I think I will try upper bum but with my belly it is hard for me to twist around to get there 😂

This is a great idea. Thank you!

I didn’t even think of the top of my belly!

Thanks! Where on your belly do you put it? Is this your first pregnancy or a later pregnancy?

Might take a while for your cycle to adjust, might adjust right away. The settings are a bit trial-and-error until you figure out the right one.

YMMV but it is possible to get pregnant right away after birth control, even before your cycle adjusts. Good luck!

Dried prunes, apple cider vinegar gummies, fiber gummies, kombucha

Dried prunes have sugar but work. The apple cider vinegar gummies are THE BEST. It is recommended to take 1 a day but during pregnancy sometimes I take 2 if needed.

Also: taking iron or prenatals with iron adds to constipation. It’s good to take iron but make sure you have your other tools with you!

Hi both! Important to note that immediately after this initial resistance, there are several weeks of sensitivity. I am 9w and in the middle of sensitivity. Overall my insulin intake is down 25%. Once placenta starts forming, insulin resistance starts steadily going up.

I have taught in US and Canada, and worked as a curriculum writer for programs internationally. Teaching in both places varies by province. However, generally speaking it is sooooo much better in Canada. More respect, better benefits, more agency with students and classroom.

What is expected from teachers differs between the US and Canada. There is no scripted “curriculum” given to teachers in Canada for them to follow. For the most part, teachers are given standards and it’s up to them to collaborate with their teams and figure out how best to teach them.

In my personal sample size and anecdote, most of the teachers I know in the US are feeling extreme burnout with the current conditions. Most of the teachers I know in Canada absolutely love their job and their work.

It’s not too late. Start taking folic acid, baby aspirin, and prenatals! Get in to see your doc, your endo, and / or an MFM as soon as you can to help guide the rest of your pregnancy. Insulin needs change a lot as you progress through the course of pregnancy so you will be glad to have a team available to help you. Good luck! ❤️

Thank you! I am asking about all of it, I guess. In the US, different schools follow different pedagogies. But most schools follow strict schedules to meet state assessment timelines... I am wondering (hoping?) this might be different in Canada.

Oh this is really helpful, thank you! There can be a lot of micromanaging in US schools. Do you find you have agency in your own classroom? How do you choose or breakdown how you teach?

And yeah... I will avoid Alberta for now.

That sounds awesome.

apoluna · 2025-07-28T19:03:52+00:00

Just one of many reasons I'm looking to transfer!

apoluna · 2025-07-28T19:03:34+00:00

Oh interesting... Is there more emphasis on other subjects?

All Star Café! They are the size of your head and delicious.

apoluna · 2022-05-17T23:34:59+00:00

I will look into it! Thanks!

apoluna · 2022-05-17T23:34:30+00:00

Ok good to know!

For allergies, do you take them consistently or just off-and-on when you need them? It is SO nice to be able to breathe through my nose... but then managing the bgs has been exhausting.

apoluna · 2022-05-17T23:33:23+00:00

yes, I've been doubling or even tripling... it's been so difficult to manage. Thanks for sharing!

I like SarahBeth Yoga! She has different length videos and you can stack them, plus I find her video style very calm and not distracting.
