COVID and her children having to go to school remotely apparently interfere with her life of playing tennis or ???? Self-centered and vapid as hell. She’s a stay at home mom; this is her job. If she doesn’t want to do it, she can afford help. She could have podded up with a couple of other families in the neighborhood and shared resources, she could have hired tutors (and probably should; if she thinks the plural of child is childs, maybe she should leave the educating to someone else), and even if she can’t do that, complaining about it to her husband, who is working 14 hours a day caring for people with a potentially fatal respiratory illness, is not a good look. ”Why did Anila invite Contessa?” Because they’re cast members on the same show.

sATL March 24, 2021 Share March 24, 2021 (edited) During one of the rants of Dr. Simone and Dr Jackie - I wish they would explain how big is their practice and the percentage of mommies who deliver on a given night, that use their services as opposed to a midwife. I'm not understanding the business side of delivery-to-dr oncall ratio. For example - I take they are on call for a time for all of the doctors (ex 5) in the practice. As an example, each dr has two patients who goes into labor Wed 3/24. So that is 10 babies. So does it really happen that on Thur 3/25 - there are 10 more new babies to deliver ? And then 10 more on Friday 3/26, and so on - it never ends? It just seems like there would be a night or two where , not counting multiple births, there is no baby. After all it takes 9 months... During my last few visits to the OB there were quite a few women who were not noticeable pregnant..It almost like as soon as a women deliver's they (Drs Jackie and Simone, independently) are on the hunt to find another mommy (new or repeat) to come into the pregnant/delivery rotation - ie get penciled in 9 months from March 2021...Heaven forbid a mommie-to-be walks in the door several months pregnant- which increases the delivery curve, in a time frame shorter than 9 months...

I do remember there were a few news stories of mommies who chose other delivery options to keep from going into the hospital during the height of the pandemic. Here is a description of a day in the life of an OB-GYN. While the doctor in this piece seems to only work at a hospital and not have a separate practice, I'm sure its fairly similar. One thing to keep in mind is that delivering babies isn't necessarily time driven. One deliver may take 2 hours and the next one takes 14. One key thing is that it sounds like the on-call doctor covers everyone's patients until they get close, then the actual doctor comes in for the delivery unless they are on vacation or in another birth. So you might be monitoring 10 patients but you are only actually delivering your 2 and maybe anyone who is out of the office that day. 1 hour ago, bichonblitz said: She is disgusting and I feel for Eugene.

Heavenly is annoying AF but her kids are gorgeous. She needs to keep her antiquated opinions to herself. She picked the worst moment to try to educate someone, although I would not be inclined to listen to her at all. Upthread regarding Contessa not listening and sometimes lacking empathy is true. I don’t think Contessa was threatening, but she was rude at the dinner and to Anila’s mother.

One of my favorite scenes of the show is the one where Simone's older son is going on his first date and Simone's sister is in town, and Simone has all this spy shit including a huge hat to hide under because she wants to spy on the date. Her sister loves the hat and, when Cecil is critiquing the son's outfit (which is also funny; he's like "You're wearing that?!"), the sister wanders through the background with the hat on all "See? You can't even see me!" and the whole family falls out. It's genuinely funny, but it's also just a nice moment in a family that likes each other. I laughed when the show shaded Anila by showing her acting just like her mom. Anila annoys me a lot. Doubling your budget doesn't just happen, and her husband is expressing real concern that they're so far over and she tells him to "give [her] a damn break." "Like any little girl, you just want stuff." You're a grown woman, though, not a little girl, so you need to make sure your balance sheet balances. Whining "But I want it!" is not cute in general, and it's even less cute when it's adults who do it. Michael's school and the town the school is in are probably not that happy with the family being like "this school and town are blatantly racist." I liked their goodbye to him though. I hope he does well, and that Miles gets on track.

red12 April 6, 2021 Share April 6, 2021 (edited) I AM NOT a professional and we have limited visibility into everyone's real lives. But, does Dr. Contessa give anyone undiagnosed ADHD vibes? I know it is underdiagnosed in girls and so many are not diagnosed until adulthood; especially if they are able to perform in school. The thought historically has been good grades mean the kids are okay. We know now that's not the case. She seems to have the aspects of hyper focus along with the inability to naturally "pick a one lane" as someone upstream pointed out. These don't have to be liabilities if one knows what to expect and how to design life strategies but they are the type of thing that results frustration and more criticism if those close to you do not know what's happening. Regarding Dr. Scott, it seems he didn't marry the type of woman he says he wants. Dr. Damon for example seems to have impregnated and married Dr. Heavenly before he would know what he was getting completely. Didn't they get together freshman year of college? Dr. Scott and Dr. Contessa seem as if they were both in the army and possibly medical school when they met. Wouldn't there have been indications of her ambition and jack of all trades type of personality at that age? It seems as if they just "fell in love" and decided that was the basis for partnership more than shared interests and visions for the future. I also don't understand the reluctance for talking to a trained, credentialed, licensed professional vs. multiple conversations deriding the relationship with friends and family who are wholly unqualified to help. If someone had a broken arm and said, "Big momma knows what to do." All of these doctors would think that was insane.

StevieRocks April 11, 2021 Share April 11, 2021 Ugh. I stopped watching M2M before because of that fugly hag, Heavenly, and I'll probably stop again just because I cannot stand the sight of her or that loud, screeching, cackling old-woman shrew voice. She was revolting enough in the beginning with that fake-ass Taliban "submission to your man" bs, and now she's even more gross as the drunk, insecure, intimidated, obese school-yard bully. At least if she had stuck to her original fake persona, she wouldn't be coming off now as this desperate, thirsty fame-whoring hag willing to do or BE anything for her Bravo paycheck. When you're as physically unattractive as Big Pig Heavenly, you can't also have the heart and personality of Satan. 1 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73697-married-to-medicine-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-6714585

I caught a quick commerical during the episode last night https://jetdoc.com/ "ATLANTA — Rick Ross has added the title of healthcare hero in one of his recent boss moves. The multi-platinum hitmaker has launched his latest venture JetDoc to Georgia residents. It’s a telehealth platform designed to make medical care and prescriptions easier and faster virtually. On April 2, JetDoc officially launched in the Peach State following Florida as the second state using the app. Ross, who invested $1 million in the start-up, hosted an intimate dinner and discussion about the app’s roll out in Georgia at his Promise Land Estate in Fayetteville" 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73697-married-to-medicine-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-6717168

I believe it's her younger son that told his parents he didn't want to be filmed or participate in the show. He was on an early episode, but like this where he appeared on camera but didn't speak. The other son was filmed a couple of times with Heavenly in the house. Both Heavenly and Damon have stated that they didn't want to force any of their kids to take part in the show and they accepted their son's position. Frankly, its one of the things that I originally gave Heavenly a lot of credit for, seeing how poorly some of the HW's kids have matured on tv. 2 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73697-married-to-medicine-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-6717388

Damon saying he was there for the camaraderie was really nice. Damon seems genuinely kind. I think Damon is kind. I also think that's he's one of those people who walks the talk. And its why I actually love the Damon and Heavenly pairing. Heavenly is A LOT, and Damon actually brings out her good qualities and modulates her, without dominating or controlling her. There was a scene a couple of episodes earlier when they were at Heavenly and Damon's house when Toya went off, and Heavenly started screaming at her. Damon had his arms around her and simply said "Stop yelling" and she stopped immediately. For better or worse, Heavenly recognizes that Damon is a good person and she really doesn't want to disappoint him or have him think less of her. He might be the only person like that in her life (although I think that Jackie is also starting to play that role for her) but he balances her out. And he's the one who wants to volunteer his time, provide care to the less fortunate etc. which is why that has become such a big thing for her. Heavenly doesn't have a lot of filters, and she seemingly hasn't internalized a lot of the lessons folks learn in childhood about how to get along with others. I think Damon blunts a lot of that and seemingly he asks and expects more of her and on her part she tries to make him happy by being a better person. She'd be absolutely unredeemable without his influence. 2 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73697-married-to-medicine-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-6723730

spunky April 19, 2021 Share April 19, 2021 What's considered rude is your friend Toya constantly inviting you to other people's events Kari. Toya is beyond tacky. Who discloses that they've sent their husband a picture of their vagina at a dinner table? No one asked for that information. No one! I've dealt with perpetually late people like Contessa. You always have to give them an earlier arrival time. If you need them somewhere at 6pm tell them to meet at 4pm, in that way they would be on time. 1 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/73697-married-to-medicine-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-6730407
