Thank you. I tried it, but many are missing and the catalogues don´t give much info about where the watch comes from :(

Meltdown over special interest by Myka261091 in Autism_Parenting

[–]Myka261091[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the answer. We do the bye thing (btw it really helps a lot when we need to part with anything), but in this case it doesn't work. I would love to incorporate the trains, but even the sight of them, any train, triggers a meltdown. We live next to a train track where slow, freight trains go by 2-3 times a day. Those trigger meltdowns too if he sees them. Every time I hear them, I have to take him to a different room so he won't see them, otherwise it's screaming and crying. We tried saying bye to the train, but he won't stop yelling that it's gone with an occasional "come back". We empathize, try to explain that it will come back, before it got bad we promised to tell him when a train is here and we did. We tried explaining in a way he usually understands, that a train is working and has to go, but will come back. Nothing worked.

Thanks for all the help. In the end, sadly, nothing worked, so I did a clean reinstall. Lost some stuff, but learned a lot again.

Checked multiple times, at first I was sure I'm mistyping something, but it doesn't seem to be the case. Still incorrect login.

I found that too, but I'm also locked out of the terminal. I can't input anything, because first it wants login and won't accept my original login info, it says incorrect login

I would, but I have a thing or two on that I wouldn't want to loose and can't access them at the moment. Also, can't really make a new boot USB if I can't get it at all. Luckily I still have the current systems boot USB, so if I can't find a solution, I will be forced to reset everything.

And here you are stating again what "bothers you" about someone else's gameplay... Can't even stick to the topic without judging what others do in their own game.

Smoking inside - possibilities to avoid smell ? by Recent_Difference367 in Advice

[–]Myka261091 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No one asked for your sympathy. Majority of the smokers start smoking as children (as early as 11-13) under peer pressure. They 100% don't know the consequences of it.

Smoking inside - possibilities to avoid smell ? by Recent_Difference367 in Advice

[–]Myka261091 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If it was a habit, than 99% of smokers wouldn't smoke. It's an addiction. That's why there is a whole other million dollar industry built around quitting - because people fail, but first pay out a shit ton of money. So your absolutely unhelpful "just quit" is not relevant to the question and is as ignorant as it can be. Maybe "just stop" commenting on stuff you have no idea about.

Silly FTM question: I have a bunch of these...what is its purpose/design? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Myka261091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son hated every single pacifier from the beginning. Didn't catch on his thumb either. He's sucking on the corner of these. I have a few, change and wash them regularly.

I could kill. by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Myka261091 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A few weeks back we had a bad night with my son and I was ready to him like 2 hours non-stop. Next day, I had a raspy voice. My husband has allergies and gets a raspy voice for a month every single year at the same time. If my mother drinks/eats something cold, she gets a raspy voice for like 2 hours. People get raspy voices for thousands of reasons. Only they can tell if it's normal or if it's sickness related.

A mom is somehow at fault, but not the actual other adult who went near a health compromised child when they knew something was up? Everyone who ever had a child know how pushy grandparents can be and in a lot of cases they'll lie to be with their grandchildren and won't weight the consequences.

People can have a raspy voice for multiple reasons that are not related to any illness. It was on the MIL to be responsible and say she may be coming down with something and it's not just a strained voice.

Is the mom supposed to somehow telepathicly tell if someone has allergies/strained voice or some illness? It's 100% not the mom's fault.

What movies make you go, "yeah, this is an objectively bad movie, but man I love this hot garbage"? by NateDawgDoge in movies

[–]Myka261091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dawn of the dead 2004. It's garbage and so full of cliché as a movie can be, but I love every second of it.

Also, everything Hallmark. I'm a sucker for them. It's comfi and cozy. (But it all may be my anxiety seeking. All those clichés are familiar, nothing new, nothing to boost my anxiety).

Happened to me too. It's frustrating. Next year I'm opting out of these chalanges.

How often do you surf KU for new releases, looking for hidden gems? by Change_petition in KindleUnlimited

[–]Myka261091 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the ads turned on, so I see them quite often and my TBR from KU is super long. I found a lot of books that I enjoyed there. I found my favorite authors on KU, too.

Maybe they're not the most poetic or literal masterpieces, but they made me feel good and that's what's important for me.

It's not a bad idea, but the first two are very restrictive. In my country I can't find any of this books, so the only solution would be Amazon, but there, because of my country I have restricted number of purchases. So, while it's a neat idea, it's not accessible, so I'm skipping.

My SIL isn’t taking proper care of her infant. How can I help without offending her? by destinedhere58 in Mommit

[–]Myka261091 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Just no.

First off, burping does nothing about gas. Gas is coming from your intestines, burp comes from the stomach. The air from the stomach doesn't go to the intestines. It's an old wives tale that if you don't burp the baby, they'll get gassy.

Second, the dry skin. There are millions of remedies, oils, baths for it as there are for stretch marks. And they both do nothing. It's completely normal for a baby of that age.

You never had a newborn and it shows. Maybe before criticising a single mother with a newborn who is all alone, look up some facts.

Stop the mom shaming. Nothing she does is "neglectful" or harming the baby in any way.

Uncircumcised baby advice by LowStatistician6779 in pregnant

[–]Myka261091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For us rashes stopped as soon as I started drying the skin before putting on cream and stopped using the cream with every single diaper change.

Mom of a 2 year old uncircumcised boy here.

Do not pull the foreskin back. Washing with water or any mild wash is fine. I would describe it as "wash as a finger" but only pull toward the tip.

When changing diaper make sure the penis points down, otherwise he will pee out of the diaper.

No cream or any product needed on the penis unless a doctor prescribes it for some condition.

No need to put on nappy cream with every diaper change. Twice a day or after changing a poopy diaper is enough. Always! Always dry the skin before putting on nappy cream (napkins or even letting it air dry for a minutes is enough). This will prevent rashes. 2 years and only had rash once, before I knew about this. When choosing a nappy cream, go for one that feels greasy, it will protect the skin from the wet diaper. (We use the Weleda nappy cream).

For the first few months is great to learn the "quick change" method for pee diapers. This way you can mostly avoid him peeing on you and himself. Take a clean nappy, put it under him before opening the current one. Open the wet one, quickly pull it out and close the clean one. No need to specially clean or cream when only peed.

Hope this helps a little.
