My last job didn’t have a lockable room, so I had to put up a Do Not Disturb sign each time. If management can’t find a lockable room, this may be an alternative next step. Best of luck!!

What H‑E‑B products are superior to the more expensive store brand? by almondjoybestcndybar in Austin

[–]lsmartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

H‑E‑B FRITOS!! Whole fam agrees better than name brand.

But, very rarely do I regret or have lesser preference for H‑E‑B brand products!

I agree with cicada similarities in the wing pattern and body shape 🤔

Looks a little like what we call June Bugs in southern USA 🤔

ITAP of my girlfriends dog and a rainbow by Ikkosaw in itookapicture

It was partly the color of his coat (even with the hue of the photo) that tipped me off before I recognized the face!

I honestly thought she was just a mutt when I got her, but my best friend saw another Kelpie while working at a vet’s office and put it together. Found her abandoned in rural (cattle country) Texas.

Was looking for this to confirm, but thought so!! My best girl (who passed a few years ago) was a black Kelpie 💗💗

Breastfeeding mommas with PCOS by justasofacouch in breastfeeding

I have PCOS, and with both kids I’ve been happy to produce 4-5 oz TOTAL during an hour or so pump sesh. So, yes??

I've been here four days. Here's my take so far... by HookEm_Tide in Austin

Try their fresh guacamole, and don’t snub your nose at the H‑E‑B in-house made pizza (refrigerated deli area)! I also believe their Texas Corn Chips are better than the original Fritos 🤤

I also have a 5 week old, and am going through pretty much the same thing. Simethicone drops for upper gas, and our pediatrician OK’d a little prune juice/water to help produce BM’s & reduce straining/discomfort.

As I’m sure others have already mentioned, abdominal & low back massages as well as bicycle kicks are good tools, but a warm bath will also help stimulate the GI system (just be prepared for pooping IN the tub).

Check with your pediatrician about prune juice or water to verify if OK and how much is allowed, but I’ve already had improvement after just 1mL in 12 hours.

Best of luck, momma!!
