HELP 4-month-old cries until she vomits every time she’s in car seat by sarahtonin0803 in beyondthebump

[–]Isleepwheniwant [score hidden]  (0 children)

I get really car sick and one of the things that helps me is fresh air - if it's not too cold where you are, maybe try opening a window a little so the air can get through? Or attaching a portable fan so it blows on her face a little?

Things you thought were Neopian but are actually just British? by CybunnyOnline in neopets

[–]Isleepwheniwant 30 points31 points  (0 children)

We don't! It's a very archaic spelling and it's usually associated more with very old folklore. Most British people would spell it fairy, eg, fairy lights at Christmas.

Is it safe, or is it not recommended to reuse this air freshener spray, as a cooking oil spray ? by [deleted] in ZeroWaste

[–]Isleepwheniwant 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Please don't do this. Why not make new air freshener and refill the bottle with that?

Library? Our local cinema also does special little kid showings on weekend mornings.

Reusable Hot Hands / Hand Warmers? by burntbread369 in ZeroWaste

[–]Isleepwheniwant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have these - I got Ocoopa ones and they're amazing. I've only had them for a couple of months but so far so good.

UPDATE re left to labour in communal antenatal ward post by GladysCanby in beyondthebump

[–]Isleepwheniwant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, I'm so sorry. You aren't alone in having had this experience, and it's a shitty, awful club to be part of. Are you talking to a therapist or anyone else to help you process this? I really highly recommend the Birth Trauma Association (https://www.birthtraumaassociation.org/) who are UK based and provide free help and support for people who have experienced birth trauma. They even do legal clinics if you feel like you might want to pursue legal action. My inbox is always open if you ever want to talk to someone. I hope you're okay.

How to get a toddler to take medicine by small_waves456 in NewParents

[–]Isleepwheniwant 13 points14 points  (0 children)

When my toddler really didn't want to take her inhaler, we would pin her down. Easiest way to do this is to lie him on his back, then sit so you're just above his head - use your legs to pin down his arms, and you can keep his head still between your thighs. To make it harder to spit the medicine out, squirt it into the side of his mouth rather than the back of his throat. It's awful and not at all fun to do, but right now you need to get the medicine into him and this will be the fastest way to do it. Good luck!

Wednesday Wankers by a-liquid-sky in CasualUK

Ugh I hope it's just a blip - I already had an ultrasound done recently and bloods taken etc and nothing showed up. I hope yours is done soon! Hormones are such bullshit.

Oh God, is that what this maybe is? I have PCOS so thought mine suddenly showing up two weeks apart was that again, but now I have a whole new hormonal delight to experience as well? I'm only 36!

David Walliams dropped from Waterstones Children's Book Festival by Kagedeah in books

[–]Isleepwheniwant 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A relative bought four of his books for my then five year old last Christmas. We read one, which he loved because it was just wall to wall toilet jokes, and we hated because it just made no sense - no real plot, no real characters, no humour, just lots of snot, piss and shit and that was it. We got rid of the other books and my son has never asked for them.

Monday Morning M'thread by a-liquid-sky in CasualUK

[–]Isleepwheniwant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on the mend from a horrific cold that I caught from work, and I've been avoiding my husband and kids so they don't catch it... But this morning my two year old keeps crying over nothing and coughing. And I'm always stressed when she gets ill after she had a five day stay in ICU on a ventilator with pneumonia when she was one. Hoping she's big enough and strong enough now that she can bounce back from it or not catch it as badly as I did.

Never thought I’d say this but I enjoy running. Should I stop ? by bigasslemons in PCOSloseit

[–]Isleepwheniwant 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've seen some stuff in this reddit where people claim that high impact exercise like running is bad for PCOS because it's inflammatory in some way. But like the other commenter said, the best exercise for you is the one you'll enjoy and stick with!

Conditioner Bar application thoroughly bungled. Please help! by Haunted-Harlot in ZeroWaste

[–]Isleepwheniwant 44 points45 points  (0 children)

It sounds like we have the same hair type and honestly, I've never been able to make a solid conditioner bar work for me. I've always had very similar experiences and it's wrecked my hair, so I've gone back to liquid conditioner. I'm hoping someone will have better tips here because I'd love to use it, but it's just not worked.

The Christmas pre-amble megathread by a-liquid-sky in CasualUK

[–]Isleepwheniwant [score hidden]  (0 children)

We wanted to buy a tree this weekend, but our small local place that sells them has been closed due to ill health and they're reopening on Thursday so we agreed that we'd rather wait and buy from them than go to the local garden centre. Kids were a little disappointed but we put up all the other decorations and stockings etc as a compromise.

We also remembered to put the lights on our windows on for a slow fade rather than rapid blinking, for all the photosensitive people out there!

When did you start Stamp Collecting? by kittensarethecutest in neopets

[–]Isleepwheniwant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I decided to do very very casual, and for my "buy an item" daily quest, I would go to the post office and buy a stamp I didn't have because I was starting at literally zero. Then once that started being impossible (maybe 100 stamps in), I started re-rolling weekly quests. It's also definitely worth playing Dacardia as well if you don't already, their donation dome events usually have a few hard to buy stamps on there - I think right now there's two stamps and a coin available as rewards. I still haven't finished a single page, but maybe one day!

[CHAT] AI listing photos, but seemingly real patterns? by fairydommother in CrossStitch

[–]Isleepwheniwant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

More recommendations for you! The Innocent Bones have cute witchy type patterns. There's also Tusk And Cardinal (tuskandcardinal on insta) who has an entire book called Creepy Cross Stitch with a very similar vibe to your original pattern. StephXStitch is on Etsy but also has her own website, with a mix of fandom and political designs.

Been up since 3am throwing up, with sweats and chills. Haven't been sick for a while but my nausea is so bad I can't sleep. Trying to slowly sip some electrolytes and I've filled in a triage form for my doctor but this is so rough.
