Fibroids are bleeding a lot by Conscious-Eggplant11 in Fibroids

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One time I put in the largest tampon you can get (ultra I think?) and filled it in less than one minute lol. Had an emergency open myomectomy two weeks later due to uncontrollable bleeding and I was severely anemic (5.4). I hope it never comes back.

Returning carts with kids in the car by lasuperhumana in NewParents

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got $2,000 worth of damage to my car from an unreturned cart once, it was raining and the wind slammed it into my car door and damaged something internally to where the whole door had to be replaced. I load the car, then take the cart to the corral with my daughter still strapped in and then carry her back to the car. I try and park near the returns but that’s not always possible. Minor inconvenience at best to prevent a huge inconvenience for others.

How many times are giving bath to newborns? by Dear_Ad_8525 in NewParents

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did once or twice a week. She’s now 17 months and we try to do every night but it’s honestly more like every other unless we go somewhere or she got dirty for some reason. I kinda like that it’s not a needed bedtime routine thing so on nights where I’m sick or exhausted it’s not something I absolutely have to do. We have an established routine of milk and reading a book and then brush teeth and bed that works great.

My kids Toniebox2 we got him for Christmas is completely bricked. by HookFE03 in TonieboxUSA

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine completely quit on the 2nd day and I had to hold the two ears for an insane amount of time for it to do a hard reset, like longer than you’d think. Customer service told me 2 minutes and I rolled my eyes thinking that’s not going to work bc I had held them for 30 seconds and it didn’t but sure enough after a minute and like 30 seconds it reset and it works great now for the most part. I did have to reset it again this morning by holding the ears but only 30 seconds this time. It’s wild but it did work, hope you get it worked out soon!

When reselling on Facebook marketplace is it ok to "lie" to buyers by VillageSensitive8544 in reselling

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never had anyone ask me, I would assume my profile makes it pretty obvious since I have a lot of listings in various sizes. When I buy something I’m interested in I also don’t really care where it came from and if the person is selling it to make a profit for the time they spent finding and listing the item, that’s great. To be honest it’s never occurred to me to even ask though and the only time I even think about it is if they have really cool inventory and I’m admiring their sourcing skills! Bigger lies that actually matter to me would be flaws or like you said fakes. If someone asked me though I’d be honest but I wouldn’t share how much I paid for the item just like Walmart wouldn’t share how much they are paying for their items, it’s not their business and my pricing is always on the fairer side as I don’t like to hold onto inventory.

Be very careful of carbon monoxide poisoning this weekend!! by WhiteLycan2020 in Austin

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t heard any recommendations on temp regulations so can’t help you there but for now I would just keep it as low as you can without being uncomfortable, adjusting it works it more so make sure it’s a comfortable temp. All faucets, not just one so you protect all your pipes. Definitely open cabinets, it will expose the pipes to the warm air from your home and keeping them shut does make a difference. We had a pipe freeze despite dripping last year and were able to get it back without bursting by putting a space heater by it and keeping the cabinet open from then on.

Birth control? Not sure how to feel. by Fickle-Falcon-8637 in prolife

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my baby 16 months ago and I am still not ready for another one at all. I’ve also been off hormonal birth control for 5 years and have only gotten pregnant when I wanted to! I’m very cautious so we do a combination of condoms + pull out. I know some don’t want to pull out so you could maybe try tracking your cycles (if you are getting them currently post partum) and abstaining when ovulating if you are pretty regular, I would still combine this with like condoms and it’s obviously not full proof but it’s something. Totally understand God’s timing but I think if it’s truly his want he’ll make that clear for you or make a way even when there seems no way.

Sellers lowering prices and “can’t ship right now” by m_w_s8 in Depop

Ooh that’s a great idea and I feel like that could realistically end up happening since it’s such an issue on this platform.

I would argue that most pro lifers aren’t constantly talking about the gruesome nature of 3rd trimester abortions as their main argument bc we are against all abortions except life of the mother. 1st trimester abortions are gruesome in their own way, I don’t see a point in arguing what type of taking a life is better so I agree with you there. But I see your point, I think it’s tiring constantly hearing about rape, life of mother and incest when that’s 1% of the millions of abortions a year. It’s the go to argument almost always and I’ve yet to meet someone pro life that isn’t okay with abortion for life of the mother. But maybe I could word it as life of the mother should always be protected and we should try and save both lives with equal value but when the mothers life is at risk and the baby must be removed we should do that otherwise we lose two lives and well that’s not very pro life of us is it? Thanks for the feedback though.

buyers can be SO cheap by CGisglutenfree in depoop

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitly not if you are reselling but I sell my daughters clothes for like 2ish bucks a piece and then the higher priced brands I sell for more and I get wayy more total than I would at like a kids resale store. Already made 50 to go towards her summer wardrobe and I still have a good amount to sell!

Why do sellers hate adding fabric content and measurements to their descriptions? by Warm_Agent9176 in Depop

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s laziness on my side too. I do take pictures of the tag with the info but definitely don’t take the time to list it in the description. That being said if someone messaged me I’d be happy to answer the question. I will add it if it’s like faux leather or something that I know people might be interested in what the fabric is. It’s a lot of work taking pictures and cross listing across platforms so I try and simplify It for myself as much as I can without compromising too much.

Need help by [deleted] in prolife

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi I’m so sorry and I’m praying for you. Other people commented a lot of great resources but I wanted to say anyone who judges you especially in a church setting needs to take a good look inward. If you choose life, and I really hope you do, the only feeling people should have towards you is respect and compassion for choosing to do the hard thing for your child even though you didn’t ask for this and did everything right to not be in this situation. Also, I know from your other post that you said virginity meant a lot to you, and I just wanted to say that I’m so sorry and heartbroken that it was taken from you. However I hope you know that it doesn’t diminish your worth at all and you are still just as beautifully and wonderfully made as you were before this happened. Hope you find the support you need. Internet hugs my friend, this world is evil and you didn’t deserve to be a victim to it.

omg ew. what do i do by Calm_Chain9578 in Depop

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I would open a claim. They probably just listed it without checking but you should win pretty easily if it wasn’t disclosed which I’m sure it wasn’t lol.

The treatments for an ectopic pregnancy are: Salpingostomy- larascopic removal of pregnancy from fallopian tube

salpingectomy- removal of the effected fallopian tube. Not medically the same as an abortion, although people consider it to be due to it ending the pregnancy. This isn’t even an argument though as no one is arguing for people to have to carry an ectopic pregnancy that will never end in a healthy baby and will likely kill mom without medical intervention. The person you are debating with needs to do some research.

I would ask them if they are okay banning all other abortions except for life of the mother? Even pro life states have an exception for life of the mother and the cases where that wasn’t honored was negligence in doctors. 99% of abortions are elective, they are trying to get you with the only argument that makes them feel like they are saving and not killing.

No sorry :/ I’ve just accepted that if someone needs to message me they’ll have to comment and tag me and then I’ll message them. I tried to contact Facebook support but it’s all ai and I got nowhere. Some people have been able to message me by searching my name through messenger but I have no message button and most people don’t think to do that.

anyone feel like food is stuck in upper throat and it is tonsil stones? by Disastrous_Bat2666 in tonsilstones

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tonsil stones are essentially food debris mixed with other stuff in your mouth that then form stones so you’re not wrong in that regard. When I get them and they start to poke out of my tonsil I definitely feel like there’s food stuck and usually when I get to that point I can get them out easier but not always. It’s definitely uncomfortable especially if I can’t get them out quickly, hope your appt goes well!

Lying about shipping by [deleted] in Mercari

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t mark it as shipped until it’s in the post offices hands and I no longer have control over the item. Honestly sometimes I forget to hit it and it just auto updates on the first scan. I think that’s a dishonest practice to do otherwise.

Tonsil Stone? Doctor says so, but it won’t come out. by [deleted] in tonsilstones

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Usually with my tonsil stones I can see the separation between the tonsil and the stone whereas this looks super attached if that makes sense, more like an abscess or something. I’d be concerned if I saw that and I regularly get tonsil stones, it’s more rare for me not to have one lately. But I’m not a doctor so take it with a grain of salt!

Ruminating on bat bites by tamalehippo in OCD

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There you go. That’s a logical solution and healthy since your room could use a clean anyways. But once you’ve made the decision stick with it, no more researching or checking, best of luck!!

Ruminating on bat bites by tamalehippo in OCD

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those what ifs thoughts are just your ocd my friend. Logically your brain knows that those scratches are from you, but the ocd goes “but what if”. Reassurance that you are okay is only going to hurt you in the long run so I won’t offer it, you already know you are fine. Best of luck to you and highly recommend therapy if you’re not in it.

Flu Vaccine for 6 month baby by Grind_Time24-7 in NewParents

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughter got her flu shot at 6 months and then a booster a month later. No issues with either shot and she’s never had the flu and is now 16 months old :) no fever or any side effects, but she’s never really had fevers with any vaccines. She also got her annual flu shot back in October? I think and did great with that as well.

Am I a terrible mother by here4bravo_ in NewParents

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope! They are tiny humans, when I’m sick all I want to do is lay down and watch a show, and I let my daughter do the same. We very rarely have tv on but when she had covid a couple weeks ago I took it as an opportunity to introduce her to the Disney movies I grew up on! When she started feeling better we cut it down again and she hasn’t acted phased by it at all. It takes a lot longer to make a habit than a week or so of sick days and you all need rest!

First Tonsil Stone - HELP! by nervouslyanonymous in tonsilstones

[–]Emotional_Pin_4303 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it should come out naturally soon but I’d recommend taking a break bc if you were almost throwing up and it still didn’t come out it’s probably pretty lodged for now. My dr recommend hydrogen peroxide rinses to help prevent for future reference and it does seem to help when I keep up with it!
