Phlebotomy

Thinking of starting the Phlebotomy program while pregnant, do you guys think it’s worth it? Any mommas in the medical field? Just looking to get some type of certification/license that doesn’t cost more than 2k so i have something to fall back on after labor!

I did Medical Assistant program while I was pregnant , I graduated when I was 6 months, it was really hard to find a job pregnant so I waited 2-3 months after my baby was born to start applying but, most of the MA jobs required experience. I don’t know about phlebotomy I heard it’s more entry level so it’ll probably be easier to get into after you finish the program.

I did phlebotomy program accelerated I finished in like 2 weeks but I was already 8months when i finished my program so I’m waiting for my maternity leave to be over to get a job

Are the women in this group just physically incapable of being kind?

So much argumentative and judgemental commenting.
Over-opinionated to the point of being just plain nasty and provocative.

Vitamin D yes or no? (Breastfeeding mums)

I’m a first-time mum and I’m exclusively breastfeeding. Since I started giving my baby vitamin D drops, he seems to have stomach pain, discomfort, and gas. This morning he also vomited some yellow fluid (bile). I contacted NHS 111 and got a GP appointment this afternoon.
The doctor told me that I don’t need to give my baby vitamin D because it’s already in my breast milk. However, my health visitor and the feeding support team have always told me that I should give vitamin D supplements.
Now I’m confused about what to do. Who is right, and why are they giving different advice?

Are you tired of looking at the inside of your house????

Listen, I've been a SAHM Mom for about 2yrs now and all my friends have jobs so I rarely see people or have adult conversations! I don't like being on the phone long cause my son is loud. I need more than the inside of my house, who likes park meetups and doing something with the kids just to get out the house!! Hit me up if you're in Atlanta
