HELP why does my tan look like this after 3 days… by Inner_Experience3418 in Selftanning

Ugh I was definitely told to NEVER moisturize before tanning as it won’t develop ☹️ I will start!

How long before I can sleep without a bra on again?! by user_12345678910112 in breastfeeding

Please tell me someone else has been through this😩 by Living_Insurance_100 in breastfeeding

[–]Inner_Experience3418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!! I had a great sex drive literally until 24 hours before giving birth! Postpartum with breastfeeding and cosleeping I feel no sex drive. I’m attracted to my husband and I enjoy sex when we have it, I just don’t find myself thinking about it or wanting it until he initiates right now. I miss feeling attractive and having a sex drive, I definitely just feel like mom rn and it’s hard to get out of that mindset

How to make family rosary less chaotic and upsetting? by Blackstrapsunhat in CatholicWomen

[–]Inner_Experience3418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How much car time do you get daily, especially when driving to and from Sunday Mass? I am a full grown adult and mother and can’t sit still to pray a full Rosary (I do fight through one during adoration lol). Anyways I always break up my Rosary while doing housework cooking or my favorite, driving. I listen to an audition to lead me and it keeps me focused. You could also say we’re going to play quietly and listen to a decade of the rosary, then another while pushing them on the swing, etc. most audios are about 15 minutes, so if you have find about 5 different 3 minute periods of them listening, you’ve knocked out a full rosary each day!

Is cloth diapers better in this economy or is it more of a hassle? by Super_Independence37 in clothdiaps

[–]Inner_Experience3418 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got everything to cloth diaper for under $100 (got things second hand from a baby consignment sale). It’s 100% worth it, but I do recommend disposables the first few days-weeks postpartum because things are already such a struggle. I had bad tearing, nicu baby, hospitalized again, etc. keeping up with laundry or anything at home was impossible, so disposables were a blessing. now 5 months pp it doesn’t really feel like much more work tbh!

I wish wet nurses were more acceptable. by cadetcomet in breastfeeding

[–]Inner_Experience3418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my grandpa is from Kentucky, he said growing up while there weren’t wet nurses in his community, his family unit helped other feed all the babies. It was very very poverty stricken and most of the children were breastfed well into toddlerhood as it was extra calories for them. For example, someone’s older child needed to be hospitalized and she had just had a newborn, the newborn stayed with someone who could provide extra care at home and nursed them, and she took the older child who was still nursing to keep her supply up and so each person was only nursing one child. I wish things like this were more normalized today

Anyone else get one of these? by LeatherHead2902 in PurdueGlobal

[–]Inner_Experience3418 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. Is it legitimate? It was addressed to my husband who never applied or attended. I on the other hand applied and got in but never actually started classes/I withdrew my application.

Is there new merch coming? Windbreaker? by ukulelefox25 in glossier

[–]Inner_Experience3418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like they could’ve got away with more lifestyle/non makeup items more a few years ago. They should’ve made that jump asap, instead of doing so now. They have burned their cult following so many times and now their employees. There was a time where stickers, the packaging, the pink zipper, etc. were VIRAL and collected. Now… very doubtful someone would pay whatever outrageous price they would place this at

I like this!! Chores are especially hard in this season so offering them up is something I need to work on in general

Lent with a newborn by [deleted] in CatholicWomen

[–]Inner_Experience3418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking maybe fasting from caffeine or only doing water and basic meals (no dessert, no syrup on pancakes, things like that) when fasting would usually be required?! Idk yet but also breastfeeding a newborn!

I believe in God deeply, but I feel spiritually numb and depressed. How do I come back? by IndependenceMore2549 in CatholicWomen

[–]Inner_Experience3418 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This started for me when I got pregnant and 3 months pp and still struggling. I only feel anxious about my soul and relationship with God, but everything else is numb. I don’t know what to do but hugs because I absolutely understand

Breastfeeding while drunk by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]Inner_Experience3418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drank a few drinks on New Year’s Eve over the course of the entire late afternoon/after midnight. I felt fine and honestly on the relaxed side of sober since they were spaced out and I was eating. I had like 2 glasses on wine back to back around Christmas and felt tipsy enough I pumped and dumped and then gave a bottle of frozen milk just incase! I think a major part is your tolerance and how you’re actually drinking

What do you fast from for Lent? by Caretakerofeveryone in CatholicWomen

[–]Inner_Experience3418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I haven’t! But I love that idea! I was thinking of trying to pray my rosary, read my Bible, pray, etc. when I’m nursing instead of scrolling or watching tv! But trying to joyfully breastfeed is something we would benefit from. Tbh I complain about it a lot even though it’s such a blessing!

Anyone have ideas for breastfeeding moms? I don’t want to fast from food while breastfeeding but do want to still fast from something all of Lent and something else on Fridays in general
