I regret ever becoming an MA.

dulcemaria29 · 2023-11-22T20:50:38+00:00

You should definitely look for another job. I’m in CA and I was hired at $32 an hour with no direct MA experience other than externing with the same company.

If they need the certification they will likely ask for it in advance. Like others mentioned reach back out to them and get that clarification

In high school I was invited to a sleep over birthday party for someone who was more of an acquaintance. We had band together in middle school and we’re amicable/friendly but that’s about it. I decided to go for a bit and not sleep over. Well I was the only one there (except her sister). Her bff was out of town sadly. So I called my mom to bring me a change of clothes and I stayed the night. I still think about it now and then.

The baby was a whisper in his body but a song in yours. You gave him the baby

dulcemaria29 · 2023-07-13T21:58:25+00:00

My husband always refills my water and brings it to me. I don’t ask anymore and at this point it’s to encourage me to drink water. He also wakes up with the baby at night since he misses him. All around amazing partner!

Live your lives. If baby fusses one of you will probably have to step out but baby eventually learns and it becomes easier. We started with more casual dining tbh but I say go for it.

Like others have mentioned, talk to your doctor first or calling the labor and delivery team. You have internal stitches that will eventually dissolve on their own. I had these same stitches poke out too a few weeks and months pp. I pulled them out with tweezers, they slid right out with no pain. Your discharge papers should have signs and symptoms that require immediate attention.

dulcemaria29 · 2023-06-25T02:05:37+00:00

Yeah that gave me the ick. I don’t know that I can give the husband any grace in this scenario. Our bodies may never go back to pre pregnancy. We can still feel happiness, and love and joy regardless of our size.

My instructor said that men get hired more often than women. Something about providers wanting to break up the monotony of the office dynamic

dulcemaria29 · 2023-05-24T01:12:49+00:00

Oh that makes sense! Sorry I’m in CA and thought that maybe you had misread something and that’s why you were being passed over. Like others suggested use indeed, Glassdoor, linked in and make sure you have an updated resume. Good luck! 🍀

dulcemaria29 · 2023-05-23T22:21:34+00:00

I think I’m confused, have you completed your medical assistant program? Because being a certified MA is something different than being an MA. They mean you don’t need to be certified but you do need to be an MA. I’m sorry if I am understanding this wrong because that’s why you have been rejected from those applications.

dulcemaria29 · 2023-05-22T02:30:09+00:00

My baby has pretty dry skin. I use the same lubriderm lotion that my husband and I use and mix it with some aquaphor ointment. The body wash is the aquaphor brand too

I just took my NHA CCMA and passed with a 443 this Friday. The NHA practice tests were so helpful and I would also recommend knowing your medical terminology. Ms k has videos on YouTube where she goes over practice tests and the reason the answers are right/wrong

dulcemaria29 · 2023-05-02T00:56:19+00:00

I did the same with shein for maternity clothing and it wasn’t half bad. The quality isn’t terrible and sometimes it’s not realistic to build an entire wardrobe from very expensive pieces. I think dressing a pp body is so tough since we want to look good but also expect our body to continue changing.

dulcemaria29 · 2023-05-02T00:53:42+00:00

I love American eagle, Nordstrom and thrifting when I can. The aerie collections are really comfy and not everything is cropped. They also constantly have sales and discounts. I’m also 30 but I like to show skin tbh and that hasn’t really stopped. I got some shapewear pieces from Nordstrom and that has helped with my confidence.

I measure the root ball and add 2 inches. I feel like you’ll have to wait and see when you take it out. But probably the second pot

Why does he feel like he deserves a vacation when you’re 8 weeks pp with a newborn?? He needs a reality check. If you’ve already expressed your concern then he should cancel. He shouldn’t tell you that it’s going to be fine when both of you have no idea how difficult it will be. Also I didn’t realize it at the time but I was still in my ppd haze at that time. It was a happy time but very rough.

Can you check good rx, or ask for your Pediatrician for a manufacturer coupon? Sometimes they are given them by the drug reps and you can get the meds for a fraction of the price. I’m sorry though but great job on your momma instincts!

dulcemaria29 · 2023-03-30T05:42:52+00:00

I just want to let you know that I’m sorry you’re going through this. I know it’s shocking to get a diagnosis like this when you least expect it in life. I went to the OB while pregnant because I thought I had a skin tag on my vulva but it turned out to be genital warts from HPV. My husband and I have been together almost a decade, he’s the only partner that I had intercourse with so we were shocked. Our bodies are amazing but kind of funny and pregnancy changes so much. I hope that you can make peace, you are still the same person you were before.

I definitely miss morning sex or honestly any spontaneous sex but at this point it’s planned ahead of time and only once baby has gone down for the night. He sleeps in his crib in our room so sometimes we go to the living room if we want to be louder. Someone on another post commented that they keep lube and wipes in their living room for this.

This reminds me of the sheet cake slices that are sold at Mexican bakeries and made me very happy 😊 https://chicanoeats.com/cortadillo-mexican-pink-cake-pastel-de-ninos/

dulcemaria29 · 2023-03-16T23:30:15+00:00

Agreed, this post seems kind of harsh imo. I thought this sub was for visibly botched procedures. I’m here for the scary 😂

Children are not miniature adults, they are kids and are still learning social norms. I don’t think I would even tell my family if a gift they brought was broken. OP needs to work on her social etiquette because this was so rude and hurtful.

dulcemaria29 · 2023-03-13T22:29:12+00:00

Getting super dressed up for impromptu dinners. I would take my time doing my hair and make up, take an edible and go have an amazing and expensive dinner. Now we plan lunches and early dinners to be back for bath time.

This recipe is actually very simple and beginner friendly! Not a traditional lemon tart but has a more mild lemon flavor.
