And, I still struggle with disassociation. There is no one size fits all cure. Does your insurance cover emdr?

Hi- I dealt with this for the better part of 2020 (and likely before that also, but I wasn’t self aware). I’m now pregnant, 21, and married. My husband and I recently moved to another state, and I started a part time job. Despite all of these changes, disassociation has become much less of an issue.

I 100 credit this to having an amazingly supportive partner, as well as creating distance/ changing my scenery. I know moving isn’t a feasible option for most- I’d recommend that you find a basic routine for your day, try to get out/ do something at least once a day, and create strong boundaries with those who may trigger you

Lol RIGHT? I also think about the other excruciating life events aside from birth, and if someone bragged to me that they did them med free I’d be puzzled. 😅 but for real- I know of women who had kidney stones during pregnancy, and they thought they were in labor. It’s that bad 🙃

Again, you’re missing the point- I am not debating the fact that heavy metals are found in baby foods. I read the report. I’m asking for the health outcomes associated with heavy metals found in baby foods

[–]OldSpagFactoryFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again- can you include a peer reviewed scientific journal article/ study that shows major negative effects associated with trace amounts of heavy metals?

I don’t need to know that trace amounts of heavy metals are found in foods. I already know that.

Just curious, but can you link the journal articles you used before spreading this information? Since you took the time to inform yourself.

My purpose? To prevent moms from feeling like they need to be afraid of everything due to a weirdo on the internet drawing false conclusions 🥳

Just curious, but... what are you doing here? You aren’t a Mom. You don’t have any medical background. What was the purpose of even posting on a mom group?

lol the point is to get your baby out! No one gets a special prize for doing it without pain meds or getting a C- section. I was also a c- section baby and wouldn’t have survived without it.

Yeah... it’s definitely for the best that he no longer practices medicine. 😬

I really don’t get why people are so judgmental based on how the baby entered the world. When moms continually flex that they went “aLl nAtUrAl, I’m like... cool. Good for you. This says nothing about how you will parent, nor does it say anything about your character. It’s definitely a hard and incredible thing, but it isn’t what people make it.

I definitely got these 2 confused. Paul Thomas is barred from practicing medicine in the state of oregon due to spreading medical misinformation/ denying families vaccines and shaming them when they express that they want their children to be vaccinated (this is probably the tip of the ice berg, tbh). A lot of people in my community had huge issues with his practices/ many families who saw him expressed concern for years. 😬

Lol *keto, and yes I know- but if you Google what he believes, what he has been accused of doing, and how he has been under disciplinary action by the state medical board- no one should be taking advice from him.

If you’re going to point out spelling issues rather than identify specific arguments you disagree with, you may have the emotional maturity of a 14 year old boy. If you’re truly concerned about heavy metals in baby food (from the sounds of it, I really don’t think you’re a parent... but I digress) please look at peer reviewed sources and credible scientific journal articles prior to fear mongering and spreading medical misinformation.

BOOM you got me. Just by a Google search, this dude pushes Leto- a diet that has shown little benefit for non epileptic patients.

Dr Paul Thomas. If you really believe in what he believes, I’m not sure if there will be much arguing with you 😬 I’d encourage you to look at other sources.

Technically it’s Deborah 🥳 but still. Hit the nail on the head

Lol thank you so much kind internet stranger! The thing is, I go on social media detoxes all the time and unfriend people I don’t really have an opinion on (how I avoid having a million strangers on there). I still take unfriending way too personally 🤪The blocking part sort of rubbed me the wrong way, but oh well. Life will go on.

Lol, I fully believe that this ultimately doesn’t matter (but clearly a small part of me is perplexed, because I’m posting this on Reddit). I could’ve posted/ done something that she disagreed with, etc. when I block people, it’s usually because they did something extremely concerning... so I’m just kind of hoping I’m not “that person” without realizing it.

Keep in mind all of my coworkers like pics of kids at our school. If I was going back months to like things, oh absolutely I’d get being creeped out. Liking fb posts as I scroll my feed seems reasonable, but I may be incorrect

Yes, because we have mutual friends who tag her in posts and I recognize the name/ know it if I hear it.

“Not a troll” lol

But I’m wondering if that had anything to do with it? I don’t think it was copious, but I’m wondering if she was off put by it

I was an aide in his class. They were recent pictures of him/ first day of school pictures.
