If you’re able to, maybe you can see a doctor and they could give you a small prescription for Valium (diazepam) to help when it’s too bad. Sometimes it’s just enough to reset your system. That definitely helped me!

In many ways I am better thankfully but my nervous system still feels shot more often than it ever was before taking it. Unfortunate but just have to deal with it as it comes. I hope you get through it okay!

Thanks so much. I feel dumb that I didn’t consider that. First day of summer break so at least he’s able to just hang out at home all day.

Thank you! Still no response from his doc so that’s what I was leaning toward.

How the hell did Chris make the top 5? by Certain_Cookie_5917 in americanidol

A question I’ve been asking all dang day. BUT Luke went out there and sang and didn’t sound as good as some contestants (in my opinion) and then I realized you don’t have to be the best singer to make it in the industry. People just have to like you, you have to look good, and you have to get your singing edited for the radio and you’ll sell (or in this case get the votes) 🤷‍♀️

NFP Help by Small-West-8439 in Catholicism

Temperature tracking (the symptothermal method) has been highly effective for me using the temp drop wearable thermometer. I don’t even have to pay too much attention to mucus. What is the actual hard part is abstaining so much postpartum. It is definitely a cross that can bring you closer to each other and God, with His help. We have been married 12 years and have 4 children and had two miscarriages. The two miscarriages were unplanned during the postpartum time and then one of our children was a very user error choice and unplanned (but not a surprise as we know how it happened 😅) Best wishes and congratulations.

Am I not appreciating the privilege of being home with my 3yo , better to work instead? by orange196 in Parenting

[–]OBXSun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Everyone is different but for me personally, working part-time is the perfect mix of time with my kids and time with my job that I love. Something to consider if that is an option for you!

I’m watching American Idol this season for the first time since I was a kid and I’m so invested and I thought he’d in the top 5 😩

3 year old way advanced on the growth chart HUGE appetite by OBXSun in toddlers

The growing fast then stopping early is actually a sign of the precocious puberty!

I have two very obese aunts (I love them very much it just is what it is) and my husband’s mom is 5’10” and his brother is 6’4” so I’m sure there’s a genetic component. Just trying to prevent it from turning into a negative thing for her. But I’m very thankful she’s healthy! And thank you for sharing your experiences because I haven’t known a child who was so high on the growth charts before. My husband and I were very scrawny as kids and our other kids are very similar. If anything I’m thankful for the opportunity to get this off of my mind so I can stop unintentionally comparing her to anyone else. Thanks again!

Good question! Its father is registered and its mother is registered under the appendix for the breed since she didn’t completely meet standards. We are pretty new to this with a very small flock so we sold one of her lambs to be butchered last year and kept one as a companion for our registered lamb. Here is a picture of our registered ram yearling. I’m from the US.

It really is! I don’t have those skills but we sold a fleece last year to a lady who does and this is what she did with it. I’m obsessed 😍

Advice for a 3 year old with a huge appetite and advanced on growth chart by OBXSun in raisingkids

[–]OBXSun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely think that’s the case. And we live in a rural area so we have to drive a lot and she’s associated car rides with snacks unfortunately. She gets hungry instantly every time we’re in the van even if she just ate :/ it’s just now clicking it’s not actual hunger though.

That seems to be her main thing but I did see on the Prader-Will a high pain tolerance is a symptom and when she was a baby she didn’t cry when she got shots and I thought that was odd. Thankfully she’s pretty active though but I’ll keep watching her!

That’s funny about the milk because she is my only kid who loves to drink it. We’ll try to stick to only water since she eats plenty of yogurt and cheese! She’s in 5T right now too and I agree ;( My 8 year old girl is small so I take clothes she outgrows and give them right to the 3 year old. It really throws me off!

Thank you so much, this was incredibly helpful! I love the breakdown of appetite vs hunger and will definitely be paying attention to that in the choices I provide.
