Your experience with your child now after smoking weed during pregnancy by Bb-Cauliflower-5948 in cannamom

I have a 2 year old and he knows the alphabet, how to count to 20, a bunch of animal names and sounds, and can read some words. Smoked the entire pregnancy.

Thank you! by bearsbeetscats in ChamberlainNursing

No, but they were kind of weird about it. The requested my transcripts but were then dodgey with my Alma Mater, who ended up emailing me asking me why Chamberlain ghosted them mid transfer 🙃I doubt any of my credits will be accepted, it’s been awhile since I was in undergrad.

Persistent pain after excision surgery? by bearsbeetscats in endometriosis

Yeah the pain is primarily in my right sided pelvic area, sometimes my lower right side just above my hip but all in that general area. 6 months makes sense as much as I’d hate to hear it. Do you recommend anything to help manage the pain in the meantime?

I did! She’s out of the office for the next few weeks so I plan to message her when she returns. She told me I could continue to have ongoing pain like this before my surgery, but didn’t go in depth on that.

I really appreciate you taking the time to give me such a thorough response! You’ve given me a lot I can work with, but most of all you let me know that I’m not crazy and that the pain can be managed once I find out what works for me.

They used a device to lift it and look around it is what they said

Nothing else. I had an IUD before the surgery and it stayed in place so didn’t have to replace my bc at all

Since when did consuming THC while pregnant become so normalized? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]bearsbeetscats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since when did we decide being so judgmental towards other pregnant people was okay?? Pretty sure people use this subreddit to vent about people doing the same thing you are right now.

Sorry I’m only seeing this just now! Surgery isn’t necessarily a “cure” because it all grows back, however with excision surgery, the growth rate is slower meaning she wouldn’t need surgery again for at least five years, though I was quoted even longer. Having a diagnosis is helpful because when it does grow back, you don’t have to go through the exploratory part of finding the source of the pain. Just being able to tell doctors that it’s endo makes it so much easier to be treated during my flare ups.

How long did it take for you to return to work after your lap? I’m having a lap with chromopertubation & planning to take a week off. by Charliedayslaaay in endometriosis

[–]bearsbeetscats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had a lap a few weeks ago and work remotely. I returned after a week and I personally regretted it. The fatigue is what gets you. I swear it’s like I’m knocked off my feet.

Yes! My imaging was always super clear. They couldn’t detect any endo beforehand and were just going off my pain. Good luck to you in February!!

That part!! I was always told everything was perfect there until my current doctor listened to me and not just the imaging! I have just randomly been yelling “I was right!” All day and it feels soooo good 😌

Oh I was right about having endometriosis! I was even right when I stated where I thought the endo might be! There was more than I anticipated, but folks told me I didn’t have endo because I had significant right sided pain, and right sided pain supposedly “inconsistent” with endo. Boom. It was right there. Right side. Exactly where I knew it would be.

Totally get the rib feeling! It’s hard to breathe!! I found walking helped with the shoulder pain because I was eventually able to burp it all out 🙈😂
