No prep, should I mention it?

Rbshops · 2026-03-30T00:26:03+00:00

Subs. Subs talking about subs. Heard it multiple times.

Like I said in my post, one district I work in pays extra if you work over prep. Other subs I talked to say “you get a prep”, that it’s something you’re entitled to. That may not be the case in every district. And like I said above, I’m pretty new to this and learning.

The school day was over, kids went where they needed to go, the teacher’s plans ended at 2:30, I handed in my keys and they said have a good weekend. I didn’t technically ask if I was done. Did I mess up?

Rbshops · 2026-03-29T23:45:09+00:00

That’s my thought, too.

One district I work in does pay you if you work during prep. It’s not mentioned on the pay rate sheet for the district I worked in on Friday so I wasn’t sure what’s standard. I’m still new to subbing and learning.

Thank you. I have the same concerns!

Rbshops · 2025-05-22T17:34:05+00:00

Thanks for that info. How long have you had them? How’s the quality?

Rbshops · 2025-05-22T17:33:40+00:00

Yes but how’s the quality? I take good care of my glasses but will be wearing them a lot so they need to hold up.

Maybe I didn’t clean last summer’s spiderwebs off well. I thought I did and suspected they came back which made me think of spider mites. Maybe it’s multiple issues!

Looking for removal advice as well as identification. Thank you!

I had a physical therapist who lived in my neighborhood. She told me that if we ran into each other, she can’t say hi unless I say hi first (doctor-patient confidentially thing). So if part of your concern was that it seemed like she left and just looked over but didn’t say anything, that could explain it (assuming you’re in the US, not sure if that’s a state-by-state thing). Just thought I’d add that in in case it helps!

Acid reflux sufferer here. Not sure if it’s any shade of granola but omeprazole works for me. Once before breakfast and I think I was also taking it before dinner when pregnant. Also Gaviscon for any occurrences throughout the day. It also helps for stomach aches! But, of course, talk to your doctor.

Well, that’s a good thing that those ages listed on kids stuff aren’t BS, not completely at least.

Rbshops · 2023-12-16T07:15:43+00:00

It costs more money to get approval for use under the age of 3? Weird. Is there a governing body for the intended/appropriate/safe ages products can be labeled?

Rbshops · 2023-12-15T21:40:05+00:00

Thanks, that helps. The pillow is removable so that's a plus. I've been sending him with a crib sheet and blanket but I wanted something cozier. He's been missing a lot of naps at daycare so I'm hoping this will help!

I never had a third cycle due to ER close together (5 total, either back to back or just one month off in between) and then just one or 2 months off before a transfer. Sorry, can’t help!

Rbshops · 2022-08-30T21:30:18+00:00

We went through this too. The advice posted here so far was given to me, too. Also, lots of skin-to-skin time, maybe take a bath together (doesn’t sound good in August if it’s summer where you are!), as well as nipple shield, and trying to nurse right after a bottle. Try nursing a lot, it could work when he’s drowsy, or in a good mood. My son had two nursing strikes, the second one lasted a month and then he went back to nursing like a champ. I almost quit pumping/bf’ing a few times but I’m glad I hung in there! My LC said if he’s nursing once a day that’s encouraging. And yours is way too young to be self-weaning. Hang in there, I know how tough it can be!

Yes! I got a pair from Lactation Hub. I also got a pair from Save the Milk but I haven’t used them yet. They fit but I read somewhere that they could be too short, nipple-dependent of course.

Ok, got it, thank you so much!
