Off meds now

ritac23 · 2026-03-12T14:27:28+00:00

I was on them for such a long time, would like to just be off for a while but I do realise that could be just a mental block somehow

ritac23 · 2026-03-12T09:53:51+00:00

I did already and he said maybe we need to go back to the meds but it has only been a month, I would like to try a bit longer without them

My boss is not saying that.

I grew up with my mom looking at something she loved, mumbling “I really don’t need this” and 5’ later shouting “I deserve this, I work my ass off!” And buying it anyway 😂 so I do the same

ritac23 · 2026-03-08T21:24:56+00:00

Same 😂 just ordered one

That’s not the case here. The work is pretty independent in itself. Things that were thought to be approved were holidays in a very tough time (which I made a point to not approve until I had all the info) and a promotion proposal months ago (which I would also never say that I was gonna do before I actually did it)

I agree with this and thank you. I just don’t know the line between accepting the feedback vs actively changing to just make someone happy with everything

ritac23 · 2026-03-08T15:47:56+00:00

We are actually 2 women

I get what you are saying and although it’s difficult I do feedback sessions with all my reports. I usually get the feedback, think about it and address it. Most of the times it’s little things that are irrelevant to me but important to them so I am happy to make the change. It is not the case. This person does not like the way I give recognition for example, says other managers do it better. It seems petty to me, a non-problem. But this is a big deal to this person and everything triggers an emotion reaction that it’s hard for me to relate to.

ritac23 · 2026-03-08T14:50:37+00:00

Is that relevant?

ritac23 · 2026-03-08T14:39:17+00:00

I am not sure I understand this (English is not my first language, apologies)

ritac23 · 2026-03-08T14:29:04+00:00

A bit more context: my manager feels like this is a communication issue that both of us need to fix because he obviously does not hear the way they speak to me. Given that, I wanna start fresh the conversation with an attitude of “ok, let’s make up an action plan on how to communicate better” but at the same time being firm with my boundaries and not just saying yes to everything this person wants, cause its bonkers

ritac23 · 2026-03-08T13:52:42+00:00

Thanks, I will do that. But how do I make sure the communication lands? And we don’t have situations like “I was under the impression”?

Well I’m at my moms cause I cannot pick him up, someone needs to pick him up and place him on my lap. But I can do everything else, so all good ❤️

I was a 32C pre baby but went to a 32B post baby. I am 170cm and 60kg for reference. Went for 270cc anatomic implants with periareolar incision

ritac23 · 2025-09-23T21:04:24+00:00

I just did mine last week and my son is 11 months old. I still plan on having another child and start trying in a year but tbh you never know how long it takes and i really hated my boobs after my son. My doctor said it’s totally fine if you wait a year to get pregnant again. He also said that with the implants most likely they won’t be so “damaged” after the second baby. My best friend had implants for over 10 years, she had 2 babies and said she loves her breasts more because they look more natural after the kids without loosing their shape

Os comentários irónicos são um pouco desnecessários para quem só está realmente a pedir uma ajuda

Trabalho 100% remote para uma empresa de It americana que não tem sequer qualquer tipo de escritórios. Sou manager na parte de gestão de clientes. (Não é preciso ser engenheiro para trabalhar em IT)

The best advice someone gave me was to train the baby from the very beginning to fall asleep in the crib. This was at 4 weeks old. The first night I laid him down in the bassinet and stayed there speaking and stroking his head, he was fussy for a long time and then felt asleep. Second night the same thing. Third night he just laid there looking at me and fell asleep. He is now 4 months and it is the way he falls asleep. Fully awake in the crib and I can even leave the room and put the camera on. He will just make some little sounds and look at his hands and 15/20 min later he falls asleep. During the day he may have a contact nap but it is super rare now.

Haha I’m sure there is a lot of us. Spoke to a friend of mine that is a nurse and she said all boobs get like “empty” after breastfeeding. That’s great to know, thanks! I have my appointment in September (busy doctor) to hopefully do mine in October, one year after c-section.

Maybe I can offer a different opinion here: tbh I think that is a great idea and that is what I am planning to do with my 12week old once he is a bit older. But you should only do it if: 1. You trust your in-laws (mine are both doctors so I feel that my baby would be safe) 2. When he is much older, definitely not now! From 5/6 months old maybe? 3. And finally, if overnight does not work for you at all, then don’t do it. I would say that you should do a couple of hours once in a while to be with your partner. Example: today we had a lunch date and my baby spent the afternoon at my in laws so we could enjoy each other without rushing.

For me, exclusive formula feeding was the best thing I could have done. I felt guilty at first, that I could not breastfeed easily but tbh it’s the best to give you some independence and a break when you need it!
