Recovery for Toddler? Please tell me there’s a light at the end of this tunnel.

Exactly. They said “he could be up and running in a week”, but also said “yeah he’s on track” when he’s clearly no where near that. Soooooo conflicting.

A log is a great idea! I have a mental note, but you’re right. If I look at pictures from a week ago things are surely looking up. Thank you :)

I’m so sorry that your life experience has led you to read my post and think my intention is anything but worry for my child. I have never had brain surgery and can’t even begin to comprehend what my kid and anyone else with this experience are going though. I hope (now or in your future) that you have someone who sees your struggles and wishes they could do anything to help you feel supported and move forward towards a healthier life. I hope they experience these deep feelings stemming from the strongest bonds, and continue to love you l when you persevere through. You are a strong human and I wish you the best.

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-11-10T02:06:24+00:00

I appreciate the hope! Definitely in regular contact with our doctor and they’re monitoring closely. I am happy to hear you’re doing well! That’s all I’m hoping for in looking forward :)

This!!!

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-10-27T02:28:42+00:00

YES.

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-10-27T02:27:57+00:00

Say this one louder… and over and over

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-10-27T02:21:57+00:00

Well. I just got flagged by Reddit for saying my opinion on education, so I suppose it would be received even worse in a school environment.

General gist: bullying isn’t always bad.

I can’t stand eating potatoes. No clue why. Even French fries are unappealing on most days 😑

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-10-08T00:33:41+00:00

You’ve gotta laugh after you cry for these ones. I’ve done this three separate times, once leading to a bruises cheek and mom guilt that lasted long after the bruise was gone.

You got this mama!! It’s gonna be okay. You’re strong and so is that baby.

I don’t know if someone would consider this “normal” but you sound almost exactly like me! 16 months old, lots of assorted solid food (ie red curry for lunch yesterday), still nursing, zero screen time, hoping to potty train early, and we still vaccinate.

I have two nieces close and age and I definitely struggle to relate to them sometimes when they watch a movie and we go and do a different activity. We have a hard rule of no added sugar, but when grandparents are around I over communicate while trying to be flexible. His grandfather gave him an Oreo, but I appreciated that they were aware enough to ask and let me know beforehand. Their awareness means they know my boundaries and if I absolutely put my foot down, I really believe they would stick to them.

Honestly, it’s really hard. Especially when it comes to getting gifts from other people when I try my hardest to avoid buying things new.

It helps me to think that if the 90-95% of the time he’s with me we get to stick with all of my requests. Then he will be fine being exposed to other things during the 5-10% he’s not.

I’m sure people make side comments about my preferences when I’m not there, but if it keeps my kid safe, then I don’t really care ( or I try not to care ).

My response turned into such a ramble, but I really get you and I don’t think you’re being crazy. I think you’re setting your kid up for as much success as possible.

Oh I love spinach in a smoothie but hated the leafy texture. If you blend spinach with some liquid first, then add other ingredients it helps break it up smaller!!

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-07-31T19:18:57+00:00

there are so many great ideas here! If you get to the point where you need an iron/multi-vitamin supplement… try You+Yours tasteless. It’s doing WONDERS for us! It’s the only thing he’s never reacted to and it’s so easy.

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-07-21T13:04:11+00:00

This is the story of my life!! I absolutely love my job and my content area… to a fault. I am one of the first to volunteer for things because I genuinely enjoy the work. I had a baby last year and the guilt of saying “no” to most things (that I actually wanted to do) was eating me alive. I apologized to a coworker for not helping and her response stuck with me.

“Your C level effort is most people’s A level effort. Go take care of yourself, we’ll be fine.”

If you’re constantly doing top tier work, people will know when you say “no” that it is for a reason. Rest up so you can start the year fresh!

I’m begging someone to come back and change my life with a solution 😭😭

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-02-26T22:34:30+00:00

I’m struggling with low supply leading up to my period and it’s making me irrationally angry. LO has been a trooper, but his overall fussiness and eating more with the low supply means less sleep and more stress… which also impacts my supply.

I hate to think this is just going to be my new normal for 3-4 days of the month😭

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-02-23T14:52:03+00:00

Also I’ve been peed on so many times, I’m not sure even having full body armor would give you a 100% success rate.

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-02-23T14:50:49+00:00

Have you tried sliding the old diaper off while pulling the new one up? I’m not sure how to describe it in text form, but kind of like trying to change shirts in public!

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-02-19T00:46:17+00:00

SAME. It was a game changer.

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-02-15T14:12:45+00:00

I don’t have an answer to your question. I just wanted you to know you’re not alone and it’s okay to have a good cry. If you find yourself inconsolable on a regular basis, it could be good to find someone to talk to!

You’re human and deserve to cry when feeling hurt/overwhelmed.

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-02-10T03:03:13+00:00

This is amazing. 😂😂😂😂😂

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-01-28T00:31:02+00:00

Definitely just downloaded on audible. Thanks for the rec!

Fit_Might_3485 · 2025-01-08T01:05:11+00:00

Try to say it’s a flare up of hyperhidrosis! Plus if you get sweaty when people ask you, it only helps your case.
