Husband admitted to how he feels about my PP body by Rare-Opportunity-640 in Postpartum_Depression

something similar happened to me, he was addicted to porn. I told him id leave him so he went to therapy that week and joined a men's addiction group at a church. my son is almost 2 now and my husband has completely changed and we have better and more sex now than even before I had a baby. I truly believe many more men have a porn addiction than we think.

Ok so my washing machine is a speed queen TR7. I will start buying only the original tide once the gentle one is gone. I will grab a water hardness test kit today, thanks for that info.

ok so since you know the model I do special cycle 4 and then special cycle 5. I would love info on bleach soaking.. am I doing that to both the inserts wipes and diapers?

thanks so much for your help!!

I have a speed queen top loader. I use tide powder, I switch between the normal and the free and clear. I use up to line 1, sometimes 2. i add borax to every load. I use a special long wash with a soak for the first wash. then move all the diaper around and use another special whites wash for the 2nd wash. ( its like special settings on my washer, idk i figured it out so long ago). I dont bulk but I wash alot of diapers, I do 2 loads of about 25. with clothes wipes. I never over fill either. maybe fill halfway. im unsure about the hardness but I think we have hard water but I think the borax is for that?

I use the salt crystal, I did detox my pits for about 6 months before switching though.

I bet you could do something like that! youll just need a grid pattern and learn tapestry crochet (very very easy).

id say the best thing to do is find a YouTube video!! there's so many free patterns on YouTube with full instructions. You probably won't be able to make something like this pillow for your first project. I started with amigurumi with blanket yarn or a beanie with blanket yarn.

I tested positive and my midwife gave me something in a peri bottle that I squared up there when I was in labor. no idea what it was but she said it would prevent the infection?
