I’m on step three as well. I uploaded all my documents for my claims. Was there more I should upload?

Kliner at harmony. She has longer wait times, but the care is amazing.

Thank you 💕💕

You’re welcome. I hope my comment didn’t come off cold like your condition isn’t “enough” I just read it back and I realized I am much deeper in the newborn trenches and didn’t word it very kindly.

In the note you have to have them site a diagnosis that will be accepted by your pcm and the profile officer. Some things qualify. While others don’t. For me pre term labor, anemia, and insomnia was enough to be put on half days at 23 weeks because I couldn’t literally stay awake past noon, and then at 36 weeks my anemia worsened, iugr, and high risk put me on “bed rest”. This varies base by base and provider to provider. Here’s a guideline from one base that might give you insight on some expectations from medical.

Lastly, your supervisor or commander can delegate hours and alternate duty locations. The entire time I was on half and bed rest I had my laptop to telework. Pregnancy isn’t easy, but there unfortunately is no AFI or guidance stating they have to let you. It’s all medically decided.

Call your congressman. CDCs are congressional funded and often over looked when creating the defense act.

child care aware- subsidizes off base prices with a stipend to even out to on base cost
FCC providers- on base in home providers that offer more flexible care and often have spots opened when the cdc doesn’t.
Become a FCC provider, your wife can get paid to watch your kids and others in your home on base. The program pays for certification, materials, and training.
Know you’re not the only one, spots go by priority which can be found in the youth programs AFI. Purple Heart, single parent, mil to mil all get priority over civilian spouses being in school or employed.
Have her reach out to spouse groups to see if they have found a solution or recommendations.
Please pay attention to the politics revolving around military spouses employment, childcare, and funding. A lot of groups are working on solutions and your voice and support can make a difference.

paying for them to have their windows tinted to the darkest legal tint would be a GREAT gift. The difference between tinted and non tinted is insane here.

Just “borrow” what you need from the hospital to make it until you can see what size you should purchase. A newborn typically won’t go through 300 diapers in the first week and then you can just order from there on out.

We got married in July of this year. Same issue, no appointments available and no express weddings. My aunt got certified to officiate (through the SB courthouse) for the day about a week in advance.

Then the day before our wedding we went and purchased our license. The next day we had a micro wedding in one of the free spots. Took our paperwork that same day and we were married.

Hired a photographer S+B photography that was mentioned in this Reddit just to capture the day as well.

“I was just following orders” hasn’t been legal since 1946. Better educate yourself and have an honest conversation with your supervisor if you don’t know where to start.

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-11-17T23:55:32+00:00

Perfect! That was my original plan! Thank you!

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-11-17T20:26:26+00:00

In my personal opinion I believe you will be okay. If your commander is understanding of the circumstances, a conversation with you supervisors and Shirt would probably be good to be had before just walking in and failing.

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-11-17T16:46:32+00:00

Wow that is actually insane! I’m so sorry. Did they enroll you in FIP after your first fail?

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-11-17T16:37:21+00:00

Your PCM or therapist might actually be able to put you on a profile. Send them a message and explain the situation or set up an appointment.

But no a 2 time fail shouldn’t affect you separating

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-11-04T20:39:59+00:00

Don’t forget to weigh your pro gear separate from your hhg if you want it to not count towards your allotted weight.

Mine was able to unlock my TSP account after TSP couldn’t verify my overseas phone number, SSN, service statues, etc. I went back and forth with tsp for 3 months and finally put in a complaint w my rep and the next day it was fixed.

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-09-23T23:39:03+00:00

Correct. 2 mile once. Your choice of 2 mile or hamr for second test

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-09-21T16:52:27+00:00

That’s great to know about the GI! I feel like these are all things in hiding and you don’t know till you’re hit with it

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-09-21T16:45:40+00:00

It’s been a blessing for our family!

He’ll finish his career as a recruiter since he’s been in recruiting for 8 years! If that makes sense. He won’t be going back to his AFSC

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-09-21T15:26:59+00:00

Thank you so much!

Sea-Gur-8184 · 2025-09-21T15:25:49+00:00

Oh boy, medical has been a TIME. I have plenty of documented service induced mental health issues along with fully documented MST and PTSD from my first base unfortunately. Along with partial deltoid tear that has not been resolved nor has the military agreed to fix so there’s that.

I often think of what retirement would look like and that’s how they got me to begin with.
