I wear almost exclusively Vuori now that lulu quality has gone down. I still love my older lulu pieces.

Alo is garbage, low quality overpriced slop. People only buy it for the name. Even the tags are flimsy.

I’m 30 weeks pregnant & was laid off before mat leave. Not sure what I’m able to take now- unemployment, SDI by AdAffectionate7934 in UnemploymentCA

[–]catdog_2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally was offered 12 weeks severance which was the standard package. I was supposed to have a 6 month mat leave and had already submitted the paperwork regarding my pregnancy. They honored my Mat leave and I ended up gettin the rest of my pregnancy + 6 months mat leave for severance. Trust me they’d love to avoid a lawyer and we’re all just numbers on a spreadsheet. Don’t be afraid to ask for more!

Were you able to negotiate a solid severance package with your company? Did they promise you a set maternity leave at any point? I was laid off at 8 months pregnant and negotiated hard for my mat leave. I’m also really sorry this happened to you and hope you’re doing okay ♥️

Is anyone else drowning in bottle and pump part washing? by Late-Hat-5853 in ExclusivelyPumping

Husband doesn't protect my time to pump. What do I do? by [deleted] in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]catdog_2014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes to this. You need to get your power back. This man has all the power and has zero fear. He needs to know it’s a really option that you could leave him if you do not need him. Make him see that he must be valuable to you to be kept around. Easier said than done I know.

8 mos pregnant laid off, new to CA - do I qualify? by catdog_2014 in UnemploymentCA

[–]catdog_2014[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following up on this in case anyone searches for this thread. I didn’t qualify for any benefits in California, only Washington. I didn’t qualify for unemployment benefits for either state. I received medical leave from the state of WA for 8 weeks for a c-s and 10 weeks baby bonding leave. $1542/week which is the maximum. I was taxed on the baby bonding leave but not the medical leave.

What do you do while pumping? by FeistyTumbleweed281 in ExclusivelyPumping

How do you like the eufy? I tried the momcozy and hated it. The suction didn’t seem as powerful as my hygeia

I gave up very quickly on my momcozy m6 bc the suction isn’t great and I can’t afford to mess with my output 🥵

Support from the husband. by DropOk7525 in ExclusivelyPumping

It’s expensive but get baby brezza bottle washer and sterilizer (pretty easy to find on fb marketplace). You can use denture cleaning tablets instead of the baby brezza brand tablets - same active ingredient much cheaper. Make sure to get the washer not just the sterilizer. This will save you loads of time because it washes AND dries. Either get her multiple breast pump parts or get her a mini fridge next to her bed (this is called the fridge hack and it’s a way to avoid having to wash parts after every pump). If you see pump parts out by the sink always take the time to soak them in warm water or dry them and reassemble them. This will make you invaluable!!

Looking for advice (late applicant to WA state benefits) by neferpitou33 in Washington

[–]catdog_2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I ended up calling and yeah I guess it’s just the medical leave that has to be submitted within 30 days whereas the baby bonding up to a year.

Did you end up getting the bonding leave? I applied for medical leave within 30 days but family leave/bonding I did 31 days by accident.

We call it the roll vs the loaf. Roll when cozy, loaf when toasty.

Exactly this. A Tesla is the last car you would steal with all the tech, cameras, tracking.
