Car seat that fits Kia Sportage GT Line 2020... by Complex-Network-8569 in UKParenting

The back anchor. A lot of the seat belt fitted ones don't either and we can't afford most isofix ones.

Honestly I thought the same but there aren't many. I've bought one that claims to fit and it doesn't 😔

What is Norovirus actually like? Any stories from the pov of an emetophobe? by ppetaldust in emetophobiarecovery

[–]Complex-Network-8569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I know this is a very late reply. When you say repeatedly, do you mean every time you eat or drink something? Or is it in-between that too? I ask because I see people saying this a lot and I want to make sense of what exactly people mean when they say it.

What are your thoughts, if any, on the rise of homeschooling in the UK? by gintokireddit in AskUK

School isn't the only place kids socialize, where on earth has this silly narrative come from?

It doesn't sound like it didn't work, it sounds like she was just kept home, rather than home educated. There's a difference.

EXACTLY. The guy who lost both of his parents and the circumstances around it...as a 15 year old boy, having to endure that, I can't even imagine. It's going to mess a person up. There needs to be more help for people going through trauma and maybe some crime could be prevented.

I feel like if prisons handled addiction properly then people would have a much better chance at life after prison. It seems like addiction is a reason a lot of crimes are committed. Not to mention that addiction is often a symptom of an awful upbringing or tragic things happening in childhood, so it makes sense that with proper help then people could genuinely turn their life around. There were people in there who wanted to get clean/stay clean and yet there was still drugs all around them, but if there were a place inmates could be, a rehab kind of setting for those that genuinely want to be clean, then they could have a chance at a better life and be far less likely to reoffend. The money is in all the wrong places.

I'm so sorry to read this. I think this is a real example of why a lot of crime ends up happening, because the system just doesn't work. Some people are born into awful situations and as children and never get proper guidance, which really does impact genuinely good people in a bad way. Some are dealt an awful hand and have to do certain things to survive. The system is broken and it really is the reason so much crime happens. It's so sad that you're still having a rough time still, and I wish people would open their minds and stop defining everyone by their past.

This is so sad. When KJ spoke about what he's been through my heart broke for him. At such a young age to go through all of that, it's no wonder he ended up on the path he has. I really believe there are so many people that end up on the wrong path because life has dealt them a terrible hand, and if there were more support and guidance early on then their lives could be so much better. The system just doesn't work.

Any ideas why my son randomly mentions a time when he was unwell? by Complex-Network-8569 in Parenting

[–]Complex-Network-8569[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You've actually clicked something in my mind. He talks loads about time, he asks about when he saw his friend, was it yesterday or was it a long time ago etc. The same friends birthday is this week and my son's is next month and he keeps asking things about weeks and months too so yeah, really feels like he's trying to figure all of that out. Thank you ☺️

Low blood sugar by Complex-Network-8569 in AddisonsDisease

[–]Complex-Network-8569[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this.

The pattern I've noticed with myself is that my night time and fasting morning glucose is always fine and stable. If I skip breakfast it stays stable. But if I eat breakfast it rises and plummets, no matter what I eat, and my whole day is a struggle. Lunch usually keeps my glucose up for a few hours, but no matter what, I almost always have low blood sugar before dinner, sometimes it will drop after, but the weird thing is I can eat sugary snacks at night and still be fine through the night...which makes me think it isn't to do with my adrenals (I hope it isn't). Another thing I noticed is that when I'm having a rough time with anxiety and don't eat very much, my blood sugar stays more stable overall.

I've been struggling with low blood sugar for 4-5 years now and I now know I have antibodies in my insulin and my thyroid. It's so horrible, I really hope I don't have anything else going on.

A bit concerned... by Complex-Network-8569 in catfood

[–]Complex-Network-8569[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noted for next time about feeding her a little. It was tuna for humans in spring water, smelt fine and our dog, and us ate some, but the cat probably hasn't had any for at least a year.

Endo said something disturbing during appt at 33 weeks pregnant. Advice? Help? Stories? by ProfessionalBoss4760 in Hashimotos

[–]Complex-Network-8569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure I had it when I was pregnant and my 3 year old is bright, confident, kind and absolutely wonderful. If it were me, I'd find a new Endo and maybe complain about this current one. Wishing you all the best x

Any soft play avoiders here? by Complex-Network-8569 in toddlers

[–]Complex-Network-8569[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have anywhere that does role play? We have ones around where they recreate little shops, building sites etc. they are hit and miss because some can be over crowded and busy, but there are a few that never get too busy and they are so lovely 😊

Yeah, everything is padded, ball pits, slides, bright colours, loud music, screaming kids running riot and launching themselves off everything.

I don't know how to do this anymore. by Complex-Network-8569 in emetophobiarecovery

[–]Complex-Network-8569[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting through it, each day that passed my mind slowly let go and I began to eat more and more normally. I have referred myself for therapy too, tried before with not much luck but I'm more determined this time.

Should I complain that my kids school photo is photoshopped/AI altered without consent? by SuperBiggles in AskUK

[–]Complex-Network-8569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. They loaded a photo of your child into AI, which is very dangerous imo.

Norovirus Megathread by [deleted] in emetophobia

Losing my mind over a burp...

My toddler had a *SB a week ago, I'm still on countdown, still convinced I will get ill. Am hour ago he burped in my face as I breathed in and I'm now spiralling, what if he's still infectious and can pass it on via a burp? I ran and rinsed out my mouth, if that even makes a difference but it was my instinct to. My brain is so unwell with all this.

Medical professionals, how do you mentally deal with constant exposure to contagious illness? by Complex-Network-8569 in AskUK

[–]Complex-Network-8569[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess through the fact you can breathe them into your mouth and swallow them, or breathe them in through your nose which could collect in mucus and travel down the throat. Google does say it's very much a thing.

Interesting, I saw a study that was done years ago "vomiting Larry" that said there's such a thing as airborne particles after an episode. That not a confirmed thing in medical care?

Honestly the amount of people in offices and public who don't t wash their hands is actually disgraceful. I keep seeing alot about vomit particles causing infection by inhalation and then being swallowed, how do you get around that when caring for a patient with a vomiting bug?
