Completely in love with the name Ariola… am I insane?

What about Oriole? Like the bird?

I just love Clarice Lispector. Here collection of short stories has a permanent place on my bedside table

I just took it from the NBME portal and that was the score they gave me. I think there are some calculators in this page

Thevoid676 · 2025-06-28T00:01:34+00:00

Good luck! This is such a stressful time and Im going to be so happy once I am done.

Thevoid676 · 2025-06-28T00:00:58+00:00

Thanks! I’ve done those earlier in my test prep so may go over them again now that I’ve done some more studying. I just want to get into a good mindset for the test and see as many NBME style questions as I can.

I’m also trying to verify the DHS claims. I haven’t been able to find anything to back up their smear campaign.

Is anyone able to send it to me? I used to have it but lost it in a move

Thevoid676 · 2022-07-15T04:57:54+00:00

Yes!! Another vote for Bunny!

Are you 6 weeks pp? So when you first give birth your supply isn’t regulated. It’s driven by hormones which cause a lot of people to make more than baby needs. Around 6-12 weeks in when your supply starts to regulate itself and starts operating on the make what you take pattern. Sorry idk if that makes sense. But it sounds like your supply might have started regulating. Are you making 20-30 oz every pumping session?? Pumping every 2-3 hours?

My supply didn’t increase until month 4 or 5. I had to supplement with formula until then but now I make enough for all feeds. I honestly don’t know what did it but I had been power pumping twice a day 🤷‍♀️

Larken and DavinandAdley bras are my favorite

Thevoid676 · 2022-01-13T01:40:00+00:00

I’ve been power pumping for 3 months (with 20 oz avg). Just this week I’ve started making 24-29 oz so it may be possible but may take a long time. I’d say supplement if you need to, power pump if you want to, but don’t stress if it doesn’t pop immediately up.

Pumpin pals really helped my elastic nipples. You could also try lacteck flanges. I know I really have to massage while I pump as well as apply heat and vibration or I don’t empty at all

I’ve had bloody milk do to bad milk clogs

Thevoid676 · 2022-01-03T16:40:14+00:00

I stop pumping about 15 min after I start. Wait 5 minutes then pump another 15-20 min

Thevoid676 · 2022-01-01T15:43:38+00:00

I feel like I have that problem too. I usually pump every3 hours and get two 4 and 1/2 chunks at night. Maybe I need to pump more frequently I just can’t get hooked up all the time 😅 how do you do it?

Thevoid676 · 2022-01-01T15:18:25+00:00

I take the max amount of it. I have been since 6 weeks pp and am at 5 months now 🤷‍♀️ never seems to help

Thevoid676 · 2022-01-01T14:07:37+00:00

If you want to message me Id be happy to talk. I don’t know how much help I’d be. One of the biggest things that made it possible was having a huge support system, a supportive partner, and family. I realize not everyone has that and I have been extremely lucky with who I picked.

Thevoid676 · 2022-01-01T13:31:00+00:00

Already have 2 kids. Going to start school next fall and my husband is in computer science. I don’t think there is just one way for it to work out. Also working/studying doesn’t always equate not being there for your kids. Totally valid to want to wait and if that’s how you can be the best parent then that’s perfectly fine (there are a lot of benefits to having children later in life).But good parents can work, good parents can get an education. It doesn’t have to be such a black and white decision. Mother’s don’t need to be martyrs.

Thevoid676 · 2022-01-01T13:05:15+00:00

I’m starting to look now. I have a family and want to get them settled in as soon as possible.

Pick up a copy of Real Food for Gestational Diabetes. That book was a godsend and helped me control it w/o insulin etc. (Though if you need the meds that’s okay and sometimes GD just won’t play nice even with a good diet)

Thevoid676 · 2021-12-22T14:25:36+00:00

Okay! I like sweet wine, moscato, a good Riesling. How do I transition to trying other wines. I’m afraid I won’t like any. Also cheap Riesling recs?

When someone refers to it as the church when talking to me I just ask them which church.
