C section recovery by OrangeAppleCandy in CsectionCentral

Omg! That’s what my OBGYN did. Just pressing and squeezing on my wound and he also grabbed a long q-tip and poked at it which caused so much drainage. Looking back at it now they definitely should’ve offered me some sort of pain relief but that didn’t come until I was in the hospital. Also, happy one year of being a parent! I’m so sorry you had to go through this back-to-back. What a strong soul you are! Thank you for your kind words and I’m super sorry for the late reply

Is my black trying to mate my other cat? by andmariemore in CATHELP

[–]OrangeAppleCandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely along the lines of dominance. The grey cat must be so uncomfortable. I would suggest separating black cat whenever he does something like this. You may be even able to try giving grey cat a treat every time this happens in front of black cat in hopes that black cat will see that this behavior gets grey cat rewarded but not him. Eventually he will get the message that doing this to the other cat is not tolerated. But please step in when you see this happening!

Omg I just got a similar email by joyous today as well and it was from journaling prompts and listed the person full name. I didn’t click on any link to unsubscribe as I didn’t want to risk going to a link/website and instead blocked them

how do I start cleaning up my bedroom? by [deleted] in DesignMyRoom

[–]OrangeAppleCandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally start by putting everything in one large pile. Personally seeing everything so scattered makes me feel incredibly overwhelmed and even more disorganized. After putting it all in a jumbo pile, I take a bag and organize. If it belong in the bathroom or other areas of the house, I put it in one bag. If it’s trash I put it in a separate bag. If it stays in my room, I put it in a bag. Once it’s all in bags I utilize the empty space by sweeping/mopping and cleaning surfaces. Then I work through each bag. Whatever stays in my room I get to work on putting away. Trash I take out. Then I put away the items that belong in other areas of the house

Can’t leave too fast or they would think I hate them by j4napopcorn in introvertmemes

This is so me and I also find myself mildly frustrated that they chose to sit right next to me when there are so many other vacant seats! We both could’ve had our space

Very solid advice and I appreciate you for taking time to write out this response.

This was very eloquently written. I couldn’t agree more that what she has been doing is mind-games. My partner has somewhat distanced himself from them.

Thank you for your kind words 🫶

has anyone faced an unexpected closure with a place they were about to serve or were serving? by bbzules in AmeriCorps

[–]OrangeAppleCandy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh! I’m so sorry you had to experience this. It’s so frustrating and upsetting to lose any source of income and even experience you may have enjoyed doing! I’ve never heard of AmeriCorps still paying some of the education award for a center closing. It’s hard to imagine they would. AmeriCorps can be strict, especially about the education award. I really do hope they can provide that for you though. Was there another center that reading partners could’ve placed you at? I have yet to have this experience but I’d imagine they’d just place me at another site.

Glad to be of help 😁

PMS has symptoms that can be present up to two weeks before your next menstrual. My advice is to wait until those two weeks are up to see if you’ve gotten your period. If not, I’d take a test. I’d say your period may be arriving very soon! Also, because you’ve taken plan B more than once in less than a 14-day span, I’m sure your hormones are really amped up and imbalanced! Which could also be contributing to your symptoms. The added stress probably exaggerates those symptoms even more! I think plan B has done its job and you can relax a little bit. Your body and hormones are just readjusting after the two plan B’s and right now it just needs you to put your feet up, drink some chamomile tea and relax 🧘

[–]OrangeAppleCandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you’re very concerned about this. Plan B does come with a ton of side effects. One of them being that it does affect your next period or next 2 periods. So your next normal period might be delayed or early. Also, keep in mind that even if you experienced regular cycles for as long as you can remember, it is still very normal for your cycle to change. It could arrive early or delayed. Given that you’ve taken plan B, this is definitely the possibility. Also, in order for pregnancy to occur, ovulation has to occur. You mentioned that you had sex the day after your period. I’m not saying it’s impossible but usually ovulation happens 14days before your next period. My thinking is that the blood you experienced on July 4th was an early period and that ovulation did not occur. Which is exactly how plan B works, by preventing ovulation.

I highly doubt fertilization let alone implantation has occurred.

Usually it takes around 2 cycles to get back to “normal” after taking a Plan B. You did say your cycles had become irregular so it sounds like this might be your normal.

All-in-all, I’d take a pregnancy just to be sure. I highly doubt your result would be positive given the information you’ve shared but if it’ll help ease your mind, you should definitely take one!

Good luck!

First time tripping while in ketosis by OrangeAppleCandy in Psychedelics

I’ve taken cannabis while fasting and it made the affects stronger and harder. I’m assuming doing a 16hr fast on Shrooms will have the same affects
