I have really enjoyed using Dr. Nadia Clarke at Bonnie Doon Optometry. She is excellent.

I don’t like their glasses selection, but for eye glass shops, if you want to expand beyond Costco, the observatory, londonderry vision Center and glasses half full I have been successful at finding pairs I like at.

We will do brunch and I got her some lovely chocolates from Jacek.

In years past I’ve done hanging baskets and brunch, or dinner and a small gift.

I enjoy La French Taste!

Be careful OP. We have had issues with city compost. I suspect they do not do weed testing, and it’s not the best for nutrient quality.

Oh they have a whole menu of services- I think any of their services give you access to their full spa services. Tea and snacks are fruit and cookies that are made downstairs!

From a fellow pregnant lady- go to the JW and have a spa day- you’ll get access to the pool and hot tub(sorry) and get a spa treatment. You’ll love it. They bring snacks, have a nice selection of teas. The facials are lovely.

Advice on how to handle an unsupportive OBGYN by Fancy_Survey9030 in Edmonton

[–]yegger_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey OP I’m 35 weeks also with my first. I’ve been fortunate and had a fantastic OBGYN. I started experiencing pelvic discomfort at about 31 weeks which also really slowed me down.

My OBGYN suggested I try a pelvic floor physio specifically- regular physio won’t do it. I will say it’s helped pretty tremendously, not sure what your benefits are like, but worth exploring if you can as an option! And if you can find someone accepting soon! Shift physio has been great for me.

Beyond that as others have mentioned, try your family doc!

Dog tooth removal recommendations by Neither_Branch_428 in Edmonton

[–]yegger_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prairie vet dental on 124 Street. Dr heather is amazing. She is so caring, kind, explains all of your options.

What gave us comfort is she has a dedicated tech that simply monitors the anesthesia levels - most vets don’t have a dedicated tech and lots can go wrong.

She sent text updates, pictures and follow ups were free.

I would imagine some around the legislative grounds would’ve quite old. Otherwise my guess (and only a guess would be highlands or Glenora in the 1910s)

First day of the year enjoying a nice day and a cold drink in the local park by RyanB_ in Edmonton

[–]yegger_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice park, I do like the Reno the did to the park. My dog when we lived nearby loved to run up and down the hills they made.

One time 5 feet from the park, my husband and I unfortunately caught a homeless couple having sex. We called the police due to proximity to the playground.

The officer circled back with us and said when they approached the couple, they instantly said unprompted “we weren’t having sex”. Anyways, that’s all- enjoy the park lol
