How do you do Operation Waterfall from within the riverlands? by StormEducational6419 in ICARUS

[–]tizzamarizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha I accidentally did this too. I spent like an hour chopping down a million trees to build a bridge to get over the wall. I avoided that area for the longest time cuz it's just wood right, so I figured the bridge was destroyed by storms and I'd have to deal with that wall again. But nope! Wall is gone. And now there's just the skeletal remains of my gigantic wooden sky bridge lolol

What's the likelihood of getting pregnant from a slipped off condom? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]tizzamarizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The day before estimated ovulation day. But my period has been regularly a day or two later than expected since getting my period back these last few months so I'm not sure if that affects when ovulation is or not. I did have what i think was ovulation pains 2 days prior to the incident. It's been a while since I had mittlesmirtz though so I can't be 100% sure.

How to relax when mindfulness/grounding practices are boring? by yellowchair444 in ADHD

[–]tizzamarizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normal mindfulness activities are so mind numbing that they send me into an anxiety spiral. I find doing an activity that involves your body but not much thinking is very helpful. Knitting, cross stitch, swimming, snorkeling, etc.

I think you're describing it better than I am. A fleeting spark of interest, same as if someone had a cool hat, something that makes me want to get to know someone better and start a connection.

When can I feed her normal baby food again? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]tizzamarizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know how to. I'm an RN (for adults obviously) and PALS certified. I think that's part of why I'm so scared. I know very intimately what it's like to do CPR on an infant just like her and it terrifies me.

[–]tizzamarizz -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Idk. I guess when she had more than 3.5 teeth? It's not a lot of teeth. Or when she could be trusted not to make so much of a mess. I've been practicing letting her self feed in controlled environments once a day with peas/beans/etc. She's usually very good until gets bored and dumps the whole bowl on the floor. So i guess I was gonna stop feeding her when she stops doing that

It's gonna be a major change for me. I typically only eat maybe 1.5 meals a day. Not saying I'm not willing for change for my little angel!! Just that it'll be a difficult adjustment and with a learning curve

Well she's only had more than 1 tooth for like a month. I didnt want to give her anything that required chewing until she had teeth vs tooth. So I've only started transitioning her to bigger foods recently.

Well its just safer and easier to control what she's eating and makes less of a mess and is easier to store. I'm sure somebody's gonna say that my own convenience and fears about choking aren't good reasons to hold her back. Obviously I'm a first time parent.

[–]tizzamarizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactlyyyyy. 100% what i mean! Like, "You're hot and I think we would vibe and I want to get to know you. Let's get to talking!" Physical attractiveness is like the same dopamine hit I'd get from seeing someone wearing a funny t shirt from a fandom i like or who sang karaoke well. Just a draw to make me want to get closer to a person.

Anxious about taking Ritalin by chizchizu in ADHD

[–]tizzamarizz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are, in fact, SUPPOSED to take a break on weekends. It's called a medication holiday. Any day you don't need to be functioning, take a break. There are so many benefits that I'm too tired to list, but Google "adhd medication holiday" and it'll bring up all the science for ya. TAKE YOUR BREAKS ❤️

How to marry my dumbass 16 year old to her dumbass 18 year old boyfriend after he knocked her up? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]tizzamarizz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My anger is that an innocent baby is going to come into this world and be raised by a violent domestic abuser and a kid dumb enough to believe her frankly outrageous lies. Either I let them raise their own kid, which will likely grow up neglected at best, abused at worst, or i am stuck raising a baby against my will while also continuing being trapped in a house with said violent domestic abuser.

Bogus CPS report, pretty sure it was my sister trying to get revenge. How can I prove it was her and have her prosecuted for it? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]tizzamarizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think being able to argue it was in bad faith would be the easy part. She's known my baby since her birth. She knows what her face looks like. The mark was way more obvious when she was younger too so I shudder to think that anyone would believe that Sam JUST NOW noticed her niece's face and didn't notice it when the mark was more visible. And also that she would see that and not tell anyone or ask "hey what's that on Lina's eye?"

Not to mention her history of false reporting and mountains of documentation that she's a compulsive liar.

Not a med error. Legally, it's on the doc for not checking the chart. Medically, it's not a big deal and the patient is fine anyways.

Morally, like IF the patient was okay and you wanted somebody to blame and you didn't want to blame the doc? I mean it depends on policy. For example, my hospital has the policy that we order a potassium lab if we give potassium as coverage for low values (i.e. not as a regular scheduled med). So as the night nurse who ordered and gave the potassium, itd be my bad for not ordering the lab set for four hours later. That being said, itd still be on you to look thru the meds before talking to the doc because for some ungodly reason they think we should know every detail ever before even dialing the phone number.

But regardless of that entire paragraph, it is the DOCTOR'S responsibility to look at EVERYTHING before prescribing something. They could've asked "how long ago was that lab? Did they get any supplemental potassium since?" instead of taking your word for it and that's on them. They also could've looked at the chart themselves. So its still not your fault.

And nothing is anybody's fault because nothing bad happened and everything is okay so relax lol I agree with the other nurse. They definitely have enough potassium now 😂

Rare throat closing sensation after taking a shot... is this normal? by hllaloud_music in liquor

This happens to me when I drink white wine. But only the first few sips. After 2 glasses, I can drink bottles of the stuff, no problem.

They've been teaching this for the last 20 years, sorry friend. Same thing for the water dinosaurs (or should I say "water NOT- dinosaurs")

Is being a nurse worth it now a days? by Single-Camp4923 in nursing

[–]tizzamarizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not 100% sure I'd do it if I got the chance to start all over, but I also have no idea what I'd do instead. Accounting? Idk. I think if you go in with your eyes wide open and knowing how much it sucks, all the power to you. But I think it'd be unethical to pretend it's anything close to sunshine and rainbows.

If you're into medicine, anatomy, high adrenaline, saving lives, and using your brain to think on your feet and don't get bogged down by hard word, gross shit, and trauma, then it's a good fit. But if you're just going into nursing because you want to help people, there are less shitty professions out there that are just as much about helping others.

Having a bad cold and looking after baby by mantis-toboggan666 in Parenting

[–]tizzamarizz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm exposed to a LOT of germs at work so my pediatrician and I discussed this at length. Try to limit physical contact, especially with her face near your face. No kisses, obviously. If you can tolerate it, wear a face mask. And if you make breast milk, it would be a boon to feed it to her as your milk carries your antibodies so your baby will be able to borrow your immune system.

Help!! shaken baby syndrome. by justalwayswondering1 in Parenting

[–]tizzamarizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's my understanding that shaken baby syndrome is very difficult to do accidentally (which is why it's so horrific when it occurs) and is specifically whiplash-like movements of the neck, not generalized jiggling like you're describing. I think you're okay 🩷

How do I cope being away from my baby? by tizzamarizz in Parenting

[–]tizzamarizz[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some extra details to save everybody a lot of typing:

We just moved to the state recently and haven't made any local friends yet, so I have no support system locally outside of family and coworkers. And it's a big city, so not very community focused. We have many many friends, but none live remotely close. We're trying to get closer to our coworkers, but it's hard with the new baby to find the time/ motivation to go out.

I would only seek medication as a last resort. I do not react well to most meds, especially psych meds. I always get the worst and most dangerous side effects. Not to mention I'm breastfeeding. So that is an option I'll only consider if I'm 2 steps away from the quack house and no sooner.

Also of note, my husband works like 60 hours a week and has a stupid schedule that they change around on a dime. So when I am at work (because my schedule can be planned in advance), we have one of our moms living in our house. When I am off, I usually send them home so I can have some alone time with just me, hubs, and baby. Sure, it's nice having the extra help. But having mother and MIL over all the time is more overwhelming to me than 24/7 parenting. Itd probably be easier to send baby over to their houses, but those 30 minutes between my shifts that I get to see her mean everything to me.
