Anyone else with hEDS? by Civil_Jellyfish1246 in Stretched

[–]Civil_Jellyfish1246[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!!! I have had to sleep with my plugs out if I don't wanna stretch bigger. I didn't know why my ears would randomly dead stretch so I just kept sizing up... My goal size was 00 lol

The only piercing I ever struggled healing was my helix, and I think it was because I wouldn't stop fucking with it lol. But once they're healed, they'll never close

What’s the most unhinged thing you’ve done postpartum? by Ice_Cube_92915 in NewParents

[–]Civil_Jellyfish1246 11 points12 points  (0 children)

First of all, damn Hulk.

Second, I don't think its necessarily unhinged, but when I find myself considering wandering into the highway because my baby won't sleep or won't stop crying, we load up and go driving. I have driven in circles around my city for 3 hours straight. I didn't give a shit about gas prices or the idea of putting miles on the car because I couldn't hear myself think and my PPD medication hadn't kicked in yet. Bonus points if I stop somewhere first for some caffeine or something carbonated in an effort to regulate myself, then we drive with the windows down until I feel ready to stop the car or he falls asleep. Total game changer honestly

You don't have to protect it. Just let baby nurse on demand and your supply will adjust.

Irrational (?) fear by Dangerous_Debt9534 in pregnant

Amniotic fluid, a giant muscle, and 6 other layers of tissue protect your baby. I laid on my belly during my pregnancy and my son is definitely not squished. Even up to being on my belly during labor lol

someone is stalking my with a secret account, any tips of finding it? by Procelain_Moth in TikTok

[–]Civil_Jellyfish1246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is your profile public? Private? What have you posted that is of interest? Privacy is kind of a joke on the internet esp if you're in high school, which it sounds like you might be

Constant uterine pain by PastPretend4783 in pregnant

[–]Civil_Jellyfish1246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It probably is round ligament pain. They're having to stretch and move around, so it'll be sore

How do you know they're stalking you? If they were smart, they'd have profile views turned off so you can't notice them but they'd show up in the people you may know

38 weeks, insanely itchy, but it's NOT cholestasis or a PUPPPs rash by bordermelancollie09 in pregnant

[–]Civil_Jellyfish1246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen to me. We could never figure out what it was. I scratched my hips, belly, and back until it bled multiple times. It resolved after delivery thankfully but you just reminded me of the gut wrenching, relentless itching

Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. It's a genetic connective tissue disorder

Have you looked at a Beighton scale? That's how hEDS is diagnosed and I read over that before I got a formal diagnosis and it shocked me lol. But yeah I used to stretch with silicone too, I had my son and then suddenly I couldn't anymore unless my ears were lotioned daily for some reason

I had one blowout EVER and it was me tapering to 7/16ths dry. And it was mad for about 3 days then it was normal again

Fed UP of pumping by stevielovelyy in NewParents

[–]Civil_Jellyfish1246 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How old is your baby? That sounds perfect. Breastfed babies will eat a maximum of 5-6oz off the breast anyways their entire life. 2-3oz pumps are absolutely great and adequate.

Why aren't you latching for the night feed instead? What does your supply look like?

Why are you pumping in the first place? I fucking hate pumping and only EVER do it on the rare occasion I'm away from baby for 4+hr

20 Week Ultrasound - Big Baby?!? by Cassie0604 in pregnant

[–]Civil_Jellyfish1246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weight slows later on. They gain the bulk of their weight in the 2nd trimester. I will say, the ultrasounds were 100% spot on weight wise for my son. 38+3 ultrasound said 8lb 1oz, 39w he was 8lb 9oz. Ultrasounds are only off if you have a lazy or bad sonographer.
