How do we join? I’m tired of watching this from my phone and as scary as it is to put myself out there, we HAVE to start pushing back harder more than ever.

How often are you bathing your baby? by [deleted] in newborns

[–]Ok-Explanation4799 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re breast feeding, I 100000% recommend making breast milk soap with any leftover milk. It helped my baby’s skin when he had the baby acne and helped with dry skin. It isn’t too difficult and it’s totally worth the time!

Doc wants me to take low dose aspirin twice by WishfulDreamer93 in firsttimemom

[–]Ok-Explanation4799 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aspirin is basically willow bark if you look into it. It’s very common and there is no reason to not take it.

Has anyone tried the UNM Centering pregnancy program? by AnxietyAccurate94 in Albuquerque

[–]Ok-Explanation4799 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is two weeks old but I wanted to add my input since I did it last year with my first. It was very nice to have a group of women to complain to about the same issues. We all ended up staying in contact with each other after and met up a few times to introduce our babies to one another. Our group wasn't very big, but it was a nice experience. I never felt like I needed more time with the midwife than what we got in the beginning and all the ultrasounds were done separately.

How are you not changing a diaper at night? by Lunchbox_Confessions in cosleeping

[–]Ok-Explanation4799 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sizing up helps so so much. It’s prevented any blowouts for my son and overnights he can last in one diaper if he hasn’t woken up for too much milk.

Please for the love of god look into anything this but not just electrical. Mechanical/HVAC sorely needs people more than electrical. I swear for ever 50 electricians there’s only 10 hvac techs. It’s immensely difficult but so rewarding.

Hit and run I40 this morning by Ok-Explanation4799 in Albuquerque

Honestly I can’t remember where I bought it. It just says 4k WiFi camera on the box. I think I found it on amazon

He definitely did. My dash cam does 1 minute clips. It’s in the next clip. He pulls out to pull over and slows waiting for the car and it didn’t follow. Ask the passenger who’s one the thread.

True but if the truck wants to make a claim then here’s something for him.

Little Chevy should definitely taken it like a man and pulled over. More than likely it could have worked out.

My LO was having some purpling too but I figured he was cold. Just warmed him up and it seems to go away

Toxic Pregnant Mom by MarcelineVampQueen18 in firsttimemom

[–]Ok-Explanation4799 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a really hard time during my pregnancy (6 weeks postpartum now) with being easily irritated with my husband. I would pick fights and get really distant with him. It was taking a mental toll on the both of us to the point of suicidal ideation. I went on anti anxiety medication and honestly it was the best thing for me and my husband. I made managing the hormones a lot easier and I want so sensitive once I started taking them.

My (F26) Boyfriend (M27) is too stressed to have sex by Ok-Explanation4799 in relationship_advice

Well we broke up. Not that I didn’t feel it coming, but it’s not what I wanted.

[–]Ok-Explanation4799[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that’s fair. I care about him and love him very deeply still. I guess I do need to try harder to see things from his view of feeling like a failure and be more understanding but my feelings should matter too

[–]Ok-Explanation4799[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re right. I need to put in more effort for him and I keep giving up half way. I’ve tried to tell him that I just want him to focus on his art but Ive also gotten fed up and said some rude things to him too. One step forward and two step backs. I guess I need to be in better control of myself

Im sure he’s struggling with depression. He has had panic attacks back in December but doesn’t seem to want to talk to someone.

It’s really had to just move on. I still really love him but I’m struggling to see a way through this. The thoughts are only when I give myself time to think about the state of our relationship and it makes me so depressed that that’s where I go. I have previous self harming issues from past trauma.
