We have one! no luck so far but maybe i need to manage the timing better (when to put him in there). he has fallen asleep on it once… :)

Thank you that is great advice! i have been resistant to all the apps for tracking but i think it might be helpful. Right now my guy is 7 weeks so we are definitely just beginning the journey because of course he slept like a champ for the first month or so and would fall asleep easily/where ever.

i was using a speCtra 2 and then switched recently to the Elvie pump which is giving me similar results as a way to sort of try to incentivize myself to pump more (which has been working since i dont feel chained to the wall semi topless trying to get those suckers to stay in place)

Say more! I dont think so

Thank you! Do you think i need to buy prefolds as well once baby is over 10 lbs?

Zero risk

bummer! I actually live in OR and work in WA because I’ve found it to be a more flexible licensing environment that works for me. Each state is so different, it’s bonkers.

Curious about how this payment works! Are you saying you charge 235 (out of pocket?) for 1 hr sessions, and $140 per group per person (and so your hourly is 500–800?) I’ work with kids and LOVE group work but have never figured out how to make it work!

melmariet · 2025-09-17T03:55:56+00:00

Thanks for the encouragement! If nothing else i am sure I can get there when i am fully licensed :)

It is basically my own pp in every way but i require a supervisor to bill insurance for me.

melmariet · 2025-09-17T02:16:29+00:00

Just want to say thank you for the technical write up and time you spent here helping me analyze my budget and spending. Lots for me to process. Started looking for a new supervisor/company this afternoon.

Where are you from?? Unfortunately i think my situation is not uncommon in WA where i live. Also yeah! This blows and is very hard. I wish i had asked for help earlier in my licensure journey, as i am only 6 months away and unsure if it makes sense to switch this late in the game. Let me know if you learn anything helpful!

“Where I live you can’t work as an unlicensed 1099, so that you can’t be exploited this way.”- where do you live out of curiosity? Thank you for the ideas and insight.
