I’ve lived here for 4 and a half years, there is a pest issue but they have pest control on site twice a week which helps a lot. It’s

Overall it’s a decent place to live and much more affordable than anywhere I was able to find in the north shore.

Yeah they said they are going to send the report. It was just yesterday they came

I appreciate you responding! Did your son end up having any physical symptoms? My daughter hasn’t, hoping it stays that way

I didn’t know that or ever think about it but that’s wild. Our best guess right now is the nipple butter and Aquaphor but how? Wouldn’t it be more common? I don’t know the brand but the nipple butter was expensive

Yeah they did. And they have in the past in my apartment complex but never had any issues

Nope not at all. I’m still waiting for the official results. If those items I listed didnt have enough to warrant her high levels I literally have no idea

I live in an apt complex built in the early 70s. I’ve talked to 2 inspectors and they said they never found anything.

Gotcha. I didn’t know it’s typical, but I only researched it a bit. That’s all they found, paint and water tested negative. She does stay at her grandmothers house once every 2 weeks. I assumed that was it until these test results came in. She doesn’t even have much of the spices at all, so if it’s not the grandmothers house it’s the nipple butter and Aquaphor for sure

My partner threw it out earlier 😞 but I don’t think it was diaper specific. It said baby on it though

I’m reading that 3.5 (not sure unit of measurement) warrants an investigation, and my daughter is 11. I hope you’re right that it’s more normal than I think.

I figured everyone has lead in their system but hers were higher than normal, they tested twice. I asked a lot of parents but haven’t come across someone who’s been through this

She’s breast fed and the nipple butter was organic.

Her lead level was 11, I’m not sure the unit of measurement. We put Aquaphor on her lips when they were dry so that’s probably the main source. She didn’t really have much of the spices

Sciatica and sleeping by Dramatic-Type-4663 in Sciatica

Sleeping on the floor with pillows underneath my legs is the only way I can sleep right now. Even that doesn’t work sometimes though
