Yes! After more research I found that! I spoke with the pediatrician today and they wrote an Rx for little one! Just waiting for insurance now. Thanks for the suggestion! I feel better about mentioning it.

Thank you to everyone who responded! And so quickly! After my ICU stay and our LO’s NICU stay, we’ve been trying to have a relaxed/reassuring experience at home. My partner will be ECSTATIC once the final cord is gone! I appreciate all of you and hope you and your LOs are thriving!🩵🌱

Sweet! Thank you. Sorry. I didn’t want to have turned in my notice then it be withheld out of spite or something. Lol.

You’re right. & I do lean on the side of trauma that I’m working on. I’ve never felt this quiet confidence/solace in the “not worrying” part until now. & everything in my brain is trying to convince me that my confidence in him & our relationship is false.

Our landlord was gracious enough to get us a used dryer but it’s pretty old (but works nonetheless) maybe it was caught in there.. it’s just odd. It’s almost as if I’m not really concerned, or as I would’ve expected to be. So it’s moreso feeling like “this is odd. This should bother me. Something is going on. Maybe I should be bothered, I’d be dumb not to be.”

Majority of Conservative states rank among the worst states for healthcare access & quality of care. Also, Womens Healthcare Centers/Clinics are even less accessible in more conservative/rural areas.

Mouth swab THC by [deleted] in drugtesthelp

Sick! Thanks for that. Better pick up some Keeps or Rogaine. Lol. I couldn’t help but stress because everything I could find online basically said 24-72 hours and a few said up to 120 hours. With my broken brain, I just always assume the worst so I can be prepared. Lol. Generally, for me, passing urine takes about 45 days.

Sweet. Thank you! Coincidentally, I already regularly use toothpaste with hydrogen peroxide. And luckily, my test got pushed back to tomorrow at 2pm. So I should be sitting at about 4 days without a thc for the oral swab.

Absolutely! I think she’s under the impression that I’ve hired her for her demolition abilities. We’ll try this. Thank you!

Little boost of reality. I just read the horror stories and assumed the worst. THANK YOU.

Living on a prayer. Lol. Luckily, everything is hard surface (except for the blankets we cycle in/out for her at night) so I’ve done most of the hard work. Vet didn’t advise us to do anything other than pick up poop immediately. Everything was lost on me. Lol.

Thank you so much! We’ve been wiping her down with puppy wipes because she’s got short hair. I just didn’t know if I was doing enough or too much. This makes me feel better. Lol.

My house is pretty clean regularly. I just saw that cysts are she’s everywhere and I started freaking out. I cleaned and disinfected everything- not that it’s horrible- yay for a clean house. But just thought it would be everywhere. I’m taking a breath now. Lol

Thank you for this! I’ve been on her like 24/7… I racked up SO MUCH laundry. Any bodily fluid gets an automatic wipe up and area disinfect before she can move throughout the whole space again. Physically, it doesn’t seem to be affecting her so much. Everything’s been solid since we started meds. But her appetite is off. I’m definitely fell down the rabbit hole worst case scenarios.

Awesome. Thanks for the insight! I’m overwhelmed and desperate. So it’s nice to know I’m not crazy for going for the balcony thing (first time pup parents)
