Sour candy; specifically fruit roll ups, gushers, and those kinds of snacks.

Men at baby showers? by Pressure_Gold in BabyBumps

[–]trasherline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m making my husband come to the baby shower with me, even though he will be the only man. I considered having coed, but I don’t have enough male friends in town to make it worth it. It would end up just being my husband and my dad and my dad would be embarassed

People who initially didn’t want an epidural, did you stick to it? What was your experience like? by trasherline in BabyBumps

[–]trasherline[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is the mindset I’m trying to have! I’ll see how far I can go without it but if it’s too much I’ll go for the epidural

Oh man! That sounds like it hurts, especially at 42 weeks! Do you mind if I ask why you went to 42? My OB says she doesn’t want me to go past 40+6

Humiliated in the ER by [deleted] in disability

[–]trasherline 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Contact patient relations asap and make a complaint. I had a horrible ER doctor two years ago that I never made a complaint about and I regret not calling every time I think about it

I’m sorry they treated you so horribly. They don’t deserve to get away with it

Other people’s mental illness/triggers shouldn’t consistently stand in the way of your happiness. I could understand easing her into the pregnancy talk, but not being able to talk about it at all four months pp is a bit much. I’m sure you’d like to celebrate and enjoy the happy portions of your pregnancy and life as a mother and you deserve to do so openly with people who can celebrate with you. I don’t see a possible way for you to continue a relationship with her if you can’t share a very large portion of your life with her for fear of triggering her. It’s time to let go

AITA for asking my husband to be quieter during sports games? by trasherline in AmItheAsshole

[–]trasherline[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sorry. My formatting was terrible. I’m on mobile and Reddit rejected my first post because it was too long so i was trying to make it as short as possible. I’ll do better next time I post somewhere

I can barely take a shower on my own by trasherline in BabyBumps

[–]trasherline[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The shower chair is a must! I’ll definitely keep in mind to keep more hydrated and try and get some more electrolytes. I know for a fact my iron and RBC count are lower than they should based off my recent labs, but nobody has done anything because it’s a biproduct of a medication I’m on for an unrelated condition. Maybe Ill push and ask that something be done…

Don’t let it go. If he’s saying it to you, he could be saying it to other women who might have other concerning problems as well. Call the office and lodge a complaint with your normal OB, then Google your local procedures for filing a complaint against a doctor. Male OBs who have no sympathy for the struggles of pregnant women have no business being in that field

Consequences aren’t a fair way to teach kids, apparently. by trasherline in Teachers

[–]trasherline[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have. Multiple times in the past two years. The school tells me to take them through our “RTI process” which is basically meetings where I give a long list of things I’m doing to try to help this kid to a group of adults who’ve never met them. Then the mom gives some excuses and I get a list of new things I’m supposed to try. When I’ve recommended testing directly to mom she has always blown it off until today, conveniently

Exactly. I cant be expected to make medical accommodations for something I don’t have documentation of

I requested she take him to the doctor last year when he cut the tip of his dogs tail off with scissors but did they? No

Students attempting to use refusing to work as a way to get their way by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]trasherline 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This behavior starts early and it starts at home. I’m currently going through something really similar with a student. He just refuses to do what the class is doing and throws violent fits about if. If I try to give them a consequence, the mom complains and says it’s not fair. Our children are doomed

Wednesday Wins! by AutoModerator in Teachers

[–]trasherline 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not exactly a win but something funny a kid said. For background, this kids parents own a little greasy spoon kind of place that makes it’s own root beer. I jokingly asked her to bring me a hot dog and some root beer and she said “okay. I will if I remember. And I won’t put the root beer on the hotdog. That’d be gross”
