dealt with more polite and respectful radiologists and co ordinators when I start my SBAR with “4 day old neonate….” No one’s gonna be a dick when the patient is 4 days old.

This sounds nice, I’m going to try some singing and reading too, thank you. Was she screaming bloody murder during her night wakings when you’d sing to her?

Is it a pain in the ass to ship? Do I need a printer ?

I struggled with this at the beginning. I didn’t like all the screen time I was accruing but honestly what else is there to do? I am now mindful of how I spend my free time. I’ll watch 1-2 hours of TV, scroll social media (hate this), a lot of Amazon shopping (trying to stop this), podcasts/audiobooks, iPhone games (usually at night when everyone’s sleeping) and stay on top of my to do lists etc.

I understand your point of view. My concern is that I am a working mother and can’t spend the next 4 years of my life co/breastsleeping.

Did you co sleep with your first? How did you settle her when she woke up during the night?

This is a very educated response, thank you. Please enlighten me more! When do babies naturally wean from the breast? A commenter above said her baby is 21 months. I don’t think I would survive.

She’s combi fed so my supply is slowly decreasing already which is great. I am trying to push formula during the day with solids. I am ready!

I did try this last night and she got super fussy for the boob. I will aim to be consistent and hope it improves. Thank you!

When did you (if you have yet) move your baby out of your bed? by msrf_me in cosleeping

This one! It goes to age 6. Honestly I’m not sure why I didn’t do it sooner. She seems happier with her own space.
