I had some ingrown hairs! And a gnarly hemorrhoid lol

Which ‘down there’ are we talkin?
Hemorrhoids are suuuper common after birth.

I felt some bumps on my last day in the hospital. Turns out I had a fungal infection - they think form the sanitizing stuff they used for my c section + just the general what/moisture of recovery. Definitely call and get it checked out. The prescribed cream cleared it up fast

I also had numbness in my hands for awhile, which apparently is common. It’s now subsided around 7 weeks PP

Clawback clause in current contract: been in role for over 2 yrs, it was an internal move that required relocation. Relocation was approved shortly after (over 2 yrs ago) but covid meant the actual move and start of my contract with new subsidiary was delayed, I was paid by the previous subsidiary meanwhile. I got small relocation package. Would internal move be subject to a buy-out/clawback clause if I leave now and if yes, is it time in role or time under new contract? Any experience? Thanks!

Let’s talk speed reading. I’m a slow reader and listened to a podcast recently on speed reading. I’m intrigued. Who here speed reads? How did you learn those skills, and what types of documents do you speed read in practice? I do mostly litigation and am thinking that speed reading would help with research but maybe not things like doc review where you need to review for both responsiveness and privilege.

Hi everyone,
So I had my NIPT and NT scans last week and I’ve been getting pieces of the results back from my doctor in the patient portal. All seems okay but I’m a bit confused. Does anyone know if FirstScreen is the same thing as NIPT? I was under the impression that NIPT was in 90th percent of certainty for Down syndrome but the result we got, labeled FirstScreen indicate 83% certainty so I’m confused if there are more results coming? I messaged the doctor but haven’t heard back yet.

Can’t predict the future but family is already talking about trips and I want to set expectations and do what is best for baby. TIA!!
