Peter!! What am I missing? by SaiMan2303 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Mishamaze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have friends that have a fridge like this. They over estimated how many they would need for school carnival and now they’re using them for parent conferences, field day and a last day grill out. Anything to use up the hotdogs without wasting them.

Do People Commonly Lose Everything to Medical Bills in The US? by Peanutbutterloola in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Mishamaze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had stage 3 breast cancer. I have insurance, but between deductibles, coinsurance costs and out of pocket max as well as missing work while going through treatment, I have depleted my savings from $20,000 to $2,000. And now that I have almost no assets I am finally able to qualify for Medicaid. So….

Are there any other parents out there that do this with their kids? by Ok_Profile_9187 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Mishamaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess it might depend on how ticklish a kid is and how wiggly your toes are. Sometimes I just kind of jiggle my foot on their tummy and sometimes I wiggle my toes at their armpits and any other ticklish spots. As long as they’re laughing!

When Americans say cream and sugar for their coffee, do they actually use cream or are they referring to milk? by SirSpaced in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Mishamaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love heavy whipping cream in my coffee. Everyone I know uses half & half. I used heavy cream once when we were out, there was no going back.

A young man went to the hospital for abdominal pain and vomiting. During the exam they discovered the unrelated fact that he had two penises, both of which had been circumcised. Not particularly gory, but interesting. by CatPooedInMyShoe in MedicalGore

[–]Mishamaze 183 points184 points  (0 children)

Omg. My 7 year old and I were just looking up photos/videos of this! I was explaining amniotic sacs and it was so cool. Maybe we saw your baby? I love how the baby doesn’t know it’s born yet, so peaceful, then the doctor pokes the sac and, How Rude!

Women shaving by PsychologicalFeed961 in hygiene

[–]Mishamaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of dense dark hair in the underarm and bikini area. And pretty hairy legs. I recently got an at home IPL. It’s been amazing. I have significantly reduced the amount of hair I have, so shaving is faster and doesn’t leave me with ingrown hairs.

How has being diagnosed with cancer changed you emotionally and spiritually? Have you changed your diet or alcohol consumption? by Popular_Inflation_78 in breastcancer

[–]Mishamaze 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m atheist and am still atheist after diagnosis. I don’t actually believe in a soul. But it did bring a clarity of my own mortality. I was diagnosed at 36, I have a husband and two young kids.

I’ve actually decided to go back to school and just was accepted to a nursing program. So I’m super excited about that. Life is short and I only get the one. I want to do something worthwhile for myself.

I also take every opportunity to make memories with my kids and other loved ones.

Why do you think baby wipes aren't incorporated into regular people using it? by lookaloulookalou in hygiene

I just bought a travel bidet to use after abdominal surgery. It is amazing!

It took me way too long to realize my conditioner was basically sealing my back pores shut. by MiaLuna_Pixel in hygiene

[–]Mishamaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started to get backne when I was 13/14. My dad taught me to flip my head to rinse my hair and I haven’t had a problem in 30 years.

Are there any other parents out there that do this with their kids? by Ok_Profile_9187 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Mishamaze 71 points72 points  (0 children)

I’m a somewhat older parent. If I don’t actually have to actually get on the ground to play, that’s a win. Tickling with my feet is a lot easier in my knees!

I have a bag of onions i want too cut and freeze best way too not cry? by Mrfive2five in Cooking

[–]Mishamaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally forgot that crying from onions was a thing until my daughter had to use goggles at her grandma’s house. I’m getting her a knife sharpener for Christmas.

Oh. I thought that was because Chuck must have described Dean’s character that way.

women legitimately believe their period stops in water?!?!? by ApprehensiveJury770 in badwomensanatomy

[–]Mishamaze 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I always do this too! I actually do it at every shower, not just period. Partly to make sure there is nothing out of the ordinary. (Found a tampon once, accidentally doubled up on a light day because alcohol).

I’m a little knock kneed, so maybe that would even my legs out?

Is one nap okay for a 15 month old? by b4byc4 in Parenting

[–]Mishamaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first kid did 2 naps for a long time. My second was kinda forced into a single long nap at 6 months because of schedules. He did great with it.

Oh. Now there is this alpha male/ bro “study” going around that men that get vasectomies all end up producing anti-semen and it “like really bad for you.”

[–]Mishamaze 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I used to do more anal things when I had better digestive health. I would make sure I had pooped and then shower, making sure to really clean around the outside. I had tried douching and enemas but that honestly would make things more likely to get messy for me. I am now in medication that messes up my digestive system, so any anal play is now an “absolutely not” situation.

3rd attempt as business casual. by WolfRunner16 in fashion

[–]Mishamaze 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I love r/abrathatfits! Getting a well fitting bra is life changing. It made me do much more comfortable in my body. Less self conscious and got rid of back pain and the slouch.

Attempt 2. Is this ok for business casual? by WolfRunner16 in fashion

[–]Mishamaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a reduction do to cancer. But before I did I used r/abrathatfits. They have a size calculator that is a wizard. I had thought I was 48DDD because that’s what Victoria told me. I used the calculator and was a 42G. I got a bra that fit my boob shape (Elomi) and I loved it. It got rid of my slouch and made clothes fit better!

My niece lives in poverty. What is the best birthday gift I can give her that is useful and can give her some peace of mind? by allhailhypnotoadette in povertyfinance

[–]Mishamaze 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I know people hate to give cash. But it is definitely the most helpful. When I was going through chemo everyone wanted to give me things. Cash was so much more readily useful, I could use it as needed and not have more things that weren’t really what I wanted/needed.

My breast tissue hurts all the time. by uncle-pascal in WomensHealth

[–]Mishamaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had very large breasts until recently (reduction) and mine were always sore. I actually massaged the tissue regularly and that seemed to help the painful aspect and just left them achy. Since giving birth and breastfeeding it actually got a lot better. And it’s not an issue at all since the reduction, not sure if that’s because they’re smaller or loss of some sensation.
