02/06 - Wishful Wednesday!

nah, just smells like mac n cheese.

 

They also told you K2 wasn't for human consumption. Look where that got people

 

discharged from the military

 

Poor @ChrisTurk . He's gonna starve for the next 9 months. Cause you can't eat anything AT ALL that has any scent of any kind. Good Luck!!

 

Looking back, the signs were obvious...there's no way someone could be away so much "writing code" and still have so many bugs



...seriously though, congrats!

 

I cant even tell you how many times I sat in the ER with one of my friends because he thought he was having a heart attack from K2. My addiction clients won't even touch it.

 

It's alright I've been training on stuff w/ no flavor so really what's losing one more sense

 

I just thought that's what they were calling it these days...

 

I can't even catch a cold today. Going back to bed

 

So, just know and tell her this from a mama who did this TWICE. The second time on purpose knowing what I was in for, it gets easier to deal with. I promise. The first 4-5 months were the WORST both times (I know, that seems like a really long time right now). But the last 4-5 months were a bit easier. Second pregnancy was easier as I knew what worked the first (with a few differences, like I loved bananas the first time, they made me sick to look at the second time).

Tell her it's totally worth it, she will find what works for her, carry plastic bags wherever she goes just in case she has to suddenly throw up (I took a train to work every day with my first, had several baggies in my backpack at all times...also, double up the bags just in case), carry small bits of food, and don't be afraid to experiment with foods. I was a vegetarian when I got pg with daughter, but found out McDonald's Chicken Nuggets were THE BOMB. Cured my nausea for a good 45 mins after eating and I never threw them up. My doctor was vegetarian, too, and was all, "Eat meat girlfriend. Eat McDonald's. You have to keep some food down!"

Also, warm baths. When it was the worst...a warm bath just made me feel better (and I was really close to the commode just in case).

Feel free to ask me any questions (PM if you prefer!) It's been nearly 15 years since Kiddo exited the nausea chamber, but I remember both pregnancies like they just ended yesterday, and I totally feel for what she's going through. It's not easy!

Pros:
No.

Cons:
- Bot checks
- Timed pages
- The game requires nothing from you except waiting and clicking the next button, which is a bit boring and a waste of time
There are 5-6 blocks, with 3 rounds each, just the stupid game part took 4-5 minutes and you won't be able to complete it any faster because again, the pages are timed.
- After the stupid game, there is a task where writing is required for every question and then bubbles for each part. I think there are 10ish writing questions. Your answers can be short, but by this point, I was already too far in and wanted to write a scathing review.
- After the writing, there is one more page of BUBBLES + demographics.

Qualifications: Total approved HITs >= 1000; Exc: [-553353090-127506] DoesNotExist ; Location In CA, US; HIT approval rate (%) >= 96;
