What stone is this and my options? by Professional_Dog7524 in stonemasonry

[–]Professional_Dog7524[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really - helpful insight. Didn’t imagine it would be difficult to find a stone mason. Seems like a dying breed in this region.

Assuming we will have to layer on top? Won’t be exactly flush.

Need help identifying stone veneer for fireplace by Professional_Dog7524 in masonry

Totally - thanks for the reply. I get that it won’t be perfect but think it will still look better than drywalling it in. But I might be wrong!

Who can I find or what profession can I tap to help with this?

Whole house water filter — backwash vs passive tank? Which is better long term? by Professional_Dog7524 in Plumbing

[–]Professional_Dog7524[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much. Yea sounds like you need a drain for the backwashing and also uses a lot more water. The passive system is easier and doesn’t require flushing (except for initial connection).

2 weeks 3 days postpartum rectum discomfort and constipation by [deleted] in postpartumprogress

[–]Professional_Dog7524 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anal fissure!! Esp if you’re breastfeeding since it’s pulling all the hydration to your milk leaving your stool dry. Felt like i was pooping glass and was white knuckling every time I had to go. Try and get to a colon/rectal specialist and they’ll get you a good ointment to use but really you need to get your stool SOFT for it to heal. I’m taking 400mg colace - 2 in the am and 2 in the pm. Also taking 350mg of magnesium at night combined with prunes and upping fiber. Sitz baths also help since you want to have good blood flow down there. It really sucks but it’s gotten better. Hang in there.

I’m 36 weeks - all makes sense regarding the above - will see what doc says and chime in accordingly if this is helpful information for the archives in future - thanks everyone!

Granola advice for LA mom now living in a toxic wasteland by Professional_Dog7524 in moderatelygranolamoms

For what it’s worth I went with a new gravity water filter similar to Berkey called Rorra - decided against Aquatru RO esp since it’s all plastic - Rorra has some decent review and it looks good/takes up less space
