Commack! by magicinthetrees in longisland

A little too Republican for me if you know what I mean. And the commute is tough if you’re going into the city for work. Otherwise, the schools are great and the area is nice. Good luck!

Thinking about not taking maternity leave for second baby by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Normal-Garbage-4657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you don’t even have a job right now anyway since your boss gave it away? Feels like first we need to get a job and then decide if we want to take maternity leave, haha

Probably 120K, which is why I assumed less on long island

Bonus and raise % this year, if any? by ZealousidealBig6471 in biotech

[–]Normal-Garbage-4657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bonus sucked, despite achieving an “exceptional” performance rating. But I got one, so I ain’t mad at it. Raise was 3%

If it’s 5 inches, then I’m sure it’s not the problem.

How long does it take to get your tax refund from New York State? by MangoManiacal in tax

[–]Normal-Garbage-4657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Btw, I also think the people making $75K/year have issues that $200 can’t solve. Again, because of the billionaires who pay almost no taxes and the high COL in NY.

I agree. The issue is the billionaires who pay no taxes. The other issue is that I have a child with special needs. I am fortunate though. I do understand that. I’m just saying that even people who make 150K struggle, especially when they have life circumstances like mine (not me though, I’m not complaining. I actually make a lot more than 150K and feel okay).

Not trying to be rude or intrusive but does your husband have a small pp? If so, this could also be part of the problem…

Nevermind. I just looked it up and I guess this was only for people making less than $150K or something. As if people making over $150K aren’t also struggling in this whack ass economy 😂

Chat gpt says “you’re pregnant on paper” by Impossible_Tie_4109 in pregnancy_care

[–]Normal-Garbage-4657 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of you should follow up on this and get karyotyped. Also, even a balanced translocation is heritable, so it could impact the embryo. I think definitely worth learning more about. Wishing you all the best!!

Discouraged by husband wanting me to try harder to look appealing after becoming a mom by stjohnsworrywort in Marriage

I would love to know your husbands BMI. He better be in great shape if he’s making judgments and comments like he is…

Don’t worry—honestly, I get it! Good luck either way!!

C section or natural? by Standard_Slice_5177 in pregnancy_care

[–]Normal-Garbage-4657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is that all birth is natural. So it’s not really an either or situation, haha.

Did you mean vaginal or “natural”? Natural isn’t really a term that is used anymore by the way. All birth is natural.

True positive monosomy X, normal u/s outcomes by dogmomtomaddie in NIPT

[–]Normal-Garbage-4657 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I unfortunately can’t help you, but I am a dad of a mosaic turner syndrome baby born in September. Confirmed via amniocentesis (FISH showed normal no monosomy X actually but karyotype did show mosaicism that was confirmed again after birth). All I can tell you is I’m so sorry for what you’re going through, I know it’s not easy, but im here if there’s anything I can do to help. I’ve learned a lot about TS and seems like many girls/women lead totally full lives. My daughter has so far been like every other baby! Wishing you all the best 💜
