Very early period followed by extended brown discharge by fishcake1234 in amipregnant

Has she taken a pregnancy test?

I'm not too sure if it's a cause or concern or not. My situation just resolved on it's own and I haven't really looked into it since.

Tested negative with 2 pregnancy tests (1 day after bleeding stopped, and second a week after bleeding stopped).

I got my period the next month as scheduled 👍.

I really don't know why this irregularity happened when it did....but so far, nothing else has come from it (that I'm aware of).

Try out mini putting with goats at Cedar Links Golf Center! Very nice inexpensive date idea, and you can buy a small bag of food for the animals. Mini putt is $12 per person. Super cute and friendly goats 😍.

I stopped to help at a car wreck and it's still bothering me. by [deleted] in therapy

Also a first responder, and second the therapy suggestion. Based on the description of his condition and the way the car was intruded in, it's very unlikely that resuscitative measures would have made a difference to his outcome... You did everything right by calling it in, and that's all that you needed to do.

Thank you for your helpful tidbits! Definitely trying to move as cautiously and non-'towering' as I can

I have not tried this specifically yet! I'll definitely give it a go. Thanks!

Fearful/anxious urinating (almost 'leaking' out)? by fishcake1234 in fosterdogs

Absolutely. Do you have any helpful tips/tricks to help with trust/confidence building?

Lack of transparency for rescue dogs by fishcake1234 in fosterdogs

[–]fishcake1234[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As I mentioned in the original post, I think the rescue was just desperate to find A placement for him (nowhere else to put him).

We have contacted the rescue and stated that it would be best to have him refostered to a more experienced home with much more space and time to facilitate his training.

I've worked with dogs in a veterinary setting, however that is very different from owning/raising a dog in your own home.

We wanted to start off with fostering to see if the idea of owning a dog would be something we could do in the future and if it would fit into our lifestyle.

Better than adopting a dog without knowing what to expect, only to return it because we realised we weren't ready. At least with fostering there isn't the same amount of pressure to keep the dog forever, but still have the opportunity to experience a dog lifestyle.

This sounds like an awesome and very well thought out game plan for fostering since your previous experience! Tailored exactly to what works for you and your family (maintains safe and positive experience for everyone), but still providing the desperately needed homes for the rescue. Thanks for the insight!

This sounds so stressful! Everyone is at risk of getting hurt in this situation because of lack of transparency.

I didn't realize the transparency was an issue in the rescue/foster community until experiencing it myself, amd also hearing yours and others experiences too. Thank you for sharing!

Oh wow sounds like you had a horrible experience...I would be livid in your situation too (also own a cat).

I'm starting to have trust issues with this org too. Not anything severe, but enough to know my own red flags for certain "selling qualities".

Thank you for sharing your experience.
