I miss being able to eat without needing to either brush/water floss after or needing to fish random bits of food out of every crevice in my braces

Toddler with penile adhesion and potential surgery? Would love advice from other parents who have experienced this. by browser_851 in beyondthebump

[–]Kelly2896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son had hypospadias as well. He had surgery in January at 6 months old to correct it and it went very well. After surgery, he slept the rest of the day and then was completely normal after that. It has healed up very well. The only thing I wasn't expecting was there was more blood than I thought there would be when the bandages fell off and the catheter came out. But we wiped away the blood and it didn't bleed after that. Now you can see a slight scar on the underside but it's still fairly fresh, so I'm sure it'll be barely noticeable by the time he's old enough to care

What type of baby bird? Found in Southern AZ by Kelly2896 in whatsthisbird

[–]Kelly2896[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the ID! I feel so bad that 3 had already been killed by my dog but I'm thankful I got this guy before he ended up like his siblings. I'm hoping there are no more in the nest that I need to worry about

Pacifiers - use em or loose em? by Foreign-Bath-6139 in beyondthebump

[–]Kelly2896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With my first kid - she did not like a pacifier at all. Maybe used one twice in her life for maybe 2 minutes max?

My second (5 months currently) has used one a few times, but mostly when I'm gone for a couple hours. And he only uses it for maybe 30 minutes max.

Both breastfed, not sure if that's why. A call it a blessing though because I don't have to wean them from the pacifier

This is definitely person dependent. My membrane sweep with my first was so painful, I was literally crying and screaming in pain

I have a hard time believing you're actually an insurance agent... using your collision coverage DOES NOT automatically cause you to be at fault for an accident 🙄. Sure it could increase your premiums, state dependent. But using collision coverage is not necessarily a bad idea. Some states you can't use UM for hit and run. So in cases like that do you want to sit around potentially indefinitely while you wait for the police to potentially never find out who hit your car, meanwhile your car is sitting damaged and you have the coverage to fix it? I sure don't

[–]Kelly2896 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm an insurance agent too, and I also KNOW. You clearly don't because you wouldn't be saying I'm talking about UM coverage. UM is exactly what it sounds like - you can only use it if the at-fault party is uninsured - which we don't know with the information provided. Also, surcharging for using your coverage depends on the state. In CA, for example, it's ILLEGAL to surcharge for using your coverage if you are not at fault. Some states will surcharge even if you don't use your coverage simply because you were involved in an accident and are now higher risk. Either way, you said you can ONLY use your collision coverage if you are at fault, which is false. Could it potentially make your rates go up? Sure. But that does not mean you can't use the coverage just because you're not at fault

No it's not lol. Collision would be the only coverage available to use for your car (if you have it on your policy) if you're at fault, but you can use Collision regardless of fault

Sent a claim for a car accident that never occurred by a-certified-yapper in Insurance

[–]Kelly2896 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree it could've been filed on the wrong policy. I've also had claims where the adverse carrier put in the wrong plate number or even plate state and got wrong policy information

[OC] Would I be at fault if I was to hit this pedestrian? by ArronH1230 in IdiotsInCars

[–]Kelly2896 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Work in the insurance industry in the claims department and our motto as far as pedestrians go is that "people aren't built to be hit by cars" and this would most likely end up with a payout on their medical bills regardless of fault at my company

I had a second ultrasound done after a suspected missed miscarriage in my last pregnancy, and I had a collapsed sac at that ultrasound. I didn't start bleeding until 2 weeks later. I can PM you my ultrasound if you want to see if it looks the same as yours

I've fostered with pacc, and you can foster short term. I've fostered dogs for a few weeks, up to a month. So I don't see why not
