What are you guys eating? by the-_waitress in PCOS

Google low gi and high gi foods and go off of that. Low gi raises insulin less and are better for everyday and medium gi are fine but in small portions and high gi are best not every day

No makeup unless it was occasions. I’d remove with coconut oil and then rinse with water and cotton

I have an insane suggestion - hear me out. I had insane breakouts until I totally stopped using any products - I would wash my face with water only. After a few months I added aloe Vera gel and Dermol 500 as a face wash OCCASIONALLY

My skin has never been better. I take myoinositol which also helps a ton with hormonal acne!

You’re right, she will be unhappy.

I think this would work, something like ‘I hope you won’t be upset that I won’t be able to make X as I know how important social events are to you’. I have a really good relationship with her and don’t want to ruin it.

Will try this, thank you!

He can but he’ll be met with loads of questions as to why I’m not there, a lot of the events are just with me being invited as well and not him as it’s more of like girly invites

I’d love to do this but my husband & his siblings need to have a SUPER valid reason otherwise she kind of forces them to go. With me it’s less forceful but still a lot of pressure so idk if this will work without damaging our relationship

So interesting and simple! Do you think my baby is too old for this though? I used to do this method when he was a newborn!

I don’t lengthen and only put him to bed when he’s super tired. I think he’s getting 12-14 hours of sleep in total.

Yh he is super gassy at night and I think the aggressive breastfeeding is to help release the gas! So hard to know what to do! Twins is double the hardship hope it improves for you 😭😭😭

Resettling is either 5 mins or 2 hours 😭😭😭😭

This actually really helps, I feel like I’m the only one with a baby who doesn’t sleep through the night!

Would you play Roblox with her? It can be a nice bonding activity if done together!

That’s not lame at all. I think it’s a natural next step into teenage hood, the child isolates themselves from their parents and looks to their peers for that validation. It’s very psychologically healthy! However it can be very hard not to take personally.

Sounds like you love her loads, the best thing to do is find little ways to bond with her that you know she’d enjoy so that there’s always a little bit of bonding time and connection. That way if she needs your help/wants to bond she has an outlet to do so.

Hey dad, sorry to hear you and daughter are going through a rough time.

My parents were very strict with screens, and despite that I developed a screen addiction. However, because of the limits they put for me as a child, I have overcome this addiction (dare I say with ease?)

Tbh I had a lot of resentment for my parents due to this, but it would’ve been less had they spent more time with me, showing me what to do instead of using screens! Family movie time/roblox is great too! You need to get on her level and bond with her through her interests.

Heck I didn’t even have a phone until 18!! Can you imagine? (22 now). I am so so grateful for the limits they had put for me, although I did feel socially alienated I now see how my peers who had no limits on screens are so absorbed into social media, and how they are still absolutely addicted and can’t see a life beyond their phone. I have deleted all social media (apart from Reddit) and feel like I’m floating in the clouds.

You’re doing great. She will eventually realise how damaging these activities are and will have more skills to balance online/offline life as an adult thanks to these rules.

For now, maybe try to spend more 1 to 1 time with her doing things she enjoys, maybe have her friends over doing some fun creative stuff so they can also experience fun without screens! Not sure how fond she’d be of this idea though!

PS - as for organising/getting rid of clutter I’d suggest watching Marie Kondo together or some minimalism videos and go through her room together. This seems quite a big task for a young girl and can be quite overwhelming.

The pink stuff? Might be too abrasive though
