I’m in my third trimester, and I don’t FEEL pregnant. I just feel fat. Anyone else have similar experience? I’m worried I’ll get to a point where baby will come soon, and it won’t feel like he’s mine because I never felt pregnant.

I want to avail contingency loan of 50k, but my reason for loan is not listed and neither I can provide proof for why I need loan.

Actually I need loan for my parent. Can any one provide valid reason and regarding documentation that my loan would be approved?

Anyone else’s brain feel dazed and useless? Kids are a factor but even when I get time, I can’t focus. Tried exercise, outdoors, caffeine, vitamins, sleep, prescribed meds, etc.

I know some firms offer fitness/health stipends to cover expenses of gym memberships, equipment, etc. what do the different firms offer?

Anyone done walk up COVID testing at Tufts Med? If so, what day/time did you go and how long was the wait?

Thanks to everyone who joined today #AskACareerCoach chat on Managing Anxiety at Work! If you're struggling with anxiety at work and want some help, please DM me! I'm happy to share some tips and advice. Let's go back and forth a bit and get you moving forward.

How do you think climate change will impact insurance coverage in the future?

I’m in a rather peculiar situation. I have been in the HR field going on 4 years, I have over 11 years of management experience, I got my PHR last year and I recently graduated with my MBA with a concentration in HR this month. I am ready for a more challenging role. However, there doesn’t seem to be much available at my current company. However, I am going on 5 months pregnant with the expectation of being out in October. I feel like once I mentioned my pregnancy I was in a holding pattern.

Any advice on handling severe depression and anxiety when going through close to 24/7 work? Our deployment is going to span close to 2 months and I have a lot of overnights and long hours coming up.

Has anyone talked to a therapist or professional about being unemployed? At this point I feel like it's making me depressed. Are there other unemployment support groups out there?

What are some good gyms in the city? I like to do a mix of cardio and strength, a pool would be nice but not a must.

I'm really excited. I basically couldn't walk for like a week after I had COVID. Even just laying down hurt. It was like merely existing was excruciating (reminded me of the last 8 weeks or so of pregnancy honestly).

I told myself I couldn't go back to the office until I could be on my feet for several minutes (for meetings, bathroom trips, etc.). Yesterday was my first day back in the office. It was horribly painful. But today is Day 2, and I'm doing OK!!! I'm so excited!

What is the trick to developing a new habit? I had to change up my nighttime routine back in may and I still hate it/have to force myself to do all the steps so I don't deal with the negative results for a week.

Needless to say, that makes me feel like crap about trying to get back to daily workouts.

Experience with SSRIs? My doc prescribed one to me for anxiety (especially because I have physical anxiety symptoms I can’t seem to kick, like jaw pain, stomach issues, etc).

Soo done with work today. Just wonna go to the gym and hurt and clear my head :(

Are there any natural supplements you swear by? Turmeric, wheat grass, grape seed extract, chlorophyll, etc? Gimme your best recommendations!

Stressing about my gestational diabetes test Tuesday. I have a lot of risk factors and have been feeling horrible lately after feeling not so bad for the last 2 months :/

Received PGT results today and am thrilled we do have normal embryos! So over the moon, I know we have a journey to go but celebrating this milestone! Sending all the positive wishes to all of you as well!

Remember being a kid in NY and this would be the biggest topic of debate. Where do you stand?

Yankees 👎 Mets 👍 Giants 👍 Jets 👎

What's your age and net worth (including crypto)?

Bitcoin $12,994 🙌

Considering leaving hectic agency to an in house creative team at a relatively unknown tech startup. I’ll get a significant raise and a better work environment but still on the fence. Thoughts?

Posted in another bowl but looking for more inputs...how long should I work in Big Law before exiting? Currently at a V10 firm, NYC office

Anyone volunteering with the upcoming CFE exam this week?

What’s the appropriate pay for a Video Prodcuer/ editor (for web) in London? I think I’m being underpaid. I have a BA(Hons) in Film & TV and a MA in Television Journalism. I’ve been working at the same company for 4 years and was promoted 3 years ago. I was told to ‘prove myself’ when I asked about the compensation, then the pandemic put a stop to any raises. I asked again a bit more than a year ago and they gave me a little bump because some left. I’m currently at £31k. The company keeps hiring

Wondering what the salary is for this position throughout different firms. Anyone willing to share?

Anyone have ideas for jobs that are a mix between administration and clinical work? I went to school for community health and have a lot of manager/patient coordinator experience under my belt, but I'm also a volunteer EMT and would like to start using those skills in my next job that I'm searching for.

Most titles I've found interesting are along the "medical assistants" role, but don't fit the bill cause I don't have an MA license

Looking at moving to SF soon. Any recommendations on what neighborhoods to look at? Office would be close to Salesforce tower, so something with easy commute to there would be great. Single late twenties male if that matters. I am interested in areas that are generally not dead and where I can meet people. Thank you.

My kids got the one-paragraph responses down pack. We use C-E-R like our ELA and Science counter-parts. Can anyone share a resource for teaching extended responses? Need a structure similar to CER to teach 3 paragraph responses to social studies document based questions. (Been trying to find one for 8years)

Who’s working this Sunday?

Aloha instead of Halloween? We rarely get this many opportunities for free alcohol + snacks, so wondering if Dana is bait and switching us...

What is everyone’s experience working in house at a F500 company? Compensation, work/life balance, autonomy, starting remotely during pandemic? Thanks!

I have managerial round tomorrow. For 1-3 years of experience what kind of questions I can expect in the managerial round?
Can someone please help and guide me?

Single moms with babies (and no family around to help out): how much do you spend on childcare per month?

Saw a beautiful poster at work today saying Never save your password in keypasses 😂 Bring on the password123

Where can I get a nice dress for my baby shower? Looked at Macys maternity dresses and I don’t really fancy any of them. TIA.

Hello! I am not happy with my current job position. I also just found out that we are pregnant and I feel stuck. My hope would be to move into a remote position but am afraid of the change as well as any annoyance about taking maternity leave from a new manager/ team. Has anyone ever changed jobs while pregnant? Was the team at your new job resentful that you had to take maternity leave so quickly after starting?

Any tiny space dwellers out there? I live in a 490 sqft stand alone home. We’re a block from the beach. I’ve been nesting like crazy (getting rid of stuff, ensuring stuff is space saving/multipurpose). We have one bedroom. Anyone else have similar tales to tell? Or am I the only 🤪 one?

Thinking about getting an Uppababy Vista. Is it worth it? It’s so expensive. Also thinking about getting a secondhand one. I saw so many secondhand ones from 2015. Is it too old? Thanks!

Any mommy groups in South FL? Do any professionals even work in South FL?

I am driving both me and my husband crazy. We both work from home in a 4 bedroom home pretty decent size. My husband wants to do daycare and id prefer a nanny. Thankfully money isn’t the the concern, it’s more he thinks we’ll be distracted and I am nervous about anti-vax people and rise of polio and whooping cough. We went to a daycare we liked but they did they allowed religious exceptions which makes me uncomfortable. Would love to get feedback.

My “possibly toxic” trait is I don’t want to be helped. We bought our house with my husband and never got a cent from anyone and we furnished it ourselves. Now I’m pregnant i don’t really want gifts. We have already bought 70% for our baby and i just don’t want gifts although fam and friends are keen to gift. Am i petty?

Mom of two here (21 month old and 5 month old) who is starting to consider having a third. I am in my late 30’s and my doctor just recommended I start trying at 6 months postpartum. I am thinking I want to start closer to 8-10 months postpartum but have no idea what to expect with a third. Is anyone in a similar situation? Moms or Dads of two, do you ever look back and wish you had tried for three? Moms or Dads of three, how was the transition from two to three and how much did life change?

I had an amniocentesis performed at 16 weeks and found out today (19.5 weeks) that the chromosome analysis and microarray to test for microdeletions came back normal. Had they not come back normal, I would have aborted. I am distraught that others will not have this choice now that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade.

Just curious:

What food do you miss in pregnancy that you either cannot eat right now due to restrictions or due to your nausea?

LA moms to be: Any physical stores specifically in LA or SoCal that I could see items up-close and personal? Big box stores or boutiques are both welcomed. 🌴 (I already got BuyBuy, Target, etc)

Had the craziest experience today at 1st ultrasound. Measured 6w5d (what I should be based on FET) but sonographer told me HR was 87 (low). I was hysterical (had a previous MMC after an initial low HR) and doctor came in and rescanned and said everything looked perfect and HR was 119 BPM! I am trying so hard to take comfort in the second scan but this is so stressful. Please send positive vibes my way 😭😭

Going on maternity leave in a few months and my manager just gave me a new long term assignment. I want to put my best foot forward and help out but I am also exhausted. What to do? I just want to nest in peace.

Doulas and midwives are not covered by my insurance plan. Is that usually the case? Can anyone share how much on average they spent on doula and/or midwife care?

34 weeks. Starts being sleepy at 3pm. Thank god I work from home.

What all do you take for vitamins? I’m on a prenatal and my doc said nothing else is necessary but curious if others have heard different.

Here 28 weeks pregnant and tired of hearing you would need to do this for better lactation, you would have sleepless nights. Can a new mother not figure out on her own with the right scientific knowledge ? Is it important to go by what your parents , in-laws or known ones tell you ?
