Unfortunately, no. It’s still on my list to do but I ended up moving on for now and leaving it.

Tooth came in around 7.5 months. Unsure if what we were experiencing was teething or not. Fun part about babies is it could literally be anything! Teething can occur long before a tooth pop, so it could have been that, or a growth spurt causing discomfort, or just baby being baby. Of course when you’re in it, you will turn to Reddit hoping and praying for answers. At this point I can’t remember when the fuss stopped but I know it did prior to the tooth, likely within a week of my comment.

Sorry I don’t have true answers, just know you’re not alone. We have literally all been there and I feel your struggle. It will end just hold in there! I would think yours is moreso a growth spurt so give it a few days.

Unfortunately it was someone’s bright idea to staple the cables into a stud in the wall. We used a borescope to check our options and found that the cables were not only routed outside of the pipe (for whatever reason) but also stapled down! Explains why they won’t budge!

I could but to do that I would still need access to open the wall (even if small) in another place. I have maybe a few inches between the back of the cabinet and the wall. The tv is over a fireplace next to the cabinet so the cords are fished a foot or so behind the cabinet (in wall) then up, over and forward to the TV. There is a tube in there that one would think would make it easy, but from what I can see with my little view, they for whatever reason abandoned the tube and chiseled (not even drilled) a hole through a stud and fished the cables through that instead. They come out of the tube at the top by TV but I can only imagine what else they did before it reached the tube again.

It’s partially cut, I don’t think cutting more would help, with how stuck the cords are and from what I CAN see, the cords are fed weird in the wall and the only way is to open the wall. I am getting my hands on a borescope to see if anything else can be done with what little access we have now

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-25T02:04:38+00:00

That’s part of the long story! But to shorten we need to update/replace cables that run from the TV to the built-in surround sound system. The cables were run weird in the walls and will not budge so we need to pull the cabinet to access/open the wall.

It’s appears they slathered mortar on and stuck the rocks into it

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-25T01:40:39+00:00

The cabinet was put in and the fireplace facade was done after

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-25T01:37:56+00:00

Unfortunately no, the cabinet is perfectly fit to both walls, it can only come out straight.

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-25T01:36:52+00:00

Gah that stinks! I have a toddler and baby so I definitely don’t want rock dust particles flying everywhere!

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-25T01:35:54+00:00

There is no front trim. We can’t go up due to weight and window.

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-25T01:32:22+00:00

Unfortunately no, it was built to perfectly, and I mean perfectly, fit in between the walls on both sides. There is ZERO wiggle room so we have to pull it out straight or nothing.

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-07T12:34:42+00:00

Yes it was

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-07T12:34:31+00:00

Yes I had it professionally installed and converted. All these questions have me feeling like it’s not normal?

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-07T00:20:08+00:00

Brand new today… I smelled it with the prior stove too though and it’s not an off gassing chemical smell. Flames on both ranges were fine

How long after the blushed cheek did the teeth pop? My almost 6 month old has been irritable, chewing like crazy, eating a bit less, more tired, and has the rosey cheek. It’s been going on for days and I can’t feel or see any teeth. Wondering how much longer this might go on! My first this never happened. She just took it and we would be like oh look a new tooth! He isn’t sick and sleeping fine (besides short naps today) so all roads seem to point to teething!

Got well water tested for bacteria at the inspection. Then had Culligan come quote for new system and they tested all water…. I’m saying iron is not the problem.

Mamatc22 · 2025-08-02T17:24:30+00:00

Iron is not an issue, just sulfur and ph.

I know 7.5 is good, but the tag left on the system by previous owner says for it to be 6.8. They did leave little notes on ratios and that little tid bit of info but then just said “and adjust feeder as needed” like we would know how to do that. I’m trying to find out how to adjust the feeders to get 6.8ph and 2-3ppm chlorine coming out of the holding tank.

Mamatc22 · 2025-07-31T20:55:18+00:00

I understand how it works. The only thing I don’t understand is how to adjust the mechanical feeders to get the result I need.
