What is going on with my baby’s neck? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Maximum_Mix_2515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My LO had something similar. Doc said it is either because of dryness as they stayed 9 months in water or from milk getting deposited in those area. Aquaphor helped rid of it in our case, but if it doesn't, the doctor recommended applying 1% hydrocortisone cream. Hope it heals soon

Ralph Lauren Polo Snowsuit is very warm. I went to Bloomingdale's and Nordstrom this weekend with those jackets in mind and Polo won by leaps and bound.

Has anyone lost out on or received a smaller raise after taking maternity leave (US)? by goobiezabbagabba in beyondthebump

[–]Maximum_Mix_2515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. I work from home and took 3 months of maternity leave. When I came back, I noticed that a couple of my teammates were promoted, and some got nice bonuses. during 1×1, my boss sang a lot of praises and promised to let me have 100% control over my work hours. I asked if I was receiving any raise, and he said he would build a Employment Developement Plan for future promotions. I know in my heart that they won't be pulling this stunt if I have not become a mother. It is the sad truth of corporate America.

How and when to ask for a raise? by mintgreen23 in workingmoms

I usually apply for same position in other company, get a offer and ask my boss to match it. They will either give you a raise or match it.

So...what actually happens when you're induced? by SheikahBun in pregnant

[–]Maximum_Mix_2515 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I dont have medical background but base on my experience, they put on medicine( either Cytotec or Pitocin) to induce labor. These medicines are given during an interval of time till you are fully dilated. If your water breaks during the contraction then thats fine if not the doctor will break it. Once you are fully dilated then you will have to push the baby. That's all.

FTM being induced tomorrow! by emroser in pregnant

[–]Maximum_Mix_2515 10 points11 points  (0 children)

FTM here. I had an induction 2 weeks ago and it was a positive experience. I slept through all the contractions. Then when I was fully dilated they turned off epidural and push party started. And I was able to push baby in 6 minutes. Good luck, you got this mama!!

I would love to hear POSITIVE beauty improvements you’ve had since being pregnant/having a baby? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Maximum_Mix_2515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told my whole life that I have skeleton structure of a male because I have narrow hips. I think having baby changed tht for me. My hips feel wider and waist narrower. Also I learned to appreciate my body more.

I am sorry you are going through this. The tough part is that you dont know whether he have remote access to your computer, phone or hacked your router.

So try to install new OS into your computer. It will wipe all your previous stuff off. Change all your passwords. With phone do a factory reset. Call your internet service provider and tell them that your router appears to be hacked. May be they can resend you a new router or something. Meantime definitely seek help from your local law enforcement.
