GeeGolly July 16, 2018 Share July 16, 2018 I know this is the Duggars, but I would not want little toddler petri dishes all over my newborn. I'm surprised children that young are even allowed to visit. 11 Link to comment

My husband has been complaining about unwanted attention from the neighborhood dogs. I wonder if this is also a problem for Derick, or if his repellant personality is enough to keep them away. 5 Link to comment
libgirl2 July 16, 2018 Share July 16, 2018 1 hour ago, charmed1 said: Ha ha ha! This comment reminds me of the movie, “Fill the Void.” A Hasidic girl is pressured by her family to marry her brother in law after her sister dies in childbirth. They didn’t want the brother in law to move the child out of the country, so that was their solution. I can see Michelle approaching Jana in her creepy baby voice, “Jana, Izzy and that other one already love you so much. It’s what Jilly Muffin would’ve wanted.” I have to see that sounds interesting. 1 Link to comment

The hospital where I practice used to ask that no children under 12 be allowed to visit the maternity floor except for siblings. They got so many negative comments about the policy as well as a lot of grief from people who didn't care about the rules and brought the kids up anyway, that they dropped the policy. Now, it is a free for all at visiting time, often a dozen or more people crammed into the room including kids. Ridiculous. Of course, the postpartum rooms are all private and the babies now room with their mothers virtually 24/7; so at least other people's babies aren't exposed to the germs. There is a sign at the entrance asking that no sick kids visit and with hand sanitizer for everyone to use and masks for anyone with a cold. Seems to be mostly ignored though, people are pretty inconsiderate really. We also used to restrict visitors on labor and delivery to two people besides the parents, no switching back and forth. Once again, multiple complaints. Now, as many people as can cram into the room can be there, the staff is expected to work around them. Sometimes, I feel like we should set up bleachers and sell tickets. The other night, I was doing surgery until around 11 PM. I stopped up on L&D to talk to a friend. There were multiple preschool aged kids running around the waiting area and at least 2 kids in patient rooms who were crying/whining (not newborns). It was a circus and it boggles the mind to see how many people think it is perfectly acceptable to bring their little kids out in public in the middle of the night and let them run wild. BTW, insurance companies and the government peg hospital reimbursements to the scores on the patient surveys which is why the hospitals are forced to cave to the lowest common denominator. No matter what someone complains about, it is a complaint and counts against the score. And, yes, we have had people complain that the food wasn't good enough, that their significant other didn't get a regular bed instead of a fold out, that we didn't have HDTV and DVR's in the room (we do now) or that they didn't get various and sundry other amenities during their stay.

BitterApple July 16, 2018 Share July 16, 2018 (edited) It's really weird, but does anyone else think Jill looks more natural with other peoples' children than she does her own? I remember when Jessa visited her in Danger America and Jill was super affectionate towards Spurgeon but never seemed to be that way with Izzy. I notice the same vibe here. She looks really maternal with Garrett in the above picture but not so much with Sam. On a side note, Garrett is a beautiful baby. Edited July 16, 2018 by BitterApple 19 Link to comment

Dreck's twitting would definitely be uncovered, deleted or not. When DH had his background check, they interviewed our neighbors unannounced. They walked up and knocked on their doors.

DragonFaerie July 17, 2018 Share July 17, 2018 I was wondering since Jilly Bean can't be away from Derelick because, you know, women in scrubs may defraud him, that they asked Cathy to come to the hospital with them, so while Jill and Dullard were visiting with Izzy, Cathy was outside in a different area with Sammy. Then she could visit and Sammy was with J and D. 2 Link to comment

That explains why my 60 plus yo gray haired self is totally ignored in general surgical waiting rooms and emergency rooms and waiting rooms in general. Even if I do kinda complain about the noise and the kids running wild. Over the past 4 years I have sat in waiting rooms for 25 plus surgeries or major procedures plus too many ER room and office visits to count. Being a patient good guy can be filled with tensions and anxiety! I guess I have sorta complained about the wrong things! 6 Link to comment

This is why I left hospital nursing. My primary obligation as an RN should be to keep my patients safe, but nowadays it’s to keep them happy. This is fine when the two don’t conflict, but often they do and the administration caves to patient demands anyway. The final straw was when I had a woman who had already fallen once during her stay (for folks who don’t know, falls in hospitals are a big deal and also count against certification and reimbursement rates) complain to the administration about the fact that I kept reminding her not to get up without having a nurse or aide standing by. I got admonished by my nurse manager for providing “poor customer service.” Screw that. Hospitals all over the country are having a terrible time finding qualified nurses, and IMHO this is why. 32 Link to comment

We were so happy to go on many rides. We met friends and had fun") And so robotic, the only emotion is the use of a couple exclamation points - wonder which one of them wrote it and how long it took to compose. I'd also compare it to something you write when you're forced to buy the greeting card that's blank inside and have to come up with your own message but have no creativity or writing ability or something your five year old dictates to you so you can write out their thank you card to Grandma after she mailed them a hand knitted sweater for their birthday. 8 Link to comment

I think this is in direct response to the comments here about the possibility that Jill & Derick were not invited to visit the baby or that Jill was upset about not being asked to deliver the baby and didn't visit. If Jill is expecting to be the next housewife/homeschool You-Tube star, she needs to start writing a script, practicing beforehand, and get a tripod for her phone. My grandson watches toy review videos where the 4 year-olds do a better job than Jill. 8 Link to comment

floridamom July 17, 2018 Share July 17, 2018 Those hospital photos....I wouldn't want all of those people sitting on my hospital bed. It's just not done. When we would visit an inpatient, we would STAND and not stay too long. It's tiring for the patient to have company when still admitted. Since Jill is profusely stating that she is NOT a professional teacher, why doesn't she GET ISRAEL A REAL, PROFESSIONAL PRE-K teacher for him in a real classroom. Why does he have to settle for the low totem pole with Jill's awful teaching skills? I'd want the best for my child....which is undoubtedly a good START. 9 Link to comment

I managed to make it all the way through. It didn't get better. For awhile there, the screen was full of - her chest. She was yakking away but we were looking straight at her chest; her face was nowhere to be seen. She didn't speak clearly, and when she wasn't mumbling, it was as @Lukeysboat said, a bunch of "ums" in a vast wasteland of bad grammar. Did she learn nothing from growing up with a professional television camera crew in the house? Did it cross her mind to sit down and *think* about that video in advance and write down what she wanted to say, maybe even take some test shots of the scene (like the cluttered kitchen counters in the background), before grabbing her phone and starting to record the thing for real? Seriously, that was just absolute crap, both in content and style. You don't need professional cameras or lighting gear to make good videos for YouTube. But you need to pay attention to what you're doing, to have some idea what you're saying, and just maybe a bit of a plan about where you'll be pointing the camera. 15 Link to comment

When Krispy Kreme give away their donuts it’s for their own self promotion.

I counted 12 boxes so nearly $100 in donuts. That, imo, is the epitome of greed. I get that it's a promo and Krispy Creme expects some to go all out, but this is just overkill and gluttony. My husband's work is getting together and we are picking up the donuts for the donuts burgers (which sounds disgusting) since we have an actual factory close to our house, which is why I knew the cost. 8 Link to comment

Yep, definitely not $2 a box. I purchase 6 dozen for co-workers from time to time. If they were $2 a box, I'd purchase more frequently! 1 Link to comment

Jill is a terrible speaker and her grammar is atrocious. *There’s games *Curriculums *So ... like ... um ... thingies ... and stuff ... um ... and stuff ... like, like, like ... I can’t stand it. Jill, the curriculum your mom used with you did not work that well. Seriously! I assure you that it is completely unnecessary to remind us that you are not a professional. You took the words out of my mouth. I clicked through and didn't watch it straight through and I got the same as you did. Jill's going to teach Izzy stuff. I hope that is totally helpful for all the homeschoolers out there! Note to Jill - the many Vloggers out there appear to wing it, however most prepare their thoughts in advance. Many do retakes until they get a suitable, watchable and coherent vlog that is worth posting. 11 Link to comment

How embarrassing that her family asked her to remove family event pictures. I feel a tad bit sorry for Jill and how everything she does is so effed up. From recipes, to vlogs, to pictures it's all so very wrong. I really wonder if she is starting to figure out how clueless she is? Edited July 17, 2018 by GeeGolly 14 Link to comment
