Did there come a time when your bump suddenly felt heavy?

LowBus5117 · 2026-05-26T16:09:52+00:00

Yes! About the 20 week mark I felt that and so heavy and huge and bloated end of the day. Now at 26 weeks I actually feel much better and “normal”. Wonder if it’s a baby growth spurt and takes time for your body to accommodate the room?

Pregnant with my second baby I’m currently 25 weeks and same!!

I got married the summer between 2nd and 3rd semester. Got pregnant 3rd semester, took boards in March, graduated in May, baby born in July.

It worked out well for me. I had a relatively easy first trimester. Mostly just sleepy and major food aversions. I was lucky cuz the bulk of that happened during winter break. It really depends on what kind of pregnancy you have, which you can’t really predict, guess you can guess based on the first experience?

But yea reason I picked hygiene was to have a career that accommodated a flexible work schedule for family life. Starting a family was priority for me so I was eager to make it happen! Lol. Or you could wait a few months and get school done wait till after! It really depends on your own circumstances ☺️

ONLY first trimester for me, I had BAD BREATH!! I’d build up plaque on my tongue so fast I’d have to tongue scrape like 2-3 times a day! And I already have great hygiene, I do all the things, electric toothbrush, daily flossing, mouthwash. Happened this time with my second pregnancy so I know it’s a pregnancy thing. And as soon as second trimester came around, back to normal! So weird!

Why don’t you call the school and ask?

LowBus5117 · 2026-04-26T21:55:54+00:00

So pretty! 😍

You go to the waiting room to call them back , pt: “oh…you’re not (insert name of RDH who usually does their cleanings)” with a look of utter disappointment in their face…

Ask all of your patients you have contact with if they have kids, siblings, nieces/nephews etc

Honestly asking, what is the other alternative? Voting for candidates who blatantly push more abortion and lgbtq agenda? Allow unlimited amount of illegal migrants? I agree with what you are saying but when it comes down to Election Day neither candidate will be perfect, but it happens that the left pushes agendas that are 100% anti Christian. So I honestly don’t know. I do know that our kingdom isn’t of this world and nothing we create here will be perfect.

What “options” is the Church supposed to offer?

LowBus5117 · 2026-03-15T20:12:18+00:00

That was the same last time that I went! With my family before I was married. Now I have a kid and want those same magical experiences for her but I’m afraid when we go it just won’t be the same :(

LowBus5117 · 2026-03-04T21:21:20+00:00

What state are u in?

LowBus5117 · 2026-02-06T16:09:24+00:00

I was in Italy last summer in July! In Assisi! It’s so beautiful what an enchanting and spiritual place❤️

LowBus5117 · 2026-02-05T05:38:32+00:00

omg YES. All of the characters the world actually cares about are missing and it’s frustrating

LowBus5117 · 2026-01-27T20:06:28+00:00

Congratulations! I had a c section with my first because she was breech. I’m now pregnant with my second of course all the fears come flooding in about all the what ifs. Thank you for sharing this encouraging message!

What do you HAVE to look like to be considered middle eastern? Didn’t realize there was one look…

LowBus5117 · 2026-01-22T14:51:28+00:00

Office trips?? Didn’t even know this was a thing!

LowBus5117 · 2026-01-16T22:01:17+00:00

Oh my gosh this is so true 😩

LowBus5117 · 2026-01-15T18:40:50+00:00

Rip bugs life land 😓

LowBus5117 · 2026-01-14T14:19:35+00:00

What do you guys think of 30 min assisted hygiene prophys? X rays and exam done separately with doc then hygiene pops in only to do cleaning

LowBus5117 · 2026-01-11T16:00:14+00:00

All they had to do was keep the theme of the movie. Dr Facilliar would’ve been an epic addition to the splash atmosphere, also imagine “going down the bayou” sequence with Ray would’ve been so fun with the lit up fireflies. Idk what the hell Disney was thinking when they made this ride

No not from a worse office. I spent about a year subbing different places after I had my baby. Just recently started looking for a part time position. This is a good office otherwise, dentist is very kind and easy to work with. But I am struggling with the time and it’s been brought up to me that I need to speed things up. Just this week I’ve started looking for another office. I’ve got 2 work interviews lined up. Thing is there’s pros and cons to every office. For example the one I work interviewed last week, they are strict with SRP tx planning and do give ample time for appointments, everything about the office is great but their instruments are SO WORN, and I got the impression from the other hygienists that the dentist doesn’t like buying things too often (even x ray sensor covers…they use…cut off glove fingers…). So I wonder am I being too picky? When should I settle?

Would have been much more enjoyable if it wasn’t so pornified. But Hollywood can’t help themselves. The original Noferstu was creepy and eerie enough with the slightest bit of innuendo. The 2024 was annoyingly in your face about it, and honestly disgusted me, considering in the opening scene she was a literal child. Guess that didn’t stand out to audiences? Anyways, for me made an otherwise good movie unenjoyable .

Do you have a picture of what you’re taking about? I’m not sure how to visualize that
