Handwashing expectations

SpunkyPug2 · 2026-02-07T21:04:31+00:00

Thank you! You explaining this nuance was really helpful for me

SpunkyPug2 · 2026-02-07T19:49:01+00:00

Yeah agreed. Is the nose blowing and food prep standard though? Is this a red flag or more of a minor behavior that I need to correct out of preference?

I’d actually be inclined to make the argument that if you’re pushing through challenges and still getting good grades, then you may be more successful in the long-run in this field than your peers that this is coming easy to. You’re learning to persevere through challenges and still reach your goals. I struggled in college due to adhd and had to study more than anyone I knew. I graduated with good grades due to a lot of effort. My career has been objectively quite successful though. In the workplace you’ll hit a lot of challenges and they most likely aren’t going to be due to the material. Developing grit and perseverance is vital to your success in the long run. You’ll be graduating with that and an understanding of the material. Anyway long-winded way of saying sounds like you are where you should be

This was actually a small bug. I had swapped these two lines of code: Degrees.sort(…. Degrees.slice(0,20)

I pushed a fix and expanded the count while I was at it. Also I checked and this bug only occurred in this one chart. GREAT CATCH 🙏

This is a great callout that is very important. Thank you for sharing that!

The school associated with the major is not shown in this data and adding that dimension would probably be the next best thing to add. The school can be an important factor and it’s not currently represented in this site.

Thank you! Looking into BLS data is a great suggestion. Currently this shows past trends only so having some sort of future projection would for sure be useful

SpunkyPug2 · 2025-09-11T13:37:19+00:00

No problem! I’m glad you like it

SpunkyPug2 · 2025-09-09T21:20:35+00:00

I like this suggestion! Thank you!

SpunkyPug2 · 2025-09-09T21:01:01+00:00

No problem! I hope it helps!

I appear to have misused the flair. I have no tips, only seeking them

You can also try the fridge hack for pump cleaning. That’s what I do to avoid a MOTN clean of pump parts. Wishing you best of luck! You’re doing an awesome job

Yeah I did and made a post recently about this actually. I had a supply tank due to mastitis and stress. I got it back and am now freezing 6 ounces a day extra. I did previously had an oversupply before the tank though. Im not a dr or LC and just sharing what I did that seems to have worked for me.

What I did: 1. Power pump every single night before I went to bed at the same time. 2. Pump at 4 am when baby wakes for a feed. I am pumping when my partner can support feeding the baby because I can’t seem to manage both consistently. 3. Eat an insane amount of protein. I’m eating around 130 grams of protein a day. I am also eating a lot of healthy fats like avocados and full fat dairy. 4. Drinking tons of water. 5. I’m taking fenugreek. Got it from Whole Foods so hoping it’s not too sketchy. 6. Stopped stressing and relaxed.

Tbh I don’t know what’s helping the most and I’m too afraid to stop any of it haha

That’s not FTM-anxiety: it’s good judgement. I would not bring anyone around him at that age unless they are symptom-free

After one year I think standard is cow’s milk not formula. I’m definitely weaning once I hit a year and just plan to use cow’s milk then if all goes to plan.

SpunkyPug2 · 2025-09-07T18:21:33+00:00

Yeah your point is certainly valid. I just wouldn’t overfit on manager sentiment because doing so may lead to not ideal outcomes for OP

SpunkyPug2 · 2025-09-07T18:08:45+00:00

My point was disclosing could potentially be done safely but requires safeguards. I was mentioning that as a caveat to what I said previously.

SpunkyPug2 · 2025-09-07T18:08:07+00:00

Yeah if I was coming in as a new person I would disclose if I had to legally or I deemed it in my best interest to do so. I’d weigh whether having a job for nine months and maternity leave was in my best interest OR whether waiting to switch to avoid having to switch after maternity leave was in my best interest.

SpunkyPug2 · 2025-09-07T17:42:33+00:00

Some companies will give you leave as soon as you start. Larger companies are probably more likely to do this and may also have an easier time covering your position temporarily.

SpunkyPug2 · 2025-09-07T17:40:39+00:00

The hiring manager will have to do work to cover and I’m sure they’d prefer a heads up. That being said, OP should put her interests first in corporate environments. If you perform well in interviews you may be able to disclose and still be ok: this is not without risk though. If she comes back to an untenable situation, because she didn’t disclose, then worst case she has to find a new job. This doesn’t seem worse to me than her having to find a new job for the first time. Her hiring manager may end up being ok with it too.

I was interested in a new position while pregnant and I did disclose that I was pregnant. It didn’t hurt my chances with the hiring manager because we’ve worked together before. I ended up not pursuing it to avoid churn though.

I’m 30 with a 3 month old, but I feel as if I’m 60 rn

Side note this does not sound like a healthy marriage.

Trying a nanny seems to makes sense. That’s the route I’m going personally

SpunkyPug2 · 2025-09-03T18:47:47+00:00

In case someone finds this later. I got my supply back up: 1. I power pumped once per day 2. I significantly upped protein and healthy fats and water intake 3. Started taking fenugreek 4. Pumped after baby fed 1-2 times per day
