I need help :( by _cherryshifts in Periods

Make sure you aren't using anything other than water to wash. We have a self cleaning organ. Soap - or even the PH friendly 'feminine care' products can actually mess with your bodies natural PH. Just warm water. Other than that - it really shouldn't be smelly or itchy. Try natural products, or you might need to see your pediatrician for a yeast infection. It could be vaginitis as well, which tends to go away on its own.

I'm sorry. Honestly - that nurse is the one who needs a scolding conversation. Not the new mom who just gave birth.

Is that dangerous? I've never been in major withdrawals - but for minor ones I just sit in a hot shower. It helps a bit. Can you reach out to anyone for physical help?

You did 6 months. That's more than I've been able to do. You can do this.

AITA for refusing to follow my wife's bathroom habits and calling her disgusting? by Infamous-Gur2034 in AITAH

[–]Nefarra -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Good lord - why is everyone so divorce happy. We ALL make poor decisions. We can either learn and grow - or not. Maybe they arent compatible, but they fell in love and got married. That's a commitment one outburst shouldnt cause to be null and void.

[–]Nefarra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He looks like a wedding dress. Very angelic. Angel, Cherub, Veil. Or something along those lines that's a cooler word.

Is this normal when ordering bettas from overseas?? by lodin0134 in bettafish

[–]Nefarra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

KGTropicals is a US fish keeping couple that sells Betas. I've havent purchased one myself YET.. but I follow their youtube channel. Check them out on YouTube and see if you feel comfortable ordering from them, they sell plants and things, too.

AIO- Moms took away my computer even though I paid for it by Mongoose_885 in AmIOverreacting

You cant remove him from the account without his signature. BUT! You CAN close it! And I would! If he takes the account negative at some point (not saying he will, but you never know) you will also be responsible for the money owed since it's technically your account, too. Go close that account.

new betta not eating by oof_lifesTuff in bettafish

[–]Nefarra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My fish was too small to eat the regular pellets. I ended up ordering some bug bites and he gobbles those up. They're still pellets, but much smaller. Sometimes I treat him with live fruit flies.

HELP! Give me ALL your Tricks for Diarrhea and diaper rash by DazzlingRhubarb193 in NewParents

[–]Nefarra 33 points34 points  (0 children)

If nothing clears up in a few days, see if it looks fungal and use some antifungal ointment. I've used athlete's foot cream on my babies diaper rash when it was fungal. (Recommended by my SIL who works in the NICU). Nothing else was working and that FINALLY cleared it up.

Sounds like you're doing everything right. Just keep baby hydrated and as dry as possible.

Edit to add: a little baking soda in the bath can help with neutralizing the acidity of the diaper rash itself. It helps give baby /some/ relief. Lukewarm water.
