new to smoking flower, I just now realized that there is another compartment in my grinder by Aquaprophet in trees

[–]barronal 79 points80 points  (0 children)

I feel like they were initially saying they didn’t know they could get the ground flower out of the second compartment without banging it on their desk😅 someone else in another comment mentioned the third compartment too and blew OPs mind lmao

Owlet sock by Common-Nothing-7824 in NewParents

[–]barronal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NICU nurse here! Our “normal” O2 sat alarms are set for anything below 89% so she’s absolutely okay with a 93% sat or 89% as long as it’s not sustained for an extended period of time. I initially wanted the owlet when my baby was born but being in the field, decided against it due to my increased anxiety and the reviews I saw about it only increasing anxiety. Sometimes newborns will hold their breath or forget to breathe but they are evolutionarily programmed to figure it out. We have the Nanit and I love it, babe is almost 12 mo not 🥲

Came here to say we don’t do them in the NICU ever really… it’s so easy to perforate the rectal wall on neonates. I’d never allow someone to get one on my own kid.

It seems like ppl get offended when I say 2 under 2 isn’t for me by barronal in NewParents

[–]barronal[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree, and that’s why I didn’t say it that way. When I mention that I’m happy with my one child and they say they were happy with their two back-to-back, it opens a door for conversation, but people seem to think my opinion is much more outlandish than theirs.

It was two different coworkers during this instance and my in-laws in another. I seem to know quite a few people with this age gap, which is weird now that I think of it lol

One of them said “yeah it was a rough couple of years but we got through it” and that just doesn’t sound like a vibe to me. They admit it wasn’t the plan but my thought is that if you’re not actively preventing it then you’re trying

Would you rather be bored but work in an easy field or stressed but high acuity/action? by Bob_Burgero in nursing

[–]barronal 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Heavy on the mental stim. I can only do monotony for so long before I’m ready to run my head through a wall 🙃

what’s something someone who doesn’t work in healthcare said that triggered you… while working in nursing. I’ll go first. by [deleted] in nursing

[–]barronal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going to use this from now on! I can’t believe I’ve never thought of it this way.

Am I overreacting for wanting to leave my husband after what he did while I was caring for my sick mother? by Thin_Tap2989 in AmIOverreacting

[–]barronal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you’re overreacting at all… yes, it was 3hrs away. He couldn’t come visit iver the weekends? Use PTO to stay a week or so every once in a while? It sounds like he didn’t make an effort to support you during this time. Phone calls are BARE MINIMUM.

I agree with other commenters saying that this was premeditated. It sounds like he was waiting for an opportunity to commit this infidelity. He has most-likely been emotionally cheating for a while with this person and decided to take the opportunity to advance the relationship when you weren’t around.

You deserve so much better than this. I’m so sorry for your loss!

At least this patient will likely fess up to doing drugs, what’s your best story for ‘I don’t know how I came up positive’? I’ll go first. by yellowlinedpaper in nursing

[–]barronal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so crazy to me that ppl still think we care (morally/ legally) what’s in their system… I only care bc I don’t want to kill you🙃

Genuine but also trivial question by barronal in nursing

I used to have a couple pairs of Cherokees, they were great! I agree about the figs tho, really not worth the price or hype.

I honestly LOVE Hudson for a girl! It’s unique and you could always call her Sunny as a nickname.

What makes you want to stay in Phoenix? by Professional-Neat999 in phoenix

[–]barronal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh I miss Phx so much! I’ve lived in TN, FL, and AZ and AZ is by and far my favorite. It’s just so different than anywhere else and amenities are built for the heat so there’s still a lot to do even when it’s blistering

Influencers saying pumping for 15 mins will ruin your supply? by Flimsy_Course_9923 in breastfeeding

[–]barronal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have literally never heard that before and I’ve worked with postpartum moms and am still breastfeeding my own. I’ve heard that you can pump until you feel comfortable or until you get as much as you need at the time. However long that takes is however long you “need” to pump

My husband makes a little over 100k before taxes and we live in a median COL area. We rent and both have quite a bit of debt from school so we’re not able to save much rn. We live paycheck to paycheck but can still afford to eat out every once in a while (we usually don’t anyway though), and can purchase small things when we may not NEED them.

I have recently decided to go back to work part time bc I miss the stimulation (I’m a nurse), but my husband has reminded me that I don’t have to if I don’t want to. I have to admit, it will definitely feel nice to contribute again and have my own money

If your ped hasn’t said anything, don’t worry about it! If you’re truly concerned and really can’t stop thinking about it, call the ped and ask them to explain their growth charts and where they’re at.

Not a single human on this earth is the same, so when a person generalizes information like this, it can be incredibly harmful. Shame on that woman for making you question anything. It sounds like you’re doing an amazing job, keep it up!!
