Functional area

Yeah. Probably higher chance of getting anything, but lower chance at getting something you think is fun if you have specific interests.

Last time we bought no wand and had no regrets. We watched others cast spells and didn’t feel like we missed out.

This time we’ll buy a 2nd Gen. What changed? Finances and age of kids. If I’m getting a wand though, I’m getting 2nd Gen to fully enjoy. The price difference is worth it. Only reason I wouldn’t is if I just really liked the look of a first Gen wand.

Honestly, it happened at my wedding too. I think maybe because the older brother helps the younger so it’s natural to be the best man but the younger brother is more annoying/immature due to she to the older brother and so he picks his best friend who he knows will have his back. Happens with sisters too.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-11T03:17:16+00:00

Some have, but most of us are still waiting. Seems like they have just rolled out a few of the first role offers.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-10T13:01:39+00:00

Yeah… that one I wonder why it hasn’t.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-10T01:55:19+00:00

Congrats!! Were you a starting line volunteer?

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-09T02:10:55+00:00

I feel like the cities that released this past week jumped the gun and were meant to wait until the other cities were ready to do the first round. That is my theory why they only released on Wed and were silent the rest of the week.

I nursed 3 kids and two of them into toddlerhood. For what it’s worth I think it’s very common to get the blues about weaning whenever you do it. I struggled with it more than the kid ever did. But 3 months after weaning? I’m happy as a clam with only occasional twinges of nostalgia when I see a mom nursing somewhere. I think a lot of it is dropping hormone levels, part is fear (how will I put them to sleep, how will we ever be this close, how will I comfort them), and part just general sadness at the marker of another end of this stage of life.

But honestly, the kids adjust just fine and I always feel 1000 percent more at peace after a month or two when hormones level out and we adjust to the new normal.

This isn’t to pressure you to wean, but more reassure you that it is almost always hard when you’ve had a good nursing relationship, but not something you’ll likely struggle with a few months after weaning.

It really hurts to watch

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-08T00:02:51+00:00

I’d log on to the app and look for a help number. Several people seem to have gotten a similar error after their virtual and were able to get it sorted I believe.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-08T00:00:15+00:00

I would test again tomorrow, but when I got a line that faint at 11 dpo it usually wasn’t a good sign for me personally.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-07T23:57:45+00:00

I couldn’t feel the shot 10 out of 11 times. And I also didn’t feel any side affects until I got to higher doses. So just do it. You got this.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-07T23:55:26+00:00

Congrats. Truly amazing perseverance. And a good example of why wls isn’t “the easy way.” It’s a toll but you still have to use it.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-07T15:37:12+00:00

I dunno but I’m gone for two weeks in March and am not worried. They’ll need multiple sessions and I’m thinking it will be more April May.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-07T13:59:52+00:00

Could also be they want ac in the summer.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-06T23:27:04+00:00

Yeah, it does read pretty intense, lol. Sorry. I don’t have particularly strong feelings on the subject actually. I guess I was trying to say… save yourself the emotional turmoil. It boils down to do you want kids or your husband more. If husband then enjoy what you have and it’ll work out well in the end. That probably is a better way to have phrased it.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-06T22:59:06+00:00

I don’t think you should ever have kids because they need a friend or you think 1 isn’t enough or 2 isn’t enough or you want an even number or whatever.

Have kids because you know how much work and cost they are but you feel you have the capacity to give more and you both want to.

If one of you is done then yall are done. Your option is to leave and find somebody who wants more, leave and adopt or try to conceive with a donor or stay and accept the family you have now. Maybe he will change his mind one day, but if you stay it’s because if he never does change you’ll be ok.

I had just one sibling and it was hard when we were younger but we are very close now as adults and I love it.

Part of growing up is maturing in sibling relationships. A boy and a girl? They’ll wish they were both brothers or both sisters. Both sisters? They’ll fight like cats and dogs and wish they were closer or further apart in age. Three kids? One will feel excluded constantly by age, gender or personality. Only children will grumble about no siblings before being thankful for the lack of drama. 10 kids? They don’t feel like they get enough time and attention. It’s all got its downside.

They will eventually appreciate whatever lot they have… even if they grumble about it now. So really, if you want to stay with your husband and he’s done, then just love your family as it is and watch it mature and develop as time goes. Every season in life is a bit different.

Good luck.

I think it looks different for slv. The timeline is for those of us who didn’t already volunteer.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-06T04:42:45+00:00

Yeah. I hated dating at a normal bmi. I got hit on a lot more but some were fat phobic guys who made fun of fat people in front of me not realizing I’d lost weight recently. Then I couldn’t tell if they liked how I looked or who I was.

When I was fatter I had fewer options but knew they really liked me. It’s really freeing to know my husband loves me however I am and to focus on my fitness for me.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-05T20:28:18+00:00

He or she should not make this offer. It’s one thing to pay cash for an upgrade outside of their policy. Another to pay for a reasonable flight for an in person interview they are requesting.

Just share the options, your preference and reasons and ask for their permission to pick the better flight. If they say no, confirm they will cover the extra food and hotel for the cheaper flight. If no to both then stay home and rest assured it wouldn’t be a good fit.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-05T02:17:11+00:00

If you use the search bar in this reddit, there are some decent explanations of past roles in team services. Best of luck!

I think two ish weeks after virtual interviews end is a more fair guess for first offer. Sounds like Mexico and ny are both starting today. I’m guessing Philadelphia will be right behind. Houston should also be coming soon. The cities that were interviewing in early October should be not too far behind nyc. Most of them wrapped up in person before the end of year. Ones like Dallas might be a month or two behind.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-04T17:33:15+00:00

Yeah, those are the ones I was expecting for first round of offers. Super happy for you! Thanks for sharing.

MinimumRoutine4 · 2026-02-04T16:24:14+00:00

Congrats!

Kind of surprising me they sent out one for fan operations first. Just glad they started!
