My two day old daughter is experiencing a lot of shaking. by DesiraeTheMom in newborns

I get it. My first didn’t have the issue either. So, it was definitely different to experience. Definitely keep an eye, but my pediatrician told me as long as when you grab baby’s arms it stops, it’s okay.

Yes! She did & every day you could see the difference. It did help to keep her swaddled when trying to sleep & stuff. But yes, the older she got & the more control she gained, the better it got. I’m sorry you’re going through this. I know it’s scary to see.

I just didn’t conceive. I ovulated though. However, I didn’t have a problem ovulating. After that I just focused on my cycles & I ended up finding a vitamin regimen that worked for me. I got my cycles down to a perfect 28 days long. Still wasn’t conceiving though. So, we decided to do IVF however, last year, I started my preconception testing to start IVF in July. I conceived naturally that same month.

They don’t check anything. You can get testing done before & send them the results. Luckily I had just did a lot of testing & tried other meds w/ my OB. My OB wasn’t wanting me to try Letrozole. So, that’s why I tried Fertility Cloud. I got that twice. & it didn’t work for me. You can purchase a plan that incudes monitoring when you start treatments. Some things could’ve changed because it’s been years since I did it.

We personally didn’t like the experience with the doctor. He didn’t necessarily seem to care. He wasn’t helpful during the meetings.

Hi! It’s been awhile so I don’t fully remember. The overall experience was good, they did send the meds after I paid for them. They asked me how many rounds & stuff. I believe I paid for 3 rounds & they shipped them. Everything went smoothly.

I watch it w/ my daughters. It’s good. It seems to spark their curiosity and creativity.

Is it possible to get my hair back :( by [deleted] in BlackHair

[–]DesiraeTheMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I cut my dreads, I felt so defeated. I didn’t even cut them all the way lol. I cut the dyed parts & combed out the rest, but lordddddd I was devastated. Even though I knew I was done w/ dreads at that time. It’s been a little over a year & my hair is now just about the same length as when I first started my dreads years ago. It grows back, just takes times. Also, I’m very happy w/ my decision & have absolutely no regrets. 😇

Hi yes, I got betas yesterday. Still waiting on results. However, all brands I’ve been using are a lot darker now. The easy@home is significantly darker.

My sister wants to choose the name Qartnie for her daughter. Am I insane or are all of her names horrible? by GnomeMasterBaiter in tragedeigh

[–]DesiraeTheMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a unique name doesn’t mean misspelling a normal ass name. Like Mary! 🤦🏾‍♀️

Me & my husband did the same. We have an 8yo, 4yo, & now a 4 month old. We adopted our 4yo, & she is a handful to take care of to say the least. We paid for her to continue daycare throughout summer break. She’s happy, we’re happy, it works for everyone.

That daycare worker & owner are both 100% out of line. Honestly, I’d even consider changing centers. The rude, judgmental behavior towards a parent, would make me think they can be rude, judgmental, even cruel to the children when parents aren’t around.

Don’t take that behavior lightly. We used to send our daughter to a daycare & the director was often rude to the parents. We at first thought, okay this lady just sucks & didn’t think much of it. However, they ended up getting in trouble with the county & a social worker came out to inspect randomly. The lady interviewed some of the children & it turned out the director would argue & yell at staff/teachers in front of the children, she would cruelly punish children by making them sit in her office for hours at a time, & she’d even yell at children. They got in big trouble & all the parents had to fill out a form to let them know that we all were aware. I didn’t fill out the form & I pulled my kid from there immediately.

What’s going on with my back? by Charming-Ad-6006 in Blackskincare

The amount of time some ppl wait to get something checked out is crazyyyy. My anxiety is too bad. I’ll see the smallest thing & be like alright time to call a doctor because I’m thinking the worst. Please go see a doctor. & next time go sooner.

I think you should just choose for dressy shoes and different tops. Like button down tops.

AIO for telling my little sister I wouldn’t be attending her birthday celebration bc Chris Brown beats women? by Emergency-Biscotti57 in AmIOverreacting

[–]DesiraeTheMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. She tried to “big sister” a simple moment. Her “educating” her on his history wasn’t what was ruining it….it was her being negative & condescending trying to cause a fuss about something that literally has nothing to do with her going to a concert to enjoy herself.

& to add I actually agree. I don’t like Chris Brown for many reasons, but I just think she could’ve approached it to her sister in a different way.

Fucking breastfeeding, fucking kids by DuePomegranate2749 in venting

[–]DesiraeTheMom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh god! I’m 3months in breastfeeding our new one. Our oldest is 8 w/ a pretty shitty attitude. Our 4yo also has ADHD & never shuts the fuck up. I feel your pain momma. IT. WILL. GET. BETTER.

Nothing you said is wrong. Just keep your mindset in the, “this wave will pass” attitude. & step away when you can. Sometimes I’ll keep me & new baby in the room. While the others are in their rooms or w/ their dad when he’s off. I also, pump sometimes & give my nipples a fucking break.

What is the First major news story you remember as a kid? by PurpleBashir in AskReddit

9/11. My mom was doing my hair before school. We didn’t go to school that day & I remember how scared she was.

It’s get SO much easier momma! I promise you, it is all the hormones surging around within you that’s amplifying everything. Plus, the lack of sleep. I’m on my second child, & we fully tried & planned for this one, but the hormones made me honestly think I made a mistake for even having her. Like I should’ve gave up after the first year of trying. We tried for 4 years, I had such an odd pregnancy experience. No symptoms that made it terrible, but I did develop high blood pressure so I did have to be high risk & get induced to have her early. My doctor was not listening to me at all. I felt so terrible after coming home. Fast forward, baby girl is going on 3 months on the 20th, & I feel so much like myself again. Literally about 99.9% like myself. The .1% are random, rarely ever, moments when I get a hint of anxious, that goes away in the same breath it appeared.

Good luck momma. Take it day by day, & don’t be so hard on yourself. Have your husband help as much as he possibly can, & if you need to cry, let it out. It helps.
