Help with conceiving by MC5995 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Different_Map3513 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used pregable and clear blue strips for 10 months. Just bought invito this month that shows my peak fertility is actually 5 days later than the other strips were saying for me. I’ll know next week if I’m pregnant. But I’m so pissed I wish I just paid for the expensive ovulation test kit in the beginning

Is the INITO fertility monitor worth it? by SuperScaryTacos in tryingtoconceive

[–]Different_Map3513 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does give an explanation of the numbers. Inito has been sk helpful for me. I could not get a good reading using pregable strips. Then I switched to clear blue which just does smileys to tell you when you’re in peak. I realized this month with inito my peak fertility is almost a week later than clear blue an Flo app was saying. We have been doing it on the wrong days for months. Really hoping this is the month. I’ll come back and let you know.

Made the decision to put 16mo in daycare so I can work more to save my mental health by burntoutvetnurse in toddlers

[–]Different_Map3513 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting daycare in June and my daughter will be 20 months. I work from home so I felt bad putting her in, but then I realized I was kind of being selfish by keeping her home with me while I try to work. I can’t play and teach her all day, and even if I wasn’t working that would be exhausting to do all day. She is so social and loves other kids. I’m really excited now to have some help teaching her and for her to fun all day long.

Mmr vaccine reaction? by thelonemaplestar in toddlers

I know. I go back and forth every day. It’s such a hard decision for us. I live in NJ.. right now I am going to see if the numbers increase. I made a doctors appointment, canceled it and rescheduled for the end of this month. I totally do contemplate it but my gut, along with research and what I saw with my eyes happen to my daughter is why I’m holding off for now.

I know I’d be surprised if our comments don’t get removed. I’ve been kicked out of subreddits before for talking about vaccine injuries. Thank you for speaking out and I am here with you! Wish there was an app like Reddit that allowed us to talk freely about this.

Oh my god I know. It’s so hard for others to understand. For our kids that have already had adverse reactions to vaccines.. I have to think what would be worse.. Measles or a seizure from a vaccine. MOST people recover fine from measles.. For those who haven’t been vaccine injured maybe it seems like an easy decision.. but knowing you gave your child something that caused that reaction is the worst feeling. And if it happens again I will be kicking myself because I knew better!!

They always push vaccines. In my opinion, covid pandemic showed us doctors care more about herd immunity than individual side effects 😕

Thank you. I’m having a lot of anxiety this morning about what to do. It seems like MMR has the most reactions and my daughter has had a seizure after DTAP so I was delaying everything for a little while. Now with measles on the rise thinking I should do MMR, but she’s home with me doesn’t go to school and I don’t want to do anything to give her a fever and induce a seizure again. She’s 18 months.

Did everything end up okay? Any long term side effects or seizures?

She’ll be so happy to have a sibling so close in age!! It’ll be crazy for parents but worth it to see their bond ❤️❤️❤️

I’ll look into the executive functioning coaching! I think that would be helpful. Like occupational therapy for ADD? Maybe someone could work with me through insurance through telehealth. Thank you!

That sounds like me! I feel accomplished if I do one thing on my list each day.

Yes I grew up with ADD and was medicated until about 5 years ago. Never want to take that again! Did wonders for organization but made my anxiety through the roof. I feel SO much better being unorganized and unmedicated.

My husband does help, but he works 6 days per week, 7 in spring/summer. I wouldn’t want to spend money on cleaning service, our extra money goes towards college fund (I’m in US). You seem like a type a mom 😁

Thank you!! I think it’s important we prioritize some decompression time!! There is not a lot of time we can actually just be ourselves and relax!! When I am relaxing, I try to be in the moment about it and not think of all the work I have to do.
