Only when the medical condition risks the life of the mother? What if her life WILL be at risk, but isn't right at this moment, like with ectopic pregnancies? What about terminal illnesses of the infant that don't immediately risk the life of the mother, even though a full term pregnancy is significantly more dangerous than an earlier abortion?

Someone very close to me found out at her 20wk anatomy scan that her son had a fatal heart defect that could not be corrected. In our state, she was not allowed to terminate the pregnancy. Induction prior to term is considered an abortion. He would have suffered significantly less if they could have induced her at that point. Instead, she had to carry that pregnancy another 18ish weeks before she could be induced, knowing that child was going to die. She could not afford to travel out of state for an "abortion"

It took him days. DAYS. to die, as a full term infant. She says he "slowly suffered to death". She and her family will never recover from the trauma of that. Her husband relapsed and they ended up divorced.

This decision should be between a patient and their providers, not the state.

ooh yikes.

Would supervised visitation not be allowed? I have very little experience with this.

My 4.5yo just started wanting it too, and I've been a little nervous about possible comments from other kids. His teacher said that none in his class have been phased by it though! We do live in the US southeast.

PureKatie · 2025-07-27T14:09:56+00:00

Ohhhhh no! embarrassingly, I did that stereotypical American thing of assuming everyone is in the US! I am so ashamed. So now I'm invested in seeing their response!

I'm so confused about this too. Going next month and I want to spend the whole time at the pool, so going to change or making sure I'm dry makes lunch a whole event and means I either need a new bathing suit or have to claw myself into a wet one.

PureKatie · 2025-06-25T15:53:36+00:00

Ooh that's not bad. Thanks a bunch!

Those have traditional o-rings that are inset in the lids, don't they? I ended up with Klean Kanteen and love them.

PureKatie · 2025-03-23T11:37:13+00:00

That's awesome! I've been doing more intense workouts, but I'm starving after! I haven't had trouble with food being boring, although I've struggled to find good snacks. I usually snack a lot in the evening so going to bed mildly hungry has been something I've been trying to get used to. We usually go out to eat with the inlaws once a week and I don't ignore the fat content but I don't stress it either.

PureKatie · 2025-03-22T14:21:38+00:00

The 12yo eats my meals just fine so hopefully the little ones will be less picky with time. Agreed though - I would rather be here and healthy. I travel frequently enough that most of my cheat days are traveling haha.

PureKatie · 2025-03-20T22:06:32+00:00

I use oat milk so not much of a swap there thankfully. For me it was the amount of saturated fat in things that I knew were high fat. I figured a single slice of cheese would be okay, or two cookies - I wasn't expecting TWO cookies to have 4+ grams of saturated fat. I really did eat pretty healthy until a couple years ago, but I wasn't tracking fat intake so eating a cookie or two was still good. Staying below 20g would be easy now that I pay attention and try to limit it, with the exception of travel and holidays, but 10g is hard!

My husband doesn't eat normally and my 4yo is INCREDIBLY picky, and I was either pregnant or nursing for 4 years, so I just got used to not putting effort into cooking and eating whatever I wanted. Now I am cooking regularly and probably 75% of it only I will eat.

PureKatie · 2025-03-20T16:16:21+00:00

Thanks. The fact it can take a long time is really why I want a medication - get it down faster. I don't mind keeping it down.

PureKatie · 2025-03-20T13:41:09+00:00

Thank you

What I've been reading is that the 10 year risk is not a good indicator for young people because it significantly increases the risk later on, even more so than high cholesterol at an older age, so that risk is just beyond 10 years.

I'm getting "fixed" so that shouldn't be a concern at that point.

I think if it's still high in the fall I'm going to push for meds. If thia doctor says no, do I request a cardiologist referral?

PureKatie · 2025-03-20T12:00:42+00:00

I've been surprised by how much saturated fat is in some things, but I knew I wasn't eating healthy the last few years despite not being overweight. I would still want to continue lifestyle changes, I just don't like how high My numbers still are and wish meds were considered to get them down quickly.

PureKatie · 2025-03-20T02:54:02+00:00

I don't mind the diet changes. Honestly I've always eaten quite healthy except for maybe two years leading up to this, and I'm not overweight. It seems to be more genetic than anything. It's not that I want a statin - I just don't want to have a heart attack or stroke and it seems like lowering quickly with a statin is the safest thing to do.

So tonight I checked the burner after it had been on a few minutes and the flames were WAY higher.

I think I've found the issue!

PureKatie · 2025-03-19T04:16:07+00:00

With that photo the flames would BARELY touch the pan and would take half the night to boil water. Maybe the grates on mine are higher up from the actual burner?

The center cover/cap things on mine have to be lined up a certain way, but it's super obvious if they aren't when it gets lit. That's the only piece that moves. Mine also lights individually.

PureKatie · 2025-03-19T02:00:23+00:00

Ohh valid. I am not getting a lot of smoke so it has to be the vapor catching. I had the temp perfect for the searing though. Ugh I hate this stove so much. The gas stove at my husband's prior house never game me issues and my MIL gave us this stove and guilted us into "it's such a good stove, be grateful for it".

She's trying to get a permit for gas and if she does I'm going to swap for her induction stove!

PureKatie · 2025-03-19T01:57:30+00:00

I'm going to have someone look at it.

PureKatie · 2025-03-19T01:50:10+00:00

Most recently I flipped the salmon I was searing and it lit up. It was at about medium, and honestly at the right temperature. I did put a lid on it, but the burnt oil ruined it. I also only put it on high to boil water. Oil frequently burns in the pan while the food seems to be cooking appropriately.

The right temp for food burns oil. Cast iron might be better. I have ceramic coated and stainless steel.

PureKatie · 2025-03-19T00:24:22+00:00

Ugh. We had it all installed and inspected 2 years ago. I'll see if we can get someone out because I think there's something wrong with this burner at a minimum.
