This bowl rocks! I posted about potty training challenges and took the advice to get a pee alarm for my 5-year old son. We’re three weeks in and dry nights are becoming the new norm! Thanks everyone!

On my honeymoon and already self conscious of gaining a little weight from indulging in cocktails and treats. How do not punish myself but also not make excuses for myself? Will losing this weight be as simple as cutting out the excess when I get home? Sigh

Best age to freeze my eggs? I’m 30. Is it too early?

I just got a really great offer, only downside is the eligibility for maternity leave is after 12 months of employment. We got a faint positive today but have had so many chemical pregnancies over the past year that I am not confident it will stick this time BUT I am on aspirin and progesterone for this try … so it could.. I want to see if I could negotiate being eligible earlier but I also don’t want them to think I’m pregnant when I’m not actually… How would you approach the conversation?

Has anyone been to the UK lately from the US? What are the Covid requirements / restrictions? Thank you!

Have you ever taken a job you know you will hate because you needed the money right away? I have a family to take care of. I don't want to be plowing through our savings for selfish reasons like my mindframe at work, but I don't want to make our lives worse by being miserable. It's a matter of really ruining some of our financial future if we don't get money soon.

For those who have been working hard to eat well and exercise during the pandemic, how is everyone doing?

What's your favorite thing about being a physician? With all the stress and heavy stuff we deal with, it's nice to reflect on the positives sometimes...

I peed in the ocean twice today at the beach 🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫

Trump closed China👍🏽
- And left the UK open
- And called the virus a hoax
- And refused to get enough ppe and ventilators
- And refused to give equipment to Dem govs
- And refused to promote wearing masks
- And failed to shut down infected cities
- And lied about possible cures
- And spent countless days golfing
- And tweeting
- And worrying about every other issue than the one that has killed 130,000 Americans and counting

But go on, keep defending his inactions

So really the only exercise I can tolerate is boxing, and those exercises around it. Any thoughts on replicating what I can find at my local boxing gym while on the road?

Thoughts on CVS Health?

Starting second trimester, has anyone had really bad upper back pain like inbtwn shoulder blades? If so, pregnancy pillow help? Also starting to get pain lower abdomen/stomach. Think it’s everything stretching inside, but didn’t know if something could help!

Does anyone have a good psychologist/counselor recommendation in NYC? One that accepts United and doesn’t charge $130 “for the first six sessions”? I just want someone I can pay $35 weekly.

Anyway to slim down legs; just want to smooth out this massive imbalance that the body seems to favor to the downside

Any other lonely social workers in here? I mean a lot to some of the people on my caseload but that's about it. Don't have any family near me and it's hard to make friends with non-SW's mostly just because I'm too tired after work to want to do much. Do you spend most of your time alone or is your social time self care for you? Just feel like I don't have a support system!

My partner of 5 years ended our relationship last night. I’m shattered and feel absolutely sick, and I know the healing isn’t going to be easy. We were on the verge of an engagement and I was ready to spend the rest of my life with him.

I don’t know how to approach work during this time. I think I can get by, but I’m definitely not 100%. Should I talk to my boss about it? My team is close-knit and comfortable around each other, but I don’t know if it’s “appropriate.” What would you do?

Hi everyone! I currently work in an outpatient setting doing individual therapy but am planning to leave my job. I have a handful of patients, some of which have been meeting with me consistently for over 2 years, that I suspect will want to remain in touch after I leave. Has anyone ever done this before? If so, what did it look like for you and the patient? Or do you advise against it and if so why? I’ve been researching this and can understand both sides of the argument. Thanks in advance!

My boyfriend just came out to his mom and she’s been horrible to him... he’s no longer allowed to go home... I’m traveling for work. I want to be there for him. Any partners with advice?

I’m at my step dad’s lake house and it’s in a gated very upper class neighborhood. There was a holiday party last night and it was incredible how much people were gossiping and talking crap about other people at this party. Everyone was very “successful” and wealthy, and it was just so weird seeing all of this drama and gossip from people who seem to have it all.

Since we returned to office in October, is it appropriate to give holiday gifts to team members?

Hi All, I am planning to move to a rival firm but have a notice period of 2-3 months in my current month. Has someone done something similar ?
