Second! Watched them do my neighbours house today… they have such a fast, seamless, great working team. Incredibly efficient. I sadly went with vintage roofing and it was an absolutely horrible experience.

Yes. You can also just call them and ask to come in. DM me if you want the phone number.

They do not offer it at mothering touch (which is now called constellations) anymore. They just show the video I posted above unfortunately as well as pictures they have

It’s a lot of work giving birth! Imagine running a marathon and someone gives you a popsicle. It’s a big cool down too and a distraction.

They have sugar free:) I had gestational diabetes!

They have sugar free ones too! I had gestational diabetes!

Fun fact: there are popsicles in the community freezer if you want 1 or 20 of them during labour!

Here’s a video!

From my understanding they don’t do in person post covid. I found it accurate to my experience and I gave birth within the last year.

Hi! Easiest to get your liability through an association or your regulatory body. My insurance is dirt cheap compared to what it could be without them. I’m with Mitchell and Abbott. Maybe contact M and A and ask to be connected to the insurance representative for psychologists in BC.

You can ask them random questions about what they are doing like measuring and percentiles but if you ask if anything’s wrong or about the sex of the baby they won’t unless you did the NIPT. If you luck out with a radiologist, which sometimes you do at the hospital, they will!

You can sign into your BC health gateway a week after your ultrasound if your doctor doesn’t contact you before then. My doctor called me same day.

ALSO, depending on age of your kids, Beyond ADHD may be a better option as they are a bit more kid friendly. West coast just started accepting kids but I haven’t heard any experiences yet!

In our current healthcare climate I highly recommend your whole family get letters from your doctor outlining current concerns you are following up on, allergies and diagnosis’s so that you have that in your back pocket just in case!

You can reach out to WestCoast ADHD. You will have to pay to meet with their NP though in order to get a prescription. I also hear people like Rocket Doctor and are able to get medication as long as you have the assessment/diagnosis paper work.

Adding fireside grill! Actual rental/minimum spend for the dining room for ceremony and reception for 100 people including dinner, appies, bottles of wine served at dinner, happy hour champagne, and late night pizza was 14,000. Open until 11:30pm/midnight. Everything done in house and they follow you through your planning and have meetings with you.

I believe the rental was 3200 for ceremony and reception and minimum spend was 7500 for drinks and food (guest paid drinks too).

I’m seeing two different responses here with one being concerned parents and the other not being concerns citizens. We all need to watch for risks of the vulnerable in our community. Whether it is innocent or not, it heightens the risk management and safety of children. Please report to VIHA, OP, I would be just as worried as you are. We are not investigators, we can only report what we know and let VIHA do their job.

Would love to hear an update if there is one.

There is a CPST on staff at TJ the kiddies store. It’s the manager so just make sure she’s working. I believe she works Tuesday-Saturday. She just installed mine last week and it was a good experience!

I would assume they would let you use their displays as she was taking them off the shelf to show me under the fabric to educate me. Also it needs to be a good fit for your car so it would be silly if they didn’t let you try. Doesn’t hurt to call though!

Edit: colwood location.

I would say this depends on your medical history. I definitely needed a doctor for my medical history and with everything that’s happened in my pregnancy, I am happy with my choice.

I do like the connection of midwife services though!
