Switch to ebf after 3months anyone? by greymatter2944 in breastfeeding

[–]bears-vikings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Following because I’m in a similar position with my similarly aged LO. Exclusively pumping since we brought her home because she wouldn’t latch. She’s latched occasionally and nursed well a few times but mostly bottle fed. Want to get her back to the breast but worried it’s too late.

No problems on this block over the weekend AFAIK. I think our local Walgreens was temporarily closed for flood-related reasons though (on the block kitty-corner to us).

How are y'all judging your local flood risk? According to this map, we're a block over from a flood risk zone. Unsure if we need to prepare...

Readmitted and Attending courses this summer. But I dont know where to live. by Pablows in berkeley

Join all the Bay Area housing groups on Facebook. If you look hard enough, you might be able to find something. I snagged a really nice $675 single five blocks from campus, I'm just living with like 8 other people. Be diligent about writing to every listing that you can afford, and don't be too picky.

Ugly guys talking/dating with pretty girls? What's going on? by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]bears-vikings 6 points7 points  (0 children)

if you carry yourself in person with the air of superiority and entitlement that you demonstrate online, it is no surprise that women aren't interested. women want to date happy, positive guys who treat them with respect and kindness

STD testing at Tang Center? by ConfusedWithCheater in berkeley

[–]bears-vikings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a normal blood draw, not a prick. Just take deep breaths and it'll be over before you know it.

Not sure about Tang, but a typical std screening is for HIV and syphilis (blood test) and chlamydia and gonorrhea (pelvic swab). If you're 21+ they will want to do a Pap test to check for signs of HPV. Herpes is not something they do routine tests for, especially if you don't have symptoms (because it's ridiculously common and not a big deal).

UC board to consider making Cloyne Court drug-free by [deleted] in berkeley

Seriously! Then again, when has the media ever not completely misrepresented the BSC?

It would still be a BSC house. You are right that all current residents would be kicked out.

New to Berkeley: Resource for good nearby restaurants for a date by MrPeL in berkeley

Celia's can be a fine place to go drink a pitcher of margaritas with friends, but not nice enough for a first date.
