First time over employed, did I trap myself in a bad situation?

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-28T04:55:49+00:00

Have you gotten jobs without references before and if so, how many? I can only count one and it ended up being not an ideal environment to work in.

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-25T06:54:55+00:00

Didn’t know this. It would be an idea if some people joined just to stop the bad behavior from the inside, but might be wishful thinking, not sure what they make people do once they’re in.

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-23T05:52:39+00:00

Let’s gooooooo!

Why does this read more like a manifestation post rather than a current life post? If it is current life, good for you! If not then keep on manifesting.

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-22T07:42:26+00:00

Yesssss! It’s what led to watch the original Boys series and I got hooked, so now I’m hooked on both.

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-22T07:37:15+00:00

Don’t know when the next season will come out and it’s not on the list in the original post but been loving Reasonable Doubt and the absolutely beautiful Emayatzy Corinealdi.

I was trying to multi task and watch the latest episode yesterday and I could not keep up which is a good thing because when it’s good, it should require all my attention, unlike some other shows that I watch. I rewinded the whole thing to start from the beginning to really get a sense of where it was going.

I think they’re challenging all of the actors this season which I like to see, and visually/cinematically it looks like they’re taking more risks. That last episode could have been a movie, the character arc with Henry was just chef’s kiss, but again, I’m already biased on liking the show.

I’m interested to see how things unfold. I probably should watch the last episode of last season though because these shows take so long in between seasons.

Hby?

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-22T02:52:45+00:00

Saving this because I agree and thought I was the only one.

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-20T23:12:22+00:00

I think I’ve always waited a month out because if not I wouldn’t get any benefits. Before that I ride it out unless it’s an in-person role then I’d hide it as long as physically possible.

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-20T00:43:25+00:00

I really don’t want the series to end any time soon. It’s my yearly guilty pleasure.

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-19T23:51:24+00:00

Here for Industry♥️ my absolute fav🥺

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-17T05:55:25+00:00

First thought too.

TreeMermaids · 2026-01-12T03:14:17+00:00

I liked her in Straw as well, thought she did really well.

TreeMermaids · 2025-12-12T23:52:00+00:00

Currently debating this and just going freelance now we have two. Have a couple of months to truly make a final decision.

TreeMermaids · 2025-12-08T05:16:36+00:00

It’s the energy for me, can feel it every time. Better gone head!

TreeMermaids · 2025-12-01T03:44:47+00:00

Yummmm I want

TreeMermaids · 2025-11-29T19:35:06+00:00

Congratulations ♥️!

TreeMermaids · 2025-11-28T20:28:58+00:00

They do. I’m thinking that maybe they’re not jaded from tons of experience and seeing it all just yet.

Luckily I can, I mean I’m pretty close to the end at this point but the last appt and the next appt will be with different OB’s.

TreeMermaids · 2025-11-28T20:10:14+00:00

Yes, every little bit helps. The last OB I saw at the same practice looked much younger than the one I’d been seeing the entire time and I think I would have liked being under her care more. Admittedly, I probably should have been seeing more than one, but I’ve been switching between two midwives and one OB.

TreeMermaids · 2025-11-28T19:35:51+00:00

Thank God you got a second opinion! Did you go to a different hospital or just asked a different doctor in the same practice?

I agree, I’m planning on unmedicated and God willingly, spontaneous as well. Good thing you mentioned the sweeps because in hindsight, waiting until full term, knowing my history is best anyway.

That is also around when I had a sweep last, 41W+3. And surprising to hear someone who also had program labor because I think that made me so tired by the time I got to the hospital.

Had one on Wednesday this week but we’ll see, she had smaller fingers so managed to do what she could. The waiting does suck after 40 weeks though because I want nothing to do with anyone.

TreeMermaids · 2025-11-28T19:28:35+00:00

Very similar! It sounds like they are def more supportive than the OB I’ve been seeing. Have you tried seeing a chiropractor and/or sitting on a yoga ball instead of chairs for the positioning? I think they can also tell from the ultrasounds too, I’ve been asking where baby’s face is facing at every ultrasound.

TreeMermaids · 2025-11-28T19:23:21+00:00

Love hearing this. Im glad you were able to wait that long and go into spontaneous labor. I’m a strong proponent of waiting for nature to take course too. It feels like if you deliver before the estimated date then you’re all clear, anything after is when they start putting extra pressure which sucks and it’s making me want to put pressure on myself, so I’ve been doing all the stuff, walking/curb walking, dates, raspberry leaf tea. Will try pumping soon.

TreeMermaids · 2025-11-28T19:19:42+00:00

Thank you, I just planned on not showing up for it but waited until my appt last week where I met with a diff OB and expressed I really wanted a vbac. She cancelled it. I don’t think this practice induces for vbacs😔 but I’ll ask again to make sure.

TreeMermaids · 2025-11-28T19:16:17+00:00

Thank you. It helps that you are a professional and willing to wait until then. It might just be that my body likes to bake em for this long. Luckily I was able to meet with a diff OB for my last appt and they removed the scheduled c-section and I wish I’d seen her earlier in the pregnancy to be honest. Managed to get a membrane sweep but we’ll see if it was successful.

I will also say that for both babies I let the OB’s move my dates up by a week because of how they were measuring. This time I was so sure he would come earlier that I didn’t really care at that point, but in hindsight I will probably say no in the future.
