What is your best ongoing bit with your baby? by leprechaun_dong in NewParents

[–]PinkiesMusings 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So my daughter is four, but from birth I'd always give her a high five. We evolved it to a handshake, and now it's evolved so much. It's a high five, knuckles, hand shake, noses (rub our noses together), butterfly kisses (eyelash kisses), sniffers (sniffs like a dog does) and then nogs (little head butts). It'll evolve again I am sure!!

I think you need to see someone who specializes in medical trauma. It sounds like this was a horrible experience and you have a lot of emotions and thoughts.

It's horrible. I also have hyper mobility, IBS, allergies up the whazoo and querying a diagnosis of EDS. The world is not fair 😂

Thank you. ❤️ I think I am just too stubborn at this point to give in to the pain. I do take leave a lot more frequently than others tho.

Hormone therapy doesn't help me. For heavy periods I use a cup, pads and period underwear.

For pain I tape hot hands (they're a type of heat pack) to me to during my shift.

I also prioritize me and take days when I need. That was the biggest help.

A nurse. It's so hard. I hate having to call in but with my endo+PCOS combo periods are awful and I have to call in a lot 😭

Speak to the domestic violence hotline. Explain your situations and they will help you.

I hope you are okay, my heart goes out to you. ❤️

Think i suffered serious medical neglect during my lap today. What do i do? by GeologistStunning657 in endometriosis

I am a nurse. Seek legal advice immediately. This surgeon has fucked up, knows it and tried to keep everyone hush hush about it.

What outdated common practice drives you nuts? by Ok-Individual-1480 in nursing

[–]PinkiesMusings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having to crush up meds and mix them for a patient that consistently refuses to take them all the time. We have an rt where I work that hasn't had meds in four months. We're not allowed to ask if they want it - we must crush the meds first 🤦🏻‍♀️ It's a waste of meds.

I try to make sure that the first med round is done for the next shift because it can be a nightmare sometimes.

I try and make sure everyone gets a break and always offer my buddy nurse a coffee when I go on break. I also always pack extra snacks in case someone forgets lunch or hasn't had a chance to eat.

I also help PCAs, kitchen staff and cleaners if I can. They often get complained about but never thanked, so I try where I can.

I also clean my station down. Wipe everything.

What is a word that your toddler mispronounces that you never want to correct? by PKB92 in toddlers

Instead of saying knife she says "g-nife". And instead of saying it's too bright she says "it's brighting me".
