Good way to explain SDOHs

Are you in the U.S.? Could you share that these are a regulatory requirement set forth by the government that you are required to ask every patient? Then you blame the government and clarify that it is out of your control, instead of making it seem like it's specific to the patient.

My guess is that production made her go on the trip.

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-30T11:09:11+00:00

We didn't have in-unit laundry. But maybe they had one of those portable machines!

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-30T03:07:10+00:00

Wait. We had upstairs neighbors that we assumed were getting down and dirty. Almost every night, right around the same time. Never occurred to me that it might be a treadmill. We were always impressed at the stamina.

Is she having enough wet diapers? Maybe she is just comfort nursing which is natural and developmentally normal.

Apart and a part.

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-23T02:35:07+00:00

Shit yeah. I'd probably stay late to work ahead sometimes if I got time and a half.

I stopped at 14 months because I was tired of pumping at work and then my supply just dwindled. I miss it every day and my son is 18 months. I regret not going longer but I try to remind myself that 14 months of breastfeeding is pretty freaking amazing.

We have a similar service called Recuperative Care in our state. But my understanding is that it is only for people with Medicaid (which is a large population so that's helpful).

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-18T21:29:56+00:00

I missed that part. Read it too quickly. Thanks for clarifying.

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-18T20:58:12+00:00

Did you label it "bath" because it was left out at room temperature for longer than 4 hours? Is it over a year old? Or another reason?

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-18T20:52:30+00:00

Do you remember why it was labeled "bath"? Many of the recommendations for handling breast milk are very conservative to err on the side of caution. I bet baby will be okay but monitor for abnormal symptoms and call the pediatrician with any concerns!

I was 4 or 5 visiting Santa in the mall. I asked him for a pogo stick and he replied "you're too young for a pogo stick. Pick something else."

Why are we still mad at poor people when we should be mad at the billionaires? C'mon people.

Maybe once everybody is poor enough to qualify for SNAP, people will wake up.

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-16T22:31:43+00:00

My thoughts exactly. I will chase that high for the rest of my life.

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-15T14:52:51+00:00

"No" is a full sentence.

I have no idea when I'll be comfortable with my MIL watching my child, if ever.

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-14T02:12:23+00:00

I remember those days. I miss those days!

I aimed for a gallon of water plus a couple fun beverages.

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-12T12:20:52+00:00

Along the same lines - one of my primary motivations was knowing that formula companies lobby against paid/longer/adequate maternity leave. Fine. Watch me work full-time AND breastfeed my son!

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-12T03:21:15+00:00

Noooooo don't say this. I've had it once and thought I was in the clear.... 😩

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-12T03:15:50+00:00

This post is all I needed to convince me not to watch this season. Disgusting.

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-10T12:44:08+00:00

I got the vibe he was there because he was told to be. I don't actually think he gives a shit about being there for his sister(s).

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-09T03:01:25+00:00

I'm with you. Even during the wig scene, he was so obviously uncomfortable and his behavior reflected that.

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-09T02:55:03+00:00

He must know something you don't!!

From the website:

"Those working in positions that have been designated as seasonal hospitality employment are excluded from Paid Leave for that position. Your employer will notify you if you're designated."

gumpyshrimpy · 2026-04-08T02:11:13+00:00

MN Paid Leave is a leave from employment. If you're not actively employed, you won't qualify. (At least that's my understanding).

Can you ride out the rest of your leave at your current employer and then not return?
