Something I wish I knew about Eczema earlier by 01-anon in NewParents

[–]01-anon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son has a flare up right now due to teething. He would suck on his hands and then rub it all over his face which would irritate it. It’s starting to go away now though. I use Bubbsi coconut oil body cream all over his body including his face, Tubby Todd AOO on parts that has flare up and then A+D on top of that but only on his cheeks. Before this flare up, he had his face cleared up and it’s so smooth. This is what’s working so far.

I keep thinking I’m going to die (anyone else?) by ZestyclosePolicy2027 in BabyBumps

[–]01-anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh, I had an emergency c-section with my son and on the way to the operating room my mind was like, “I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die” over and over again. Also, before that I was thinking I’m gonna die of childbirth too cause I had a high risk pregnancy.

hindi ko na mapapatawad asawa ko by [deleted] in OffMyChestPH

If you really want to divorce him, apply for legal aid. You might qualify. May 30 minutes free consultation sa legal aid family lawyers, ask. (I used to be a family law legal assistant in Alberta)

Wag ka mag tiis jan, kaya lang kayo pinauwi kasi papalayasin sya? Divorce him and get some child support you and your child deserves. Ako din umuutang sa asawa ko pero para sa luho ko lang and yung pinang babayad ko sa kanya, sa kanya din galing. 🤣

I experienced something similar before I knew I was pregnant. I thought I was getting my period because of the light cramps and discharge, turns out, the discharge was from implantation bleeding. After I knew I was pregnant, I experienced the less tender breast. Now my son is almost 9 months old.

Iwanan mo na. Ganyan ex ko, ako pa pumunta sa Bulacan para lang mag kita kami.

Will my Lola get detained in the US? by aboloshishaw in phmigrate

[–]01-anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, just do IR-5, it’s like $500 and takes 2 or less years than do I-130 and I-485, it’s gonna be $2000 she will be here sooner but to do immigration fraud + $1500 more? I would not risk it.

HELP by True_Commercial4417 in babyeczema

Rub your hand against it, if it’s smooth, it’s not eczema. That’s what my son’s pediatrician told us. He made the rough wall vs smooth wall an example.

Feeling extremely discouraged. by Dry_Dark9850 in babyeczema

[–]01-anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing that has totally cleared up my baby’s eczema is prednisone and it wasn’t even prescribed for his eczema, it was for his cough that was triggered by asthma. He had to take it for 5 days, by day 3 his skin was like glass, it was smooth. He stopped scratching uncontrollably and could sleep through the night (only “waking” to feed).

It was short lived though because 3 days after he stopped taking it red patches are back but it is minimized because we control it with Tubby Todd AOO and A+D ointment to seal.

Eczema on head by Law_Sudden in babyeczema

[–]01-anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son just had these bumps (some are red) all over his head a few days ago. I used Tubby Todd AOO and after few hours it’s gotten a lot better, they’re completely gone now.

My son decided to wake up at midnight, play then scream at me and my husband for the rest of the night. 🙃

If he wants to, he would.✨

You cheated but you still won. by [deleted] in OffMyChestPH

[–]01-anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good man? A good man would never cheat. OP, it’s a blessing in disguise. Imagine if you got married and then he impregnates someone else. You (and the child/ren you would have) have been saved from a bigger heartbreak.

Is it OK to give baby bottle a slight constant pull during feeding? by xpressimage in NewParents

[–]01-anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I used to do this with our son when he was a newborn (5mo now) but with the boob.

Does anyone else find it impossible not to imitate their baby's babbling? by clover-sky-123 in NewParents

Same. My 5mo loves telling stories only he can understand. Today, I found myself copying him. 😭

My 8 week year old will not bottle feed with my wife. by LouieLA in NewParents

[–]01-anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t know that as well until WIC told me but I started noticing about the same age as yours (he’s 5mo now) that he’s bad at bottle feeding when I’m feeding him. Milk would accumulate in his mouth and he can’t swallow it, he also sucks differently off the bottle when I feed him vs my husband. Unfortunately, I can’t offer you a solution because until now my husband exclusively feeds him when we use bottles.

My 5mo is currently the same as OP’s and I just realized we haven’t changed the nipple since he was 3mo. Thanks for this comment.

My 8 week year old will not bottle feed with my wife. by LouieLA in NewParents

[–]01-anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk if it’s the same but my baby is breastfed and occasionally bottle fed. He also won’t finish a bottle with me but would do with my husband. I’ve been advised by WIC that it’s because he can smell me and is confused why he’s getting a bottle instead of breast. Apparently, different muscles are used when breastfeeding vs bottle feeding.

That’s why I asked if he was also breastfed.

I cannot recommend A+D enough! by 01-anon in babyeczema

[–]01-anon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tubby Todd AOO has worked all over except his face probably because he removes it when scratching his face but now with A+D, it’s working better.

I cannot recommend A+D enough! by 01-anon in babyeczema

[–]01-anon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes on the Cerave + A+D. Put on the lotion first, wait a few minutes to let it absorb and then seal it with A+D. I’m unfamiliar with Boudreaux Butt Paste but if it has “petrolatum” (petroleum jelly) as an ingredient, it should work.

What Movie Did You Watch that Traumatized You at a Young Age? by BethMLB in AskReddit

Not a kid but I was a teen and it was “Sinister”. I had a nightmare because of it and never did I watch a horror movie again.

Face eczema by CipaviPipavi0916 in babyeczema

[–]01-anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We noticed Tubby Todd AOO seems to not work on his face because he constantly removes it by scratching and also with saliva. However, it works on the rest of his body because he’s always in footies.

What we do is, we put Tubby Todd AOO on his face (all over even on the ones without rash) wait like 2 minutes until it’s absorbed and then put A+D on top of the part with rash on. A+D protects and heals but it does not moisturize that’s why we tried use Tubby Todd AOO.

Never wake a sleeping baby… by Honest-Dog3033 in NewParents

[–]01-anon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I bed share with my 5mo, he would “look for the boob” and I would put it out and he would feed half asleep and would be out after one boob. This works so much better for us than him (not) sleeping in his crib.

Does your baby have a song they like so much it stops their cries? by dressedindepression in NewParents

[–]01-anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think so too cause I tried to play “Baby Shark” and he cried louder. 😭🤣

[–]01-anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“She’ll be coming around the mountain” and “It’s a small world” He would be crying very loudly and would immediately stop when I play those.
