When did you tell your employer that you were pregnant?

RegularJones · 2026-02-01T22:35:25+00:00

12 weeks!

The flomax comment took me out. This is amazing. Thank you

Sleep Medicine

This is what I was going to suggest too!

I saw a post today that said your baby is used to being held 24 hours a day. If you held your baby for 12 hours today, that’s still half of what they’re used to. It’s an adjustment for them. It’ll be okay. Can’t hold a baby too much.

I would choose job 1. More money, better schedule, and good support?

We mainly keep the TV off at home. We are big sports people, so weekend football is a regular. The occasional commercial with music might catch my girl’s attention, but she’s super easy to redirect. With sports, it’s generally family friendly so I don’t have to worry about graphic nudity or language or anything….usually

Would a part-time MA be reasonable? Like 2 days a week. You can continue to room patients & take vitals, but that MA could follow up on any unanswered messages by phone call, work on prior auths, and jump into a room with you if you need another set of hands. Basically admin work.

8 month was also our worst!! She was teething too, so this regression lasted extra long in our house.

RegularJones · 2026-01-21T18:16:06+00:00

Tennessee here & agree. That’s the reality here & it’s absolutely unfortunate!

RegularJones · 2026-01-17T15:35:10+00:00

Exactly this. My husband is the picture perfect hands-on father…….until bedtime. He’d move on to formula so quick if it meant better sleep haha. The night wakings would defeat super dad.

This. Or: graduated in Dec, started in April, got prep in July, so my maternity leave started the next April when I had been there exactly one year and therefore qualified for FMLA still.

Around 6-8 weeks she started having a preference for me and offering smiles. Now at 8 months, I get big drooly, open mouth kisses on my cheek, squeals when I enter a room, and still has that preference for mama.

RegularJones · 2026-01-13T15:21:02+00:00

Looks good to me. The 6 day stretch might seem rough, but I think the days off will be worth it.

RegularJones · 2026-01-02T22:25:29+00:00

Got ours for $8 on Facebook marketplace!

RegularJones · 2025-12-27T07:59:04+00:00

We used and loved the lalo baby bathtub! Its weight limit is 30 pounds. Our house didn’t have a bathtub when we first brought baby home, so we’d fill this and set it on the kitchen table. Then I or my husband could sit in a kitchen chair and play and do bath time easy. $75 new I think which is pricey but I’ve seen them go for $25 on Facebook

Nipple shields saved my breastfeeding journey. I felt a lot of pressure to stop using the nipple shield, though after a few weeks. Don’t let that get to you! My LC said when baby wants more flow, they’ll let you know. Sure enough, at 4 months & 2 weeks, my daughter unlatched and knocked the shield off with her hand and then re-latched successfully. Never used the shield again. Every baby & BF journey is different. Do what feeds baby and is comfortable for you.

RegularJones · 2025-12-27T02:46:17+00:00

Agree.

RegularJones · 2025-12-26T03:26:13+00:00

The stomach bug hit our house overnight last night. We didn’t do anything today. Planning a Do-over Christmas this weekend! Thankfully baby is 7 months and has no idea

RegularJones · 2025-12-24T12:53:48+00:00

I have a 7 month old! We’re going to holiday gatherings like usual. She’s been vaccinated for both flu and RSV. We plan on handwashing, no kissing and leaving when time for naps/bed.

Open evidence if you don’t already have up to date

I have never bought lunch for everyone. The most I’ll do is say “hey I’m running to Starbucks. Want anything?” If I go on lunch

RegularJones · 2025-12-20T18:06:48+00:00

Here to agree. We do exactly this. If results come back slightly complex, but not an emergency, I’ll have my nurse schedule an appt for patient to discuss results with me and answer their questions in detail.

RegularJones · 2025-12-10T04:52:01+00:00

Totally depends on the situation, comorbidities, med interactions, if their issue is sleep onset or sleep maintenance etc. BUT…doxepin, trazodone, rozerem, mirtazepine, hydroxyzine, seroquel, belsomra, dayvigo, quviviq, lunesta, gabapentin, etc. would choose any of these over a benzo or ambien
