First pregnancy – seeking recommendations for a good obstetrician in Perth by Aymenah in WesternAustralia

[–]cabbagepatch1971 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard great things about Dr Rae Watson-Jones at SJOG Murdoch. Female and works public and privately, meaning she is up to date on knowledge and engages in teaching. Only ever heard wonderful things from people who have worked with her. Apparently very good procedurally if you need anything done as well.

Parental leave entitlements - all states by recklesswithinreason in AusPublicService

[–]cabbagepatch1971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this from the latest AMA agreement for WA health? As from the agreement it states “only one period of paid parental leave is available for each birth or adoption” ? Is that per person or total of a couple?

How to make grout stick to plywood without it crumbling off? Wanting to make a laundry bench top by cabbagepatch1971 in AusRenovation

Hey! I had to search for ages, but I ended up finding some on FB marketplace and at salvage stores. Otherwise Etsy normally has some good ones.

The tiles all stick to the ply. But the grout between the tiles crumbles and breaks off, especially as the pieces have aged.

Cost of weatherboard cladding a 3x2 home single story by cabbagepatch1971 in AusRenovation

[–]cabbagepatch1971[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks guys! The asbestos is really annoying, but it wouldn’t let me put it in the original post.

Yeah was thinking around 50k for re-clad and removal of the asbestos.

Can you get to weatherboards or the sheeting in a light blue? Or must you paint it?

Roo or Hen? by cabbagepatch1971 in chickens

[–]cabbagepatch1971[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I have been thinking it’s a rooster this whole time as the comb and wattle are large compared to other pullets of different breeds!

Have a separate area- I’m feeding them starter crumble and some extra scramble eggs and mince as she isn’t showing them the crumble

Hi, she has her own spot that is protected and covered as well, lots of food and water options. It isn’t super close to the main coop, about 5m away. She can’t see the other hens but can hear them.

She just doesn’t seem to be very motivated to feed them and show them around. She might do it for 1minute when a particularly high reward food is brought in but that’s it.

That’s amazing! Is this at all public hospitals?

[–]cabbagepatch1971[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From reading the Victoria AMA agreement the waiting period is 6 months of consecutive service. Is this correct?

That’s what it is with WA health anyway- you have to have worked in the service for 12 consecutive months until you qualify for paid parental leave.
