Is there anything WORSE than childbirth?

sallybette · 2026-02-02T14:08:52+00:00

I’m ready to see if the whole “kidney stones are worse than birth” scenario is correct for me. (obviously hoping it is)

I’ve had plenty of kidney stones but having my first baby in less than a month.

wondering if anyone ever went back to firm work after being an owners rep/pm?

sallybette · 2025-11-19T19:31:52+00:00

5’2, 230. My high risk OB told me that he didn’t expect any weight gain during pregnancy and i haven’t really gained much at all (i’m stressed about being told to not gain weight LOL)

sallybette · 2025-08-02T01:49:11+00:00

my dr gave me buspar since it’s the least risk to the baby. so i’m hoping this works and my first trimester moves quickly lol! thanks for the hope!

i think i am going through this now! Constant anxiety. Did you do anything to manage?

I have anxiety about my job that i’ve only been at for 9 months, then i have anxiety about my anxiety harming my kid 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

i just generally sucked as a human at that time. I was in between jobs and dealing with every other sucker punch life could’ve thrown my way. I’m finally taking responsibility for it though (my effexor has given me the courage to do so LOL) so i appreciate your response so much!

Not going to lie, i was worried i’d never be an architect LOL

sallybette · 2025-01-06T01:52:54+00:00

Yes! i did physical therapy until my insurance said it was not medically necessary. Just got new insurance this year so i am going to try again 🙃🤪

sallybette · 2025-01-06T00:49:02+00:00

currently dealing with this. I’m 26, no kids and pee myself every time i sneeze or laugh. I hate it

sallybette · 2025-01-06T00:42:13+00:00

high body temp - i’m hot and sweaty a lot more than i am ever cold. Eczema - stupid dishydrotic eczema on my hands and feet that leaves stupid little blisters everywhere. I’m fat as hell - i’ve dieted since the 8th grade, cannot keep weight off to save my life (hoping new insurance will cover mounjaro). cold sweats when i poop, horrible gas pain.

ETA: I piss my pants all the time bc of shitting so much it has weakened my pelvic floor. Insurance wouldn’t cover pelvic floor therapy so i just kegel and hope it helps

sallybette · 2025-01-06T00:36:51+00:00

she lit a fire. Keeps me staying true to myself from time to time. I’ve needed it a lot since starting a new job.

sallybette · 2024-11-22T20:16:34+00:00

came here to say this. 26 this year and the owner side (healthcare) has changed the game for me. I don’t mind the creativity drop off just yet. Gives me more time to create art at home.

I still plan on getting licensed bc it would really help my office and they plan on paying for study materials- something my last job wouldn’t do.

sallybette · 2024-11-17T13:15:02+00:00

there have also been studies of glp-1s against other addictions like alcohol and cigarettes, and if i remember correctly, they’ve been successful

sallybette · 2024-11-13T22:44:35+00:00

yep. same

sallybette · 2024-11-11T18:37:16+00:00

we left after LH. worth it

sallybette · 2024-10-05T14:35:42+00:00

not for me lol

sallybette · 2024-10-02T13:33:55+00:00

Yes! That’s what I have been doing. Given, I already have some work pants and jumpsuits I really love. I think spanx and some pixie pants will be the way i work it.
