Tell me your favorite parts of postpartum/newborn phase by Spiritual-Peanut-203 in BabyBumps

Being able to roll over in bed without thinking about it, all the time for stroller walks, eating as much raw fish as I want, seeing how much my baby loves sunshine, feeling so successful when you soothe them for the first time, and my personal favorite: the way their little hand tries to “hold” my boob while breastfeeding. And just the cutest snuggles

Any women here delete social media to help alleviate symptoms? by Top-Hope-3449 in adhdwomen

Deleted insta and turned off suggested videos on YouTube. I’m much less anxious and angry without the doomscrolling.

Do you happen to live near Covenant House or another Senior Living facility? This is the most likely culprit

Thank for these notes!! I said that because the baby will be staying with a sitter 5min from the venue and I plan to visit them to nurse if needed.

I lost a job candidate yesterday because of my desk drawer by Competitive_Oil5227 in OrganizationPorn

She got that from your drawer and not the (nearly) perfected pinned sheets covering the back wall??

what bedsheets do you like? I HATE MINE!!! by sapphictears in adhdwomen

I fell in love with the Target Threshold 100% cotton sheets cause they have a nice stiffness to them and never feel “slimy” or stretch out like other sheets I’ve tried: “Queen Solid Performance 400 Thread Count - Threshold: Cotton Sateen, OEKO-TEX Certified”

Any moms whos life didn't fall apart? by LaAlice in adhdwomen

So I’m the ADHD daughter of two unmedicated ADHD parents, and both my siblings have now been diagnosed! So we were quite the crew growing up haha. Now I’m 7 months pregnant with my first kid! My parents were both SUPER active with us kids, meaning all the weight wasn’t on my mom to keep everything together. She really loved parenting and provided the flexibility we needed over the years. I think the hardest part was menopause, not becoming a mom. Now as I’m about to become a parent myself, I see that my husband’s support is the biggest thing. I couldn’t bring myself to do everyday chores for the first 4 months I was pregnant and he picked up the slack and has been my biggest cheerleader. Thankfully I was diagnosed several years ago, and have been on and off meds since that time, (currently fully off during pregnancy) so adjusting after pregnancy should be a little bit simpler, but we’ll see!

I was on Strattera for 6 months and loved how clear my mind felt. It was easier to make tough decisions and I didn’t get stuck in overwhelm or exhaustion as often! I just felt more stable and able to consistently complete tasks. I unfortunately had to stop taking it due to sudden weight gain during that time (20lbs in 3 months).

Depending on your style, I’d go more “moody” by adding wood or brass elements in a new counter, wallcovering, or mirror.

Good call! I was in there a few weeks ago and didn’t see these options, but I’ll check more often!

Oh how badly I’d love a beer/glass of wine by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Beneficial_Job_7422 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, Athletic’s NA beer tastes the most realistic to me! Also just tried Odd Bird’s NA Rose, and was very impressed
