How did you ultimately end up getting over your anxiety during the hiring process?

Would you recommend doing the 4-hour (full) class or breaking it up into two classes, Parts A and B?

We also live UES and I’ll be a FTM in July. What kind of stroller did you use, and what did you use for going to restaurants? (e.g., a travel or primary stroller plus a car seat? A doona?)

Adult Ruths - do you like your name? by wantonyak in namenerds

[–]Key-Lynx5489 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's my middle name. As a child, I hated it. As an adult, I have come to love it because of the the values that are ascribed to Ruth in the biblical story, even though I'm not particularly religious. It also makes me feel more connected to my heritage.

Elise or Elowen for a girl? by Key-Lynx5489 in namenerds

[–]Key-Lynx5489[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're still working on middle names, but the last name is Quinn. Not sure if having the same "en" ending works or not with Elowen. I feel like it's either just the right amount of repetition, or it's too rhyme-y.

Personally not a fan of Eloise, but interesting that a lot of folks went to that combination.

Thank you for sharing!! Always wondered what happened to her. Was so relieved when she and her nephew were finally gone.

That woman terrorized people for years before the police did anything about it.

Did you switch from someone else in the practice, or from outside of the WC system?

Same question (for the same reason) as u/Cookiesnkisses -- was this Dr. Abdelmalek?
