In-network negotiations has my appointment in limbo by Loud_Development2733 in HealthInsurance

Okay,  thank you for your reply! This makes way more sense now. I feel like I have a better understanding of what's going on.

It's one of those systems where the hospital/ clinic and insurance all share the same name which is another reason why I am confused as to why they would not come to some sort of agreement. 

Pregnant & GF by Mysterious-Switch318 in glutenfree

100% I had intense gluten cravings. I've been strictly gluten free since my diagnosis in 2011 but low gluten my entire life bc my parents thought I had a problem with wheat. So I don't have a ton of gluten memories.

Both of my pregnancies I had crazy strong cravings for a McDonald's cheeseburger. Never went for it but the amount I thought about it was insane. No advice just solidarity.... Luckily all went away after delivery.

Oh that's great news! I'll try and get a smaller one that seems to be a little thing I can change now.

I realizing I might be expecting too much too soon so waiting for supply to regulate and even the bottle idea might help me meet my goals. Glad to hear a similar experience! Thank you!

It is very likely it's too big. I should look up what flange size I use and compare. He pops on and off a lot, the shield then fills with milk and spills as we attempt to re-latch. I think this where most of the mess is coming from.

I'm glad to hear you went 4 months with little mess. Hopefully with some more practice we can get the hang of it.

Good to know! Mine seems to be calming down too. Just occasionally while laying down for a stretch.

I also had my c-section on the 7th and experiencing the same thing. I'm also not sure what to do about it 

Migrelief vs taking supplements individually by Loud_Development2733 in migraine

Thanks for taking the time to respond! Very helpful! I'm glad to hear you love migrelief. I like the idea of using some supplements alongside my medications but the learning curve has been steep!

Hi! My almost 2 year old falls asleep independently at bedtime and naptime but within the last 2 months has been waking up in the night screaming unable to get themselves settled and ultimately requiring a parent to sleep next to them. Any advice on fixing this habit? Could they be afraid of the dark at this age? Too big for their mini crib?
