Do you guys remember doing character and fitness? I didn't have any issues with it but apparently the bar association can contact your landlord?

I remember questioning how they could even obtain some of the stuff they are asking for if you were not forthcoming. For instance, how would they know if you've been civilly sued if that's not always public information or how would they know if you are current on your taxes?

My toddler is sick and at home with me. My dog just got out of unexpected emergency jaw surgery. I'm also sick, and have been consistently sick for about four weeks (just one cold after another). I'm on edge today, ready to yell even at my cat for annoying me. What time is an acceptable time to break out the Jameson?

I’ve been helping couples navigate the challenges of infertility for over 20 years now. Recently, I’ve noticed more couples feeling apprehensive to continue treatment because they are worried about potential repercussions if they miscarry during the IVF process. Honestly, I’m not sure how to reassure them because I also feel afraid, but I just want to continue supporting these wonderful couples & families. I would be heartbroken if they ended up suffering more because of their treatments. I’m just feeling so conflicted & sad today after meeting with a couple who decided to postpone treatment.

Anyone took a leave of absence, or knows anyone who did, to try to conceive? What was that like?

Relapsed and I start a new job in a week. I need to get it together before then. I hateee myself a lot rn. Ugh. Hopefully I’ll come down and sleep tomorrow and be okay for the last week and when I start the new job. Just had to vent I guess. Thanks for listening and hope everyone is doing well and staying safe during these times!

What should the reaction be if the vaccines end up only being reasonably effective. Say we end up with a going forward rate of 100,000 dead per year. Or 50,000. Is there a point at which you say you were willing to take the risk and move back to a normal life (gatherings, restaurants, travel, etc.)? Recognizing they lockdowns can temporarily reduce counts, but not eliminate the disease.

December feels like a country song. Two dogs died on the 1st. A hard rain exposed latent roof damage and collapsed ceiling in two rooms. Stove, fridge and water heater all went out on the same day last week. Yesterday my spouse said they needed a break from the chaos through the holidays and left. Today a positive covid test. And 7 deals trying to close before year end requiring my full attention so none of the aforementioned can get any attention.

Associates, don’t let this become you.

My anxiety has been out of control lately. Accepted a new job offer and have been waiting on background checks/drug screens to clear and it’s taking a while to complete.

Scenario: my state has a 3 yr statutory rape law, this case involves 3 yrs 4 month bf and gf. It’s never been alleged, nor based on the facts is it alleged to be non-consensual or coercive. The parents of the victims aren’t pushing for it either. I’m a new ADA, and shadowing, so I need some advice on alternatives to the strict statutory punishment. I was encouraged by another bowl to challenge the system and my DA has also encouraged it as well, but does anyone have advice?

I’m advanced age and respond well to ivf medications but don’t have good quality eggs . Thinking of going in with a lower dosage stims and increasing upward and maybe longer stim cycle. Has anyone tried this strategy ?

Sharing my story: I carry an abnormal gene in which me and my wife's first child was affected. We decided with our second child to use IVF. We started our journey in January 2021 and my wife went through 4 IVF cycles using my sperm in a 9 month span (her choice). We decided after the 4th round failed to go a different route and use sperm donation to rid us of the gene. During 2022, she went through 4 rounds of IUI and finally got one that stuck. She is now 14 weeks pregnant and due in April 😊

How many rounds of egg retrieval did you go through to get a good embryo? I just had 4 sent to genetics and none of them were genetically normal. I had no problem getting pregnant with my first, conceived him naturally in two tries. I just had a myomectomy on Weds and got the genetics report on Fri so I’m a little on the struggle bus rn. I’m 39 and am worried I’m doomed.

How did y’all decide which doc/fertility clinic to go with? It’s so overwhelming. I had a consult with one my friends sister used and started the process but frustrated with them a bit (feel rushed). I’m in LA/Thousand Oaks. Recs appreciated too.

Are there any studies on the outcomes of IVF babies ? We heard from our doctor that they pick the best eggs and the best sperms then implant the blastocysts that show the best growth - I was curious if those advantages continue on after birth.
