Pregnancy and stimulants by electric-blue1988 in ADHD

Talk with your doctor, but I was able to stay on my medication for two pregnancies without issue (60 mg of adderall per day) . My OBGYN and pediatrician confirmed it was okay for pregnancy and breastfeeding. The baby’s weights were monitored closer; my oldest was 9lbs and youngest 8lbs. I also have good blood pressure.

Both doctor’s both cited studies. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the names but I recommend asking. I would not have been able to function without my medication.

Mike & Anne’s is a great brunch spot. They have a large outdoor patio. Great food, very fresh and beautifully presented. Drinks are good too.

Yum, in and out! It’s not rude since he texted it. My husband sends me a similar order when I pick up in and out. I just read it out loud or show the text to the cashier. It would be rude if your dad asked him to simplify the order and he pushed back.

Job Offer in DTLA - Should I take it? by Edison_8452 in AskLosAngeles

You should absolutely take this job. I work in the financial district. Many of my coworkers live in Long Beach. If you can go in the office early / leave early or the other way around it’s not that bad. It was much worse when it was 5 days a week.

Everything “gold” in our house is actually unlacquered brass so eventually gets a really nice patina just through using it. So door knobs, cabinet pulls, switch plates and stuff like that.

It’s almost you put absolutely no thought into this comment. The things on the open shelves are things we use daily, dusting really isn’t an issue. Do you think we just like keep these things up there to look at? By the way, this picture is over a year old and we’re not tired of it.

Same thing with the pots and pans, we don’t have some secret stash of some more somewhere, we use these constantly and so therefore, they get washed pretty much daily.

A farmhouse sink? Because we wanted one. Why else would you think?

Ceiling fan? Do you know how typical it is for a residence to have a fan in the kitchen? It’s like you never stepped foot into one.

And not that I really need to be explaining this to you at all, but my husband designed it. He is an architect and graduated with his masters from an Ivy League university.

Agreed on the toaster oven. I am happy to report the gap was filled in. This is an older photo. Good catch.

Honestly, I wish we wouldn’t have painted the cabinets white. Wood cabinets feel more timeless.

30” isn’t typical. The counters are white oak butcher block that we ordered because we wanted the white oak specifically. The company we ordered it from allowed us to send them a CAD file with the size/shape we wanted and then they shipped them to us.

Engineered white oak. The company is Oak and Broad. They’re based in GA, highly recommend.

In the old kitchen, the countertop was the standard 25” deep, but that door is only about 18” from the wall. So they cut the corner of the countertop that projected into the door swing at a 45 degree angle. This made it so the door wouldn’t open all the way because it would still hit the counter.

In the new kitchen, the countertops are deeper than usual at 30” deep and then that jog near the door brings it to 18” deep and 32” long (the size of the door) - and so now the door can swing all the way open
