Hoi, vandaag was mijn 3e werkdag als kassamedewerker. Terugdenkend denk ik dat ik waarschijnlijk enkele fouten heb gemaakt die niet opgevalllen zijn met te weinig geld vragen, bijvoorbeeld een euro of 20 cent te weinig, en 1 keer zelfs dat ik volgens mij een kaasuienbrood teveel had aangeslagen.

Naast dat dat laatste vervelend is voor de klant, hoe erg is dit? Is dit gewoon normaal aan het begin of is het echt een probleem?

This is probably a silly question, but I just got this subreddit on my feed and it got me both intrigued and confused. I thought that I would probably get far better and more accurate information from you guys than from trying to figure it all out on my own, so I decided to ask it here.

If you have the time or energy, I would really appreciate it! Thank you in advance :))

He used One Wish Willow to get Nikki. He should have used One Wish Nikki instead.

Unfortunately dentistry doesnt do "meeloopdagen" anymore and although the open days are helpful, its mostly information you can find on the website.

Because of this I was curious if anyone here has or is studying dentistry and would wanna share their experience. How is the workload? The stress? What has your experience been like?

Thanks in advance!

I was gonna be sedated while getting the abortion and so I decided to kill 2 birds with 1 stone and also get the mirena put in at the same time :)

I had tried posting this yesterday, soon after the procedure on r/TwoXChromosomes, but it is still waiting to be approved and my boyfriend recommended I post here (he read up a lot here prior to the procedure, so thank you to everyone who has taken the time and effort to help others by posting here :)).

Anyway if you're reading this, either maybe you are looking for options, or maybe you have actually been in my shoes in the past (or maybe you're just curious). I wanted to share my experience to hopefully help anyone who might be in similiar shoes as I was few weeks ago (deciding what to do with my pregnancy), especially since there's so much freaking misinformation.

Please remember that if you are in a similiar situation as mine, there is no wrong or right choice. There are just choices and you should try to make one that feels best for you in that moment of time. Whatever you feel after is okay. For some people it can be devastating while others feel relief/apathy. However you handle any point of it is okay.

Your body, your choice and your reaction.

---------------------------------------

So first the back-info: I had a surgical abortion done at 8 weeks and also opted to immediately have a Mirena put in. I have PMDD. I also did it while sedated. My boyfriend was there to support me the whole way.

Echo

I personally decided to look at the echo. This is something you know best if you want to or not, but for me, it reallly helped in conceptualizing that this wasn't a person (according to my definition of one) and how small it really was. When I saw the echo I called it a "ghost sighting", because it kinda looked like that

The procedure

If you have the opportunity to do it while under, I highly recommend it. What happened was I took painkillers and got something that would soften my cervix. I then had to wait 45 mins to an hour in a resting room and then went to the "operation room", where the operators were 3 women (which I am very grateful about). They first gave me something to calm me down, and then gave me the sedative. I dont remember going to sleep, I just remember waking up and it was done. Then they gave me cookies and tea (highlight bc I hadnt been able to eat anything for hours before). Later at home I had to take anti-biotics.

According to my boyfriend the first 30 mins after I was funny af because I was pretty out of it. My favorite convo with him was:

>Me: there were 3 people. The nurse, doctor and anethesiologist.

>Bf: and then 3 people?

>Me: Noo. they were the 3 people... Working personel are people too.

>Bf: Oh right, ofcourse, im sorry

>Me: thats bad, thats capitalisticism

>Bf: ofcourse, thank you

>Me: you're welcome

I also pointed at his shirt filled with motorcycles and said car and then went "..wait thats not right"

Home

For going back home, I had to choose between using public transport or asking my dad to pick me up with car. In the end I chose for my dad to pick me up. If it is possible to be picked up by a vehicle, I would recommend it. It is possible to go with public transport (not alone, if you get sedation!!), but you should also give yourself some grace.

Also dont feel pressured to tell anyone, even if that person is picking you up or whatever. At first I hadnt told both my parents, but just before the appointment I decided to tell my mom, not because I felt I had to, but because it felt right then. My dad still has no clue. I told him I am just getting a spiral in, but you could use a lot of reasons.

Symptoms (yesterday)

Anyway symptoms right now, I have a bit of cramping, it hurts a bit and there's some blood. But for me, its not that bad. it also ebs and flows a bit. I had the procedure done 8 hours ago and already I dont really need painkiller (I will still probably take it later, but yea, the pain for me isnt that bad). I also dont have a heating thing on rn but will probably put it on in a bit. For me it feels like a good "bad period day", if that makes sense. Still do have painkiller and heating stuff at home in case you need it+for just after.

However this does not mean you should just go and try to tackle your responsibilities as normal. REST!!! What you went through is not bad to handle, but it still is a medical procedure and something intensive for your body.! You deserve rest and your body deserves rest. All I have done today is sit and sometimes walk around a bit.

Also do check your temperature frequently. You can have a bit of fever, mine is 37.5 right now.

Mirena

The Mirena, oh my god it has made me absolutely ravenous today. I am hungry all the time right now. I keep eating. Of course everyone has different symptoms, but consider getting high volume foods like veggies, popcorn, ricecrackers, fruit etc beforehand and maybe also high calorie foods, in case you get the opposite symptom and cant eat anything.

Also because I got Mirena I have to get an appointment in 3 weeks to get checked that it is sitting correctly, so be aware of that.

And getting it while I was under sedation is 100% the best thing ever!!! I hate that its not an easily accessible method, but if you have the option, take it!!

Emotions

Emotionally, i will admit, I didnt feel anything. I didnt see it as a person based on my own criteria of personhood and because of that it felt as emotionally devastating as having a period, almost (+ the internalized unfounded shame brought on by societal conditioning).

Of course this can change and if it does, I will leave space for it. But I want to mention this, because for me it felt bad/wrong to not feel bad. I just want to tell you, again, whether you feel like this is horrible or whether this feels like nothing, both is okay. Everyone handles and reacts differently to this.

Realistic Depiction

Also btw this is something my nurse showed me. I cant put a picture of link down, but it was a picture on myanetwork .org "The Issue of Tissue" which shows the tissue and also gives some information.

It showed what it actually looks like in weeks 6-9 and it really did help so much. A lot of media shows it as a small baby. It does NOT look like that at all. It kinda looks like moldy cotton, though week 8 is also giving ghost vibes lowkey

I will try to make an update later today to keep people an idea of how the recovery can look for longer time and in more detail. Feel free to ask any questions, I cant promise I am able to answer them all but I will try :)

I have recently realized this weird thing where I can not burp, but I can sort of let some air escape as breaths almost.

They're prsttt silent, making a phh/pff sound, and they cause me to jump a bit like with the hiccups. Sometimes if its rlly powerful it can push some bile up.

After everything I eat I often have to do this for a while. It doesnt completely help but makes it less bad

Does anyone else have this? Does this mean I cant have noburp syndrome? I cant rlly burp and barely vomit my whole life.

I feel like the show has already written the perfect set up for it. Sure, it was all likely written to be comical, but her never being able to rest, never being good enough and being busy all the time are the perfect recipe for a burnout.

And I think it would work well to make a lot of the haters sympathise more with Bailey and give purpose to the way she's written besides "she is the coolest person ever with practically zero flaws and married to Nolan". It would make one of her biggest traits that's seen as a plus actually be shown as her weakness.

I would like to see Nolan and Bailey try to handle it, Bailey have to come to terms with it and learn how to let herself exist without needing to prove her worth every second. She can still be a badass, but it would allow her to also be a human.

Currently my rats are 4 months old (boys), we got them 2 months ago.

I spent as much time as I can with them. At least an hour a day, often more to 2/3 hours (or 4/5) in the playpen with them and I am a lot of the time in the same room as them. At night we give them food to scavenge but throughout the day I handfeed them to build a good bond (im home pretty much all the time and if im not we do scavenge feed them instead).

Recently one of the rats had escaped and so for 2 days we didnt take the others out of the cage (we wanted to leave the playpen open in hopes the missing rat would turn himself in for love of his family).

I thought we had made some good progress with the rats and they trusted/liked me, 2 of them would let me pick them up (granted I had food) . But the day after the missing rat was captured, we had to bring all the rats with us because of the heatwave.

And it was as if they had never known me. They were scared to grab food out of my hand, or to let me pick them up (even though I have been training them on it). They would run to the corner and try to stay away from me. And if we got them into the carrier, they spent every second escaping (even if I put babyfood in there, peas and toys). In the end it took like 1.5/2 hours to get them, and it got really close to us having to potentially leave them as we had already passed the time we could leave without risking getting sick and it was getting close to the hottest moment.

And I just felt so.. defeated. It felt like all hours I have put in playing with them, training them, giving them food.. was for nothing.

They dont want to be petted. They dont like being in the hoodie. They dont want to play with me (or dont understand). One of them is scared to even really let me touch him at all or have my hand close to him and everytime I think I make progress he suddenly reverts back. If I try to take them on my shoulder to walk around, they try to get off.

And I thought that was fine with the idea that we are building a bond now, we've only had them for so little time, they are just young still and energetic, but after seeing how quickly the progress reverted, how quickly it felt like I became a stranger to them after 2 days of no playpen time.. it just feels like all that effort is for nothing, that I'm not building any bond at all.

Maybe I have been doing it all wrong? Been putting too much focus on getting them used to handleability that it eroded the trust and now there's nothing? Maybe im just not cut out to be a rat parent. Idk I just feel so defeated, like all my effort has been valiant.

We got the rats after the owners had been gone for 5-7 days on a trip (as in the exact day they came back), and I also notice I keep wondering, if maybe that is why they are the way they are, since they werent handled in those days, and if we had just waited a couple more days, maybe they would have been alright?

Sorry to ask this here, but I want to go prepared to my GP with possible steps to take as he has been a bit dismissive, or just things I could do at home.

I have been getting sick every 2 weeks to every month the past year. It is most of the time sore throat, headache/sluggish and feverish and sometimes stuffy nose.

I have asthma and likely chronic sinusitis. I used to get sick quite often, but that was like 4/5x time a year, now its been like 15x times this year. According to my mom I did used to get sick a lot when I was young, till I was like 8.

I have done a blood test and that came out normal.

And.. I just dont know what to do anymore. I dont want to overexaggerate but I am starting to lose my mind a bit.

Any tips of what to check? Or things I could do? Thanks in advance!
