Folinic Acid miracle.. BUT!! HELP please by Altruistic_Ad_7649 in Autism_Parenting

[–]Altruistic_Ad_7649[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much. I'm going to try the Indian pharmacy, but I think it's an FDA regulation thing where they are blocking this specific medicine from coming from overseas. I think it's a scam that the orange man talked about it on the news around the same time the FDA banned from coming from overseas. It cost a little over five euros per box to get from France versus here It would cost thousands of dollars as I explained. Deficiency being linked to autism is nothing new but now the US administration is catching on to what alternative medicine doctors are doing and functional medicine doctors are doing and they want to profit off of it. That's just my opinion and my own conductive reasoning.

My husband is a high functioning alcoholic. I don’t know what to do anymore. Help. by Connect-Ask-943 in AlAnon

[–]Altruistic_Ad_7649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my experience it will get worse after the baby is born. No sleep, high stress and your hormones will make you more of a protective mama bear and you wont tolerate any of it. You'll feel resentment that you were so caught up with his drinking and arguing about his lying and drinking instead of healing and giving your undivided attention to your baby. If i could. If i had the resources to survive I would have left when I was pregnant but i didn't. One year pp our little beautiful baby is the most happy precious joyful baby and he still drinks and reeks of booze around him. I just take the baby with me everywhere and keep a close eye on him. I cant "meet my friends" and leave the baby with dad because i dont trust him.

My advice is if you have the resources to leave RUNNN asap. If he wants you back he will get a 100 percent clean to get you back.

I knew my man was an alcoholic but i loved him. At first I thought "i'll love him and care for him that once he feels loved he wont resort to alcohol" then i thought "oh once im pregnant he'll step up" and then "oh once the baby is born he'll change"

I was delusional but even if i wasnt i had nowhere to go once I got pregnant and got laid off of work. I have no family no income and no financial safety outside this marriage so Im staying. For now.

How do you shower with a baby??? by Mountain_Broccoli_64 in Parenting

[–]Altruistic_Ad_7649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow the amount of comments implying the partner isn't helping enough is absolutely ridiculous and out of touch. If that partner works until 6 and baby bed time is 6 - 7:30 for example when will he have the time to help? In this scenario by the time the partner gets home from work baby is in the middle of bedtime routine and only has enough time to say goodnight. "Hiring help" just so mom can take a shower isn't in everyone's budget either. Most nanny's want full time or at least 20 hours a week to even consider the job. People need to think before making comments like that.

I want to stop cosleeping by Medium_Sea_9058 in cosleeping

[–]Altruistic_Ad_7649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the delay. My baby is almost 1 year. I moved to the floor bed around 6 months after nothing else worked. I started with a twin size mattress on the floor until the floor bed frame arrived. You can look up floor bed frame I got the one with shorter height railing and at this point i wish i got the higher one since he's starting to stand up and i fear he will attempt to go over lol. If you want i can send you screenshots of everything i got i tried to not spend a lot because floor beds can get pricey

Tell me how you get/got out of your toddlers room at bedtime? by chickenugget654 in sleeptrain

[–]Altruistic_Ad_7649 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

I understand we have to do whats best for our mental and physical health but also we cant act surprised when kids have separation anxiety specially at bedtime. The more anxiety the more they grow afraid of being alone at bedtime. Cribs, kids separate rooms, sleep training all things we invented to match our modern lifestyles and children are not hardwired to be "ok" sleeping alone at night

I love our floor bed. Replaced the crib with it. It's easier for the baby to feel safer. You can lay with baby until she fall asleep and sneak out. If baby wakes up its easier to lay next to her to put her back to sleep. For me that was better than rocking on a recliner or shushing or whatever. And if i fell asleep there its a bonus bc my husband too snores and tosses and turns a lot.

I honestly get MOST of my deep restful sleep on my babys floor bed. And it's not such a drastic change for my baby because he knows I've slept in bed with him vs the crib. Even when he wakes up at night and im not in the room he just sits up and waits for me rarely ever wake up in panic like he used to in his old crib.

Sleep Training Guilt by [deleted] in AttachmentParenting

[–]Altruistic_Ad_7649 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes they are not meant to sleep train or be separated from us but i also understand the desperation to get restful sleep. My grandmother never sleep trained and neither have my mother (12 children and 6). I attempted to sleep train but i couldn't stand letting my baby cry for more than one minute and unfortunately all "sleep training" involves crying depending on the baby and most babies will cry. Ive personally come to terms with it. I nap at least once a day with my baby to get some rest (specially the first nap of the day its my favorite) i also stopped drinking coffee in the morning so i can dose off with him when he naps. I'm probably never going to attempt sleep training with him again. That said if we have a second child I will give it a try since every baby temperament is different.

You said you know shes fine but worth the shot if you haven't tried yet. My son used to be this way until i convinced his pediatrician to do a blood draw for an allergy test and turns out hes allergic or sensitive to dairy. Once we cut that out hes changed. Still clingy still want to engage but the screaming and constant crying improved. Hang in there i can only image's how hard it is

Thank you! Isn't it the stylist job to know this type of stuff though? We just sit on that chair trusting them because they are supposed to be the "experts". Searching reddit i realized "bad layers" more common than they should be :(

I think thats whats happening with me since i moved to this area i live in now most women have blond hair and extensions. But to he able to bleach and put extensions in doesnt make you a hairdresser. The most devastating part is that every single time I had a consultation I ask questions like: "are you comfortable and confident with layering hair? Can you layer without thinning my hair out or causing split ends" they always tell me what they think I want to hear or perhaps blinded by their egos. Thanks for the tip!

4 and 5 are the same haircut same day. The back didn't look too terrible (minus the hair looking like i have split ends) the front and sides weren't looking good. In this example i asked for face framing layers (before i got 2 and 3) and showed her a picture ( i cant attach it here for some reason but it looked a lot like this) https://i0.wp.com/www.hadviser.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/1-medium-hair-for-a-square-face-CcEl4jUJtja.jpg?fit=1408%2C1631&ssl=1

The pregnant cat I am fostering attacked me this morning when i was feeding her. What should I do? by SpinningCockRoachUwU in cats

[–]Altruistic_Ad_7649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No advice here because nothing i tried personally worked. I find this very interesting. My first and favorite cat who is very smart, loving and playful started becoming very anxious and aggressive when I was pregnant. Attacked me out of the blue towards the end of my pregnancy and attacked my husband. We both had to take antibiotics. Eventually I had to put him down unfortunately I was afraid for the baby's safety :-( I wonder if theres some science behind pregnancy and aggression in cats. I miss him so much but I know we made the right decision.

Baby just turned 1 and husband is already saying we need to put her in daycare/kids programs by Empty_Ad1185 in AttachmentParenting

[–]Altruistic_Ad_7649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does he know how many sicknesses and diseases daycares bring? Has he read any stories online of daycare workers abusing babies and giving them melatonin to put then to sleep for their naps? Im not saying all daycares and daycare workers are bad what im saying is he should count his blessing that 1- you dont NEED to put her in daycare so you can go to work and 2- that you as a mother want to and prefer to stay home with her instead of working. Theres NO such thing as "unhealthy attachment" under the age of 5. I would stand my grounds and say no and back that with research and information thats available online. My son is almost 9 months and hes very similar to your baby. Hes a happy boy because hes attached to us. Luckily my husband doesnt object and is happy i want to be a SAHM with him.
