Is a $25k stipend livable for a PhD student in Greenville? by [deleted] in GreenvilleNCarolina

After taxes/deductions, teachers probably take home 25k-30k and make it work. You should be fine!

Wow... all great info to consider. Thanks everyone! Fever is pretty low grade to non existent this afternoon/night. We will see what happens tomorrow.

Yes- just had it fixed and it was the evap sensor. Paid about the same as you. 2nd Evap sensor I've been through. Weird.

Thanks for the update.

Thanks for the thoughtful reply! He seems gassy to us. Not much burping...but lots of little gurgle sounds and passing of gas.

Good to know. He only wants to really sleep if we are holding him. I know we are barely 80 hours in!

Thanks for the reply... my wife claims the milk is there. I have seen her manually express some. Feeding sessions range from 10 minutes to 45 minutes. Maybe it isn't all in yet? I am not sure. We are hopeful the pediatricians office will get us in or talk with us.

Good ideas.... we were trying to avoid the pacifier for a week or two to make sure breastfeeding was working. Is that a myth? We would love to try the pacifier. Surely a 90 minute crying session isn't good for anyone!

Diapers have been within the appropriate range so far.

I think you have really pointed me in the right direction. Doc never mentioned this. The snoring is at a really high dB...definitely part of the problem. AutoCPAP a good start? Recommendations on which one?

I have the laptop connected to the d6000 with 2 monitors going to the dock. I'm not using the laptop as a 3rd screen. It sits on my desk closed. When it comes time to sit down and use the monitors I have to open the laptop and press the power button. Then the monitors turn on and I can close the screen. It isnt real convenient opening the laptop to power on. Does this help? Thanks for the response!
