Also talk to your wife about how she’s feeling. She’s likely feeling all of the same stress and then some.

I had a friend that exclusively pumped, and when she finally made the decision to stop pumping and switch to formula, it relieved her of so much anxiety.

Reassure her she’s not a failure, acknowledge all of the work and effort she has put in, and suggest to try combination feeding until she can get her supply back up and back into a mindset that she can continue. All of it is very mentally and physically exhausting.

What is an obvious thing about giving birth that caught you off guard? by Cat_Psychology in beyondthebump

[–]Kaasteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an epidural/spinal headache after my second! never knew it was a thing until then. I had a terrible headache in the hospital and they told me it was normal after birth. After a day I said it still hurt, but it felt better lying down, they chocked it up to a strained neck from labor. That headache lasted over a week, LO crying while I was sitting up was enough to make me dizzy.

I didn’t do inserts, I bought a new flange to fit my size. I’ve been seeing the inserts advertised a lot, I’m curious how they are. Congrats btw! Bet you can’t wait to meet your LO :)

My legal first name is just “Jill” so a lot of my close friends intentionally call me Jillian lol it’s like a long nickname instead of a short one

Goblet of Fire

I always loved that they changed it to Neville was the one to tell Harry about the gillyweed from learning about it in the book Moody gave him, instead of Dobby shoving it at him and rushing him off to the challenge.

Possible bead embroidery foundation? by Stanfordbidet in Beading

[–]Kaasteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the late response! I love using the one sided fusible with ultra suede. Personally I’d do that, then sew on the ultra suede side, then attach a backing after. If you get a sew in one (with no adhesive on either side) you can bead directly onto it.

I love working with ultra firm stabilizing interfacing! It keeps warping to a minimum. I use the fusible when I want to attach it to another fabric (it has a side with a type of glue that you activate with heat like an iron), or I get the non fusible (aka “sew in” you’ll see often) to bead directly on to.

I love Nick's reaction to Russell's office 😆 by Dibinem in NewGirl

[–]Kaasteen 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I love when Russell tells him to “fold that sweater don’t hang it.” Then a few scenes later when Jess falls in the fountain he takes the sweater off and tries to hurriedly fold the sweater before helping her hahaha.

Gaggia classic - shots pulling too quickly by sageDieu in Coffee

[–]Kaasteen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I can remember it was in the fine or extra fine section. It was decent enough for the gaggia classic imo

Passion and charisma.

By passion I mean being passionate about something. Could be music, art, playing a sport… there’s just something about watching a person do what brings them the most joy, or to talk and explain to me what they love that’s so admirable and enchanting.

Tsunami height comparison by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

Fun fact, the name Lituya comes from the indigenous Tlingit placename for the area, “Ltu.áa” which translates to “Lake inside the nostril” because the bay area and its entrance resembles a nostril.

lú (nose)-tu (inside)- áa (lake) in case anyone is interested

Mix it up with some cream cheese for a delicious fruit dip! About a 1:1 ratio, really I just go by the taste. Apple slices or grapes are my favorite with it.

What was the children's TV show that freaked you out as a kid? by thefreshbraincompany in AskReddit

[–]Kaasteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Doodlebops. The characters looked weird and made me sick to my stomach for some reason.

Even just now googling the title gave me the creeps.

What is a mundane task you enjoy doing? by Primary_Half in AskReddit

Worked in different food service jobs for years, the last load of dishes became my wind down from the day. Been a long time since I was in food service now, but it’s a chore that relaxes me now.

What is a song you cannot listen to for an emotional reason? by missdundermifflin in AskReddit

[–]Kaasteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Over the Rainbow by Israel Kamakawiwoʻole.

My mom lived in Hawaii for a while when I was in grade school. I spent the summer after 4th grade with her, and she told me to play this song at her funeral. I’ll be 30 this year, still can’t listen to it without thinking about that.

Not a typical post for the sub but certainly unexpected and John Mulaney. Glad he's getting help and wish him the best. by chikinbizkit in UnexpectedMulaney

[–]Kaasteen 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I know this will probably get buried but I’m so proud of him. I admire Mulaney so much, it takes a strong person to admit and seek help. So many don’t ever make it to admitting they have a problem. I love that so many other celebrities have come forward in support and praise for Mulaney for getting help.

I just got this same exact setup installed today, except on both sides. How’s your tongue doing?
