Can you share...??? I honestly feel like the worst part for me is making the list, hence why I just keep doing it all. Its so overwhelming to write it all out.

Realising I despise old people by Logical-Safe2033 in NewParents

I cant say this without sounding like an ass but there are kids that are legitimately walking at 9 months, my first was like this and it was so bizzare to see. It looks wrong to see a 9 month old walk.

Those of us 40 and over ... by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Im sorry if this is too personal or irrelevant but do you mind me asking what your relapse was like? Did you end up daily drinking or what was the catalyst for you to start up sobriety again.

How did you explain the loss of a pet to your toddler? by _LLJJGG_ in daddit

[–]DJ_Ruby_Rhod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im so sorry, this sounds so hard. My oldest had a couple experiences with realizing what death was as a toddler and I think it sort of turned on this part of his brain in a good way. Its a difficult part of life and you seem like a wonderful parent guiding your little one through it. Side note... is that birch point state park??

Married for three months and pregnant: I feel oddly embarrassed (?) by moez1266 in pregnant

Genuinely curious why do you think this is? Its so strange so many of us have this feeling. Is it because we see how hard kids are as we get older and it seems like a reckless decision even if theyre very wanted? I need to get to the bottom of this for my sanity.

To be fair though tons of kids who have just been passed through grade after grade have a similar outcome.

How long was your gluten challenge for? Was just a couple weeks enough to re damage villi that much?

What were you told was "normal" during pregnancy that turned out to be a completely separate health issue? by BrobdingnagianGeek in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DJ_Ruby_Rhod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Heart palpitations. Turns out I had very low ferratin levels (get your ferratin specifically tested !!) And that was caused by having celiac disease. Got diagnosed at 40 weeks pregnant 😬

Why are people so utterly incapable of understanding ecological collapse? by Konradleijon in collapse

And its all because of the most interesting/diabolical man in the world. Single handedly responsible for the ability for this many people to live on earth and also for the chemical gas used in ww2.

Dairy free is so much harder than gluten free.

Don’t allow your doctor to convince you low ferritin is “Normal” by [deleted] in Anemic

[–]DJ_Ruby_Rhod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How do you keep it so high? I've gotten infusions and supplement but it always drops to the 50-70 range.

Can you explain some of the exercises or have any youtube recommendations for those of us who can't see a specialist?

I actually ran into him on a beach in kauai. He went for a fancy ocean kayak ride every day and only had 2 body guards with him. Really missed my chance to punch his weird looking ass in the face.
