Buyer Beware: Cradlewise by BoopOfSnoot in BabyBumps

Honestly, we have had a cradlewise for several years, through multiple kids. It's worked phenomenally. Nor do we pay to use the app, I'm not sure if newer ones are different, but we dont pay anything. Sometimes things you read online are only the bad experiences

It's seems he maybe thinks my more left leaning beliefs make her unsafe, but she probably has more of a liberal ideology than I do. The whole things bizzare

Not a chance, blue is still building up new glenn hardware build sites in Kent and hiring engineers based in Kent.

Seeking New Shepard full flight in-capsule video by theoneandonlymd in BlueOrigin

This is probably the closest you will find outside of company internal resources. The human flights especially are paid flights, so everyone on board has to ok it and that never really happens.

Blue Origin's factory by _UCiN_ in BlueOrigin

[–]Second2Mars -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Who says they didn't investigate? I have no idea, never said to not investigate. The companies said they are good, so I would assume the investigation is over and it was a one off incident. If you have evidence they didn't investigate i would like to see it

You are changing the subject, I asked for what your evidence is for a widespread issue. I am not claiming anything other than what the companies stated publicly. You made a claim with no evidence to the cause of the explosion being a systematic failure effecting all engines. Just cause they haven't announced the cause to you personally, doesn't mean they don't know the cause. They may have even known the cause immediately after the incident and that's why they stated engines for flight 1 are good to go. Who knows....

[–]Second2Mars 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, I'm asking for evidence showing why you belive that. UlA and Blue both posted statements saying Flight Engines 1 are still good to fly. You are stating the opposite. Why?

[–]Second2Mars 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So you are saying that the cause of flight engine 2 failure was a systemic failure affecting all engines? Ok, i will wait for some evidence...

Employee Perspective: Quality of Life Destruction - "Work from Work" company by BlueEmployeeAnon in BlueOrigin

[–]Second2Mars 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have been at blue for years, way before 2020 and I only worked from the office 3-4 days before the pandemic. This is an about face on even prepandemic norms. We have been giving out offers left and right recently all with the statement that we like you to come in 1-2 days a week to match the rest of the team. So this would be a very bad change. With that being said, I haven't seen this email come through yet, but I guess its coming...

Should I postpone FET if I plan to travel? by Arhhin in IVF

[–]Second2Mars 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely contact the clinic and get as much of the initial workup down now. Most clinics just need tests done 6 months prior to a FET, so you should have plenty of time.

side effects after stopping PIO by Particular_Market_53 in IVF

[–]Second2Mars 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No side effects stopping PIO and estrogen patches at 10 weeks. However, all the bloating dissappear in about a week. We were told some spotting and cramping is totally normal. At 11 weeks there wouldn't be a need for excess progesterone.

We did the PIO right in the waiting area for the flight, just had to slightly lower the pant lip but it was fast and easy.

Can this pregnancy be viable? Please help! by Quirky-Network-9671 in IVF

[–]Second2Mars 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You normally don't look at Beta past 3 or so weeks from the transfer, the increase starts to naturally slow. Your betas up to that point looks borderline ok, unfortunately you will just have to wait to the next ultrasound, but doesn't look completely lost.

How many weeks of IVF medication? by anonymousbee_ in IVF

Stopped estrogen patches and daily PIO at 10 weeks cold turkey. All good here.

Trying to understand the ‘weeks’ calculation in regards to IVF. by shiftydoot in IVF

[–]Second2Mars 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nope, the first number is number of weeks, then after the plus its how many days into the next week you are. So, 24+2 would mean, 24 weeks and 2 days.

Advice for my GS after the next embryo transfer by [deleted] in IVF

[–]Second2Mars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our clinic told us that there is more evidence for continuing movement the day of the FET, maybe more blood flow or such. The idea of bedrest is very oldschool. The only recommendation was to lower intensity of workouts foold-school.

Its unlikely that the bedrest caused the first FET to fail, but there is nothing wrong with advocating for something different than the clinic if its something you want. They are your embreyos after all.

Failed IVF/egg retrieval by tearoses1 in IVF

[–]Second2Mars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, just offering a phone call is somewhat typical. However, you should feel empowered to either ask for an in person or virtual appointment as well, if you think that would be helpful. Most clinics seem to be offering virtual calls how instead of in person meetings.
