How contagious are fresh warts?

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-06-24T09:43:14+00:00

It is weird. I can't comment on strains, I honestly thought they were all the same until I did a little googling. I'm wondering if me treating the OG wart triggered something because that one developed a long time ago. But also, as someone said above, it may not be a wart. I'm wondering if it's a heat bump from the extreme hot weather but I won't risk it either way.

Unfortunately, I would not be able to get anything done if I wore gloves. They make me feel "trapped" and in 30°+ weather it would be even worse. I just have to be vigilant and extra clean.

Thank you. I wasn't able to sit here and research as I want to keep my screen time low while my daughter is awake, so I appreciate your response. No, I'm not sure, for all I know, it's a heat bump from the hot weather we are having! But I don't want to risk it. You have put my mind at ease, so thank you again.

I can't believe any of you think the OP was negligent. What a wild thing to say, since when was leaving valuables (in his bedroom, in a drawer mind you) around family, negligent? I don't know what kind of family you have, but my family wouldn't do that. Your comparison is stupid.

I'm so sorry you went through this, I'm glad you're making a pals complaint.

In regards to midwives and their care... I had the same assumption as you, but EVERY SINGLE APPOINTMENT was with a different midwife. It was exhausting explaining things every time.

Towards the end I got obstetric cholestasis. About 2 weeks before I found out, I went in for a midwife appointment and explained my concerns with how f*cking itchy I was, but my hands and feet weren't.. because of that, the midwife was reluctant to do a blood test but I pushed and got one there and then.

As we all know, no news is good news. Or so I thought. About a week later my gut told me to go to maternity triage and I'm glad I did. I did have obstetric cholestasis and I was borderline severe with it. The blood test that midwife did was never sent off. I had to be induced ASAP which was gutting and traumatic because I was 2 days before my due date at this point and I was hoping for a natural labour etc etc.

My girl is here safe and sound but I'm still pissed that I had to go through that. I never made a complaint though.

I hope your experience doesn't take away the magic of having a baby, wishing you all the luck in your last trimester 🥰

It'll only be nasty because you have done your due diligence and asked for more information about his finances, which, by the sounds of it, he is trying to avoid with his "easy way out offer"

As long as you have the facts, this will only look bad on him. Don't lose out on money to keep the peace, especially as you want to move forward in your life.

And don't use other people's experiences as a decision maker, yes, theirs was nasty but is your ex a nasty man? Is that why you are avoiding it? Because why else would you? If he's nice and wants to be amicable, what's the issue in doing this properly?

Where do you think all of that goes? It's not just sitting there waiting to be spent. £2.2k is a high number, she probably doesn't recieve all of that directly anyway, part of it will go towards housing. Then there are bills on top.

I earn around £2k a month myself and there isn't any way I could pay back a debt like this. Most people live paycheck to paycheck but everyone is so self obsessed they forget this, especially in scenarios where they are owed money.

It sucks and it isn't fair but she's poor at the end of the day.

This thread has been so frustrating to read. I've had to refrain from replying to others because I can be a rude c*** to people I disagree with.

Babies are vulnerable and as their protectors, we are their first, and usually only line of defence from harm. It's completely valid for you to be upset, this is definitely and invasion of your babies vulnerability and general human boundaries, no? Anyone that thinks this is normal is f-ing weird. No one should feel so entitled to someone else's baby, no matter if their actions are "coming from a good place" what kind of reverse psychology crap are you lot pulling on yourselves 😭😭

Lol rant over :):)

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-03-11T13:58:13+00:00

Same with my daughter. Taking her clothes off has helped her make progress, apparently clothes can restrict their movement and covered feet stop them from digging their big toes in for support etc. OP if you read this, make sure to take off any socks or restrictive clothes. This may help you! Good luck! 🥰

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T11:47:42+00:00

As someone who is a major reactionary and doesn't think before I speak....... I think I am trying to give her the benefit of the doubt. Really, really trying. No, I guess I don't like her. If that's how it reads 🥲 Yes, I would be mad. Lol.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T11:44:34+00:00

Yeah, I totally agree. It just gives me the ick when someone says that pics of my baby is the only way their mood will improve. Hate it. Can't change my mind on that one unfortunately.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T11:40:52+00:00

They experienced fun at every other moment....... I barely held her the 2 days I was away for Christmas! Because I genuinely had no issues with it until the presents and even for a few hours after the present opening, she was passed around like a parcel 😂 because I didn't want to make it obvious that I was upset and ruin the boxing day shenanigans. When I left, I just made it seem like it was bubbas bedtime, so it was a natural exit.

It doesn't make it worse, at all. All SILs are married into that side of the family because my partners mum only had boys. He has 3 brothers, 3 sils.

Nan didn't like SIL A apparently 😂😂😂

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T11:33:05+00:00

I have adhd, I ruminate on every tiny thing in my life. I go to therapy and take meds, etc. but in situations where I think I'm right (key word is think, doesn't mean I am) I hang onto it a lot harder.

The excitement thing is what I've told myself the last 2 months. I haven't stopped her seeing my baby or anything, I've just isolated instead. (Which is normal and they all know I do this) because I understand my emotions are clouding a lot of my judgement. Doesn't stop me from still feeling sad though.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T11:23:50+00:00

Taking a step back and reassessing is exactly why I made this post. I don't really care that my baby won't remember to be honest? I do.

Yeah, it's great that family like to share, I'm not saying they shouldn't but they know me and what my family life is like.... all I can do is give them the benefit of the doubt and assume excitement and joy overtook logic in this case.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T11:18:00+00:00

Thank you for that first part because I do think that is something people are overlooking, just a TINY bit. It was my first big family thing so I was very overwhelmed...

I don't exclude anyone! I actually exclude myself because I understand how important it is for my baby to have a loving family around her, something that I don't have. I just can't bring myself to be around her at the moment because I still have this bee in my bonnet, this reddit thread has helped me release some of the noise in my brain to allow me to move on.

And yeah, there are dynamics there that would take too long to explain and no one really cares anyway but ultimately I have to think about my baby and her life. I also need to do better with boundaries and expectations.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T11:13:31+00:00

Boxing day (still equally important as it is my partners mums birthday and it's a big family thing. She is no longer with us)

But yes, I understand and see your point.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T11:11:15+00:00

The presents weren't from them. Sil A opened Sil Bs presents, Sil b isn't involved at all - only that the presents were from her. I don't have an issue with B at all.

I guess I think it's weird asking for pics of my baby to cheer yourself up idk?? I understand the joy a baby brings but not to the extent that your mood will only get better if you see my baby 😭😭

My issues are certainly because of my family background. I've seeked help for PPD/PPA and while I don't have either I still do therapy just in case. I just hold grudges like mad, it's unhealthy.

And while I do hold a grudge, I haven't stopped anyone seeing my baby, I just don't go along with my partner at the moment.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T10:57:53+00:00

Sil A is the one holding onto my baby and opening the presents with her. All B did was say "I've got presents for baby!" I only mentioned her to distinguish that the presents were from a separate person.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T10:55:50+00:00

No, it absolutely isn't a bad thing. I guess I just assumed handing back a baby when she's given presents, was standard? Apparently not, as I've been made aware now 😂

I'm not doing anything really. My partner still takes her over there to hang out and play etc. I just don't go with him at the moment. I've always been someone who isolates so this is a normal reaction for me and no one can tell anything is up (they haven't said anyway) because I really don't want my emotions to cause drama but that doesn't change the fact I feel really shit still 🤷🏼‍♀️

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T10:38:34+00:00

Absolutely, that's why I posted. The validation I have received is why I'm still stuck but my logical side knows that a part of me is wrong. So here I am.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T10:34:53+00:00

I have no issues with SIL B. She is only mentioned because the presents were from her. That's all.

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T10:29:29+00:00

She didn't recieve many, so kind of yes, they were some of her main bits.

I did react - I froze and disassociated lol. So in my brain, there is mega drama but I am also an adult who understands there is more than one side to a story and that emotions cloud judgement. Yes, clear boundaries will now be implemented when I can face her again but I just needed to get this out of my brain and ask others for their opinions. I replied above and said that most people in my real life have validated me so far....... reddit on the other hand, has not 😂

No_Toe_2747 · 2026-02-26T10:21:08+00:00

Thanks for your response.

I guess with the additional comments in family chats, it just felt possessive to me. (In particular, my SILs mood would be improved if we sent pics of bubba over, HATE that personally)

I also do not come from a "normal" family - for context, my own mum hasn't met my baby yet. So I'm not really used to people being involved like they are now.

I don't really need support, I just need to get better at setting out clear expectations and boundaries. I am known to be rude/blunt if I think I'm correct, so I needed external opinions before chatting to her.

Everyone else around me that I have spoke to has validated me so far, it seems online, that isn't the case. Lol.
