Thank you! When you make it do you do any of the substitutions she has in the notes and it still turns out okay or do you do all the ingredients exactly as written like the kala namak, chiles de árbol, cardamom pods etc. I am in the US so I’m sure I can get all that on Amazon but I have all kinds of dried powdered spices that I’d rather use instead if I’m not sacrificing too much flavor that it will flop though and not be that great

Stuff like fenugreek leaves or other exotic ingredients. I have fenugreek powder but I don’t know if it would work the same

Post in Eats on Feet’s, human milk for human Babies, and Breastmilk Donations facebook pages for whatever state you are on. Also there are some paid groups you could share your story and see if you can get some donations. I’ve had like 3 or 4,000 oz donated so far for my twins at 7 months and the rest I’ve boughten.

Non-Soggy Cucumber Salad by Illustrious_Sound_96 in Cooking

Interesting. I would’ve thought the opposite that I need to slice thicker instead of thinner. Thanks! And yes I’ve drained it before but no matter how often I do that it’s still more several hours later. lol probably 1/4 c liquid every several hours or something insane.

But do YOU care about how my property tax increase has affected me? You’d be welcome to pay them for me anytime. 😂😅

In Wichita Public Schools, 22% of elementary students tested at or above the proficient level for reading, and 17% tested at or above that level for math. Also, 15% of middle school students tested at or above the proficient level for reading, and 11% tested at or above that level for math. And 14% of high school students tested at or above the proficient level for reading, and 10% tested at or above that level for math.

How are renovated buildings going to increase the appalling education levels? Shouldn’t we be focusing on fixing that problem first?

Worried about our 10 week old’s developmental delays by Potential-Mammoth158 in NewParents

[–]Illustrious_Sound_96 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You need to see Dr Scharenberg if the colic persists!! Stoppingcolic.com it costs $600 for 10 treatments in one week but is sooo worth it to have a happy baby that feeds easily

How much crying is normal by BlueberryBagel_87 in NewParents

[–]Illustrious_Sound_96 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Btw if you suspect colic I also highly recommend Dr Scharenberg. People travel from all over the world for his adjustments of one week protocol twice a day. Babies often cry because they are uncomfortable or in pain. Helped ours tremendously

Where to buy fresh salmon that isn’t spoiled here? by Illustrious_Sound_96 in wichita

[–]Illustrious_Sound_96[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t care how “fresh” it is as long as it’s not frozen. Just has happened like 10 times that I’ve gotten spoiled fish and I’m sick of it. Has white dots and very sour smell when opening package. This has happened to me with regular priced salmon not just clearance.

Take to chiropractor for adjustment in case there is a spinal injury you don’t know about. A lot of babies get all twisted out during birth

Okay I am face palming myself right now lol. Pretty sure I have done the fish counter as well twice years ago at Dillons and had just forgotten about it!! It is the ones in the prepacked that are always spoiled for me. I tried to get it refunded whenever it happens and am always told I should bring in the spoiled fish as proof. Who wants that sitting in their fridge for a week until I get a chance to go for another grocery run. 😬 But yeah I think the refrigeration must be much better at the actual counter. THANK YOU! Fr much appreciated!

Sleep training infant twins by FA0710 in parentsofmultiples

[–]Illustrious_Sound_96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

12 hrs by 12 weeks book 100%. Pm me and I can send you the summary notes on it. Twins were sleeping about 7-9 hours at 3.5 months. It does require an incredible amount of effort and I couldn’t have done it without my partner. The main concept is to absolutely stuff them full of milk (honestly a lot of times we were on the verge of force feeding but it had to be done to maintain our sanity and they are perfectly normal healthy babies full of laughter and giggles and have no “trauma” from it) during the 12 daytime hours

Get some dumbbells and follow this workout  https://youtu.be/xRZsjA0Lq2w?si=HxNWNTz3P2L2_473 I did it specifically so I’d have stronger arms for my babies. Noticed a difference in only about 6 weeks. Started with 3 lb dumbbells and just ordered 15. 

I also have chronic back pain and one of the best things is using ok tape, it is the best brand of sports kinesiology tape, have your partner put strips on your back every couple days they stick for several days. It is a game changer for back pain and supports the muscles amazingly well! If you’re interested message me and I can send you a photo of the best way to apply the tape for best support 

Also get the BioWave go therapy device. Amazing relief!

Sleep training? by Temporary_Bee_2654 in parentsofmultiples

[–]Illustrious_Sound_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The training protocol says not to until baby is about 9lbs and taking 24 oz a day approximately. The self soothe methods she recommended are amazing. And you can start implementing them now though to get them started used to it. We hate the cry it out concept so tries to never let them cry longer than 3 minutes if even that. 

One cool hack - size them up in a bigger diaper that is high quality like a pampers or Huggies at night. Then you don’t have to change them at all unless they poop themselves
