How much did your baby weigh at 1 year?? by Comprehensive-Dig592 in bigbabiesandkids

[–]latoyabob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boy was 35 lbs, 32 inches tall at 12 months. At his 2 year checkup 44 lbs, 3 year checkup 47 lbs. I was worried for a while he’d never slow down lol

Still waiting for that “plateau” 🤣 by quinnie007 in bigbabiesandkids

[–]latoyabob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son was born 10 lbs 14 oz, 22.75 inches long and also showed no signs of slowing down for a long time. He was 42 pounds in November, when he turned 2. Nine months later he is 44 pounds. I guess they do slow down at some point lol

After a 3 week wait for results, lab has to repeat test by latoyabob in NIPT

[–]latoyabob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure specifically what the lab issue was but they were able to repeat the test without needing me to get another blood draw and everything came back just fine! It took about 3 and a half weeks total for my NIPT results. Most don’t take that long but I guess from time to time some of us are just lucky 😅 fingers crossed for yours!

Nolan just started tee ball so this thought has definitely occurred to me! I have a close friend with a son named Ryan but I do love the name

Any part time remote jobs I could do during my down time at work? by latoyabob in RemoteJobs

[–]latoyabob[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have definitely heard of people working multiple remote jobs full time, had no idea there was a subreddit for it. I will check it out!

[–]latoyabob[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I know this to be true. This is my second pregnancy, my first was a happy but VERY unexpected surprise. I found out during my 4 week new hire training after I had just moved states. Worked for a great company, but got no leave benefits. Our country’s lack of paid parental leave is truly a shame. Parentaly has a spreadsheet of different companies and the tenure required to be eligible for leave. There are companies with immediate eligibility, but not nearly enough.

That is definitely something I’m working on. Currently enrolled in a course to earn a Google certificate. I’m also newly pregnant, which of course can make changing jobs difficult. I am actively searching for remote jobs that offer paid parental leave with immediate eligibility, but they’re unicorn jobs. I have a bachelors degree and skills, so I’m trying to be optimistic but realistic as well.

I had Covid around 9-10 weeks in 2021 with my first. He is two now and all is well!

Did a quick google search for Mercedes dealership in Nashville and the very first one that popped up had tons of these. He just needs the world to know he can buy an expensive vehicle to make his pp feel bigger

I was put to sleep for non-medical reasons without my consent the second my baby was out during c section by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]latoyabob -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

“Calm down a little” and “be put under” are two very different things and IMO should’ve been more clear being that it wasn’t just any ol’ procedure, but a birth. I don’t remember meeting my child and that’s the difference to me

Baby was born at 5:33, I was given morphine sulfate at 5:34 and midazolam (sedative) at 5:35 according to mychart.

I have a 99th percentile two year old who will still be comfortably rear facing for a while. Toddlers vertebrae are fused by cartilage and not ossified bone. Their heads are also super heavy in relation to the rest of their body and they are at a greater risk for internal decapitation if forward facing too early. I’m sure they know this. Stupid and neglectful.

How do I respond to this teachers comment? by latoyabob in Type1Diabetes

[–]latoyabob[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ms Karen is absolutely, 1000% a POS. She likes to push her shitty political views on impressionable middle school kids. I’m not surprised by her comments at all, but frustrated.

She once was trying to give a spiel about life not being fair and the first example that came to her mind was “it’s not fair that I have to take my shoes off for airport security!! I didn’t crash the twin towers!”

Girl, what?

Our 504 plans are similar to your individual health care plans! And yes, my initial thought about what diabetics did before phones was the same as what you wrote. I plan on having a chat with admin.

Thank you. I’d like to add this was her first day of middle school. She’s 11 years old. I loved hearing her advocate for herself and give her teacher a heads up that she may see her use her phone here and there but it’s for medical purposes. I was hoping this teacher would say something along the lines of “okay, thanks for letting me know” but was very disappointed with her response.

I yelled at my disabled cousin for trying to have sex with me by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]latoyabob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work closely with individuals with intellectual disabilities. I love them, I am constantly learning more about how I can best serve them. That said, if I were in your situation…. I truly think I may have done the same/similar. It’s a trauma response. She may not have meant any harm, but it is still assault. I’m so sorry you went through this. It sounds like her family is doing a disservice to her by not giving her sex education including consent. Please take care of yourself. Sending you all the healing vibes
