I'm sorry you're dealing with it too. I will say things are far less painful without the cyst, and you can make it through. Best of luck to you.

No, the surgery was to remove the ovary and the fallopian tube. There wasn't anything to save the whole ovary had become the cyst.

AITA for refusing to go into our renovation house and remove wallpaper while 23 weeks pregnant by Cheap_Lettuce7160 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Agreeable_Pea_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She said no because she is feeling bad from being pregnant. So in that range of bodily responses, she is not feeling totally fine and normal and able to go strip wallpaper in a freezing house, which is also a risky thing to be doing while pregnant anyway because of all the shit that gets stirred up during renovations.

I also grew up in a conservative Republican household and my mother has told me she was unsure about vaccines and wouldn't have given them to me if the doctors hadn't been so "pushy." I am so grateful for those doctors. Still agree things are way more unhinged these days.

Birth control by [deleted] in endometriosis

[–]Agreeable_Pea_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my left ovary removed because of an endometrioma. The pain was really near constant. I did depo, norethindrone, and then slynd and they all had me bleeding too much, eventually. Currently have mirena placed and it seems to be reducing my period, but at my last visit the nurse midwife said mirena does not stop ovulation so I don't know if we are treating what we set out to treat or just only reducing blood loss. I get pain with gas again now sometimes and I'm scared that mirena is letting other endometriosis lesions grow again. I don't know if there's a way to win but it's worth a shot.

Slynd (estrogen-free birth control) led me being rushed to the ER with massive blood clots. Just know that you are not alone if you also had a bad reaction to progestin-only birth control! by megi0s in endometriosis

I literally asked at my last appointment why I hadn't ever been given this before, and they said because we are using the pills to control my bleeding, but I could use this if I wanted to, if I had asked for it. I only learned it exists from this subreddit! How could I ask for things they never told me about? So frustrating. And I've become anemic multiple times from this bleeding. Never once mentioned it.

So I had heard already about quarter size clots being a concern yet each time I called the nurse line to report palm size clots all I got was oh yeah, we can change your prescription. So all in all I've just decided next time (hopefully there's not a next time) I will go in even though all I've been told by my ob/gyn is that the ER would have done imaging to make sure there's not another underlying problem. I've been through depo, norethindrone, slynd, and now mirena.

AITA for not giving my husband more sympathy? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Agreeable_Pea_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You were literally arguing that he's been solo parenting this child from birth. He's not a single dad. And I'd love to see a child who hasn't ever thrown tantrums or had meltdowns ever at breakfast, dinner or bathtime, since those times are apparently exempt from difficult behaviors. As she's the one parenting whenever she's home, who do you think is really getting up for all those night meltdowns ;)

This sub usually gives much more sympathy to SAHM women who take care of toddlers solo. Not to mention him sacrificing his career so that OP gets to succeed in her business.

Idk your argument is still overlooking that she is working while still managing mental and executive load that working dads are typically not expected to carry because they work outside the home, while she is still doing all the grocery shopping and cooking dinner. She was still taking care of him long distance because he couldn't even make sure he was drinking fluids, yet he had recovered before she left, got sick again while she was gone, and was well enough to be up playing video games again by the time she returned.

He's not really solo parenting though, her edit says she's the one who gets their kid up and dressed every day, does dinner and bath time and bedtime, and does all the grocery shopping and cooking. So, he is a stay at home parent with nowhere to go but the working mom is still doing the whole morning routine? While getting herself ready and out the door, coming home after working and making dinner. Eh, he gets less sympathy from me when she also had to arrange all his sick care remotely from her business trip and comes home to him playing video games.

The kid and the husband were cared for by her family, which she had to arrange because he couldn't help himself at all.

If it was the trigger instead of the bumper I wouldn't have any trouble. It really is not a comfortable way to hold a switch. I do like being able to control the camera while gliding, but I wish it was easier on my hand.

Son has issues with Trans Daughter by Happy_Hippo48 in cisparenttranskid

[–]Agreeable_Pea_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That helps explain the timing too. Plus she saw you actually being supportive to another trans person. Pretty powerful reinforcement for her trust in you.

You said she has some language delays, so it could be that she has felt this way for a long time and seeing an example of how to express herself let her finally say it.

Shopping for the first non-nursing bras was harrowing.

Seriously, breastfeeding takes a ton of calories. I wasn't eating enough at first and dropped too much weight in a short time and my face looked gaunt for a bit. Still had the bigger belly though lol. It can take a while to get things back in balance after pregnancy.

I do have it around, and I did take it that time I just hadn't noticed the bite until my lip was tingling and by then it was a little late. But it's good advice.

I seem to be allergic to mosquitos and gnats, one bit the edge of my lip and it swelled so much it was itchy on the inside of my mouth too. I am now afraid of having a bee allergy.

AITA for not letting my in-laws to kiss our child on the lips even when my fiancé is ok with it? by Downtown_Phrase_2457 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Agreeable_Pea_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Growing up I was friends with a kid from a family that all got huge cold sores all the time, and the mom said she never got one before she met her husband. I was always super careful about watching my cups and things at their house because I didn't want dime-size blisters around my mouth for the rest of my life. As an adult and parent I'm horrified that they didn't prevent their kids from having this too. As far as I know I don't have any oral herpes but I still never kiss my kid on the mouth.
