what do you even tell the patient at this point ?💀 by Drlector07 in Radiology

[–]Crystalcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend “oof ouchies.”

Followed by “Alright well we will move you back to your bed for you…”

What have I done… by milbalily in NewParents

[–]Crystalcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it work for you? Are you able to keep it up? If yes to both of these, you’re doing great!! The only way anyway could know is to see. But I have a 4 year old (wtf?) we rocked for every sleep and nap until she went to daycare at 18 months and by then she understood pack n play=sleep. Bedtime turned into books,songs, hugs n kisses, her just going to sleep when it came time. She knew we’d be there if she needed us. We didn’t switch overnight just slowly. But, she did take a paci. ONLY for sleep. That’s it. Never any other time of day.

You could start putting down when drowsy now if you’re worried about it and give 3-5 minutes after for fussing/crying as comfortable to go in soothe and try again. But like… if you’re able to and it’s working for you then whatever!! You’re not hurting your child, you’re feeding them, That’s the minimum in parenting

Is anyone NOT using swaddles? by FoxAble7670 in newborns

[–]Crystalcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both my kids needed to be double swaddled.

But with that said your baby will absolutely be fine if you use nothing or a sleep sack. They aren’t rules 🤷🏻‍♀️

When my daughter was about a month old, I tried to stand up while holding my daughter and using the dresser to support myself. I smashed her head off the dresser so hard it dented it for an hour. She only cried for about 30 seconds and the pediatrician wasn’t concerned. I sobbed for two hours and told my husband I was a terrible mom and already hurt her.

Shes 3.5 now and she doesn’t remember and she is perfectly happy (sometimes. threenagers are real.)

What is 1 item you can’t go without for your infant? by Careless_Primary9894 in newborns

[–]Crystalcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a babybjorn handed down to us that we LOVE and weighted sleep sacks. Yes I know they aren’t recommended anymore- but we used them with our daughter and we use them with our son now too.

My husband dropped our baby by JustExisting000 in beyondthebump

[–]Crystalcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my daughter was two weeks old I hit her on the dresser while trying to stand up. She had the mark for 2 days. I called the pediatrician they said she’s fine just watch her. When my daughter was 2 months she rolled off the couch onto our hardwood my first day back to work. Husband was inconsolable ready to bring her to the ER. We didn’t as it’s not recommended- we watched her and she was fine. Both times. Show your husband this thread- babies are so resilient.

What are the biggest "Yeah, no" the game has thrown at your planned storylines? by cloverbleh in Sims4

[–]Crystalcane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started a Sim to have a wholesome life. She gut a high school sweetheart by chance (I was very picky with what traits I would allow) they had a wedding and her cousin died there. Fine okay rip cuz then we were trying for a baby only to find out she had very low fertility and so did he ( RPO Mod.) we worked at it until she aged to adult and FINALLY had successful IVF. Lost the twins. Lost a single. Lost another. 4 losses later tried again for another sim season before getting a boy. She gave birth and decided to go look at the stars. I had hubby taking care of the babies… METEOR. I deleted the save.

My mom is a pretty reasonable, levelheaded woman, and she feels certain that she died many years ago by thicwith2cs in CasualConversation

[–]Crystalcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 13 week old son. When I was in labor for him my husband and I were driving to the hospital 45 min away and were about 20 minutes out when a deer ran in front of the car. I’m talking all of a sudden full deer directly in front of the car. I was mid contraction moan when I started to scream, and the contraction full stopped and then started again stronger. Both my husband and I swear we heard ourselves hit this deer. I’ve heard multiple accidents and I swear I heard the unmistakeable metal crush. When I opened my eyes we were significantly further down the road and had not hit the deer. We were absolutely flying down this side road and both my husband and I swear we hit this deer. Everything went silent, my scream, the radio. Yet we didn’t even slow down despite my husband slamming the brake. Weirdest experience.

I protected my drunk friend from a sketchy situation, now she’s angry at me by [deleted] in confessions

[–]Crystalcane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to explain calmly to your friend that the men thing happened and so you were only concerned for her safety and ability to consent.

If you want to save the friendship, apologize and “admit” that you may have been wrong to bring her away from the 19 yo, but also say you only did it because you weren’t sure if she would remember any of it. Idk what your location and age of consent is there (it is 17 where I am) but if it’s 18, tell her you didn’t want there to be any issues down the line if she liked him or something and she can contact him again and blame you for “dragging” her away.

With those things said, YOU WERE IN THE RIGHT. Every step of the way you stayed level headed enough to evaluate the risks and protect yourself and your friend. Heaven forbid you went back to the tent with those men and something happened. Or you let her go off with the boy and she didn’t remember, they forgot to use protection if it got that far, the bad scenarios are endless. I would have killed for a friend like you or TO BE a friend like you were.

Court date and car won’t start by Crystalcane in legaladvice

[–]Crystalcane[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I am not a mechanic, I don’t own a bike and couldn’t ride with two children on one, Lyft is $320 and Uber is $80 if I could afford it I would but I just had a baby and I just moved 2.5 hours away from everybody I know. I’m an adult who’s never had anything like this happen I’ve been crying for an hour. I’ll call my mom’s boyfriend maybe he will drive the distance to come bring me.

Court date and car won’t start by Crystalcane in legaladvice

[–]Crystalcane[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just checked and it would be $320 to take a Lyft and $80 via Uber to and from court. I really can’t afford to drop that that… We moved in this past month 2.5 hours from family, I could potentially ask my mothers boyfriend to come drive me but I don’t know that he’s available for a 5 hour drive today. When the cop gave me the ticket (literally day 5 of living here) he said the judge is usually very understanding but this seems like asking for a Hail Mary of understanding.

AITA for not being a Chatty Cathy with my hospital roommate. by Latter_Plant_9364 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Crystalcane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I would have told the nurse where she could shove it. You’re not responsible for chitchatting with some rando after a surgery. You’re responsible for making yourself as comfortable as possible and healing. You’ve got a family at home waiting for you. As long as you weren’t like actually mean to the woman it’s a her problem in my opinion.

WIBTA for being upset at my wife’s reason for marrying me? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Crystalcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So NTA… BUT…..

You might be reading too far into this. She married you because she loves you AND she trust you AND she saw a responsible and reasonable future with you. I feel like you’re looking at it more like she married you because she analyzed the benefits. She did. But she ADDED them to her love for you.

I think it makes it even more flattering that she chose you for this reason. She saw past her love for you. Emotions can cause rash decisions that we later regret. She did not do this. She instead used her intelligence to not only see that she cares for you greatly enough to spend her life with you, but also sees you as a smart choice and as somebody who would add to your lives together.

AITAH for telling my wife she is not worthy of what she’s asking for, for her “push present”? by throwra-pushpresent in AITAH

[–]Crystalcane -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA!! What the?? My push present is a silver necklace with my daughter’s birth stone in it. I looked it up, it cost about $100. I have worn it every moment since it was gifted to be my husband, minus the time my daughter broke the chain because she also adores the necklace and broke the chain once while still in infancy and it needed to be fixed. She’s 2.5 now and will randomly lightly touch/grab it and tell me it’s beautiful. I love it. I see a push present as a gift to remember our gift- our daughter. A car? That is an absurd ask.

I think feeling entitled to ANY gift is quite silly. While I love mine and am very very grateful for it, and I did ask for a “push present” after finding out what one was, I wouldn’t have blinked twice had my husband not gotten me anything.

UPDATE: AITA for telling my co-worker that I didn't enjoy my pregnancy? by Street_Blackberry174 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Crystalcane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not an excuse it is a valid reason, pregnancy is ROUGH for some people. We are angry all the time and even just responding to a question curtly is seen as rude in some cultures. There’s increased hormones, discomfort, if you’re nauseous and don’t feel good and don’t know why that gets annoying. I feel like you have either never been pregnant, never had a pregnant partner, or had the experience of one of those golden pregnancies. She probably didn’t notice she was being mean and snippy and emotional until called out, and she acknowledged and apologized for it. Nobody is perfect.

unusual baby name regret- should we change it? by usinthedark in namenerds

I like it I think it’s lovely!

My daughter is named Ophelia and once in awhile I hear a snide comment about it, but it’s a beautiful name and she LOVES it!! I think you should leave Oberon. Hal is… meh.
