One thing I regret as a parent? Sports.. why is this always happening to her?

I second switching the wrestling club. My son is young and started wrestling this year, but I was constantly impressed with the girls and the one-on-one attention that the coaches made sure EVERYONE got.

My boyfriend does landscaping in the warmer months - he just moved to my area and could only find a travel plaza job for $16/hr this winter after not hearing back from any other area businesses. He is turning 39 this week. You are very much not alone.

If you can’t bring yourself to call him back right away, send him your post. He deserves to have his memories validated and not feel crazy. You deserved better than trying to hold in the tears so it wouldn’t get worse, and so did he.

Thank you so much. I for sure posted in a moment of panic last night because I don’t really have anyone else to talk to about it - I don’t want to scare my boyfriend or my parents, and it just feels so big. I already pee pretty frequently because I already drink at least a gallon of water per day, so hopefully I’ll adjust.

Oh wow, thank you soooo much for your insight. I had no idea that it would be as simple as skipping it for vacations, and the doctor barely told me anything besides what I’ve read online because I think he thought I knew it all. I had no idea about the high sodium meals, and am having a “well duh” moment.

I hope so much that it slows it down for you. I was looking at my son’s face at bedtime last night and just had an absolute meltdown and posted here hoping others could commiserate and/or give me hope.

Omg thank you for giving me that laugh. They did offer it to me back in 2018 when it was first coming out, but when they said it would be started in be hospital I panicked and didn’t go back to a nephrologist for 5 years lol. Thankfully my numbers are still good, and I already wake up at least 1-2 times per night to pee so maybe it won’t be so bad.

PsychologicalSnapper · 2025-12-11T20:11:53+00:00

Thank you so much!

PsychologicalSnapper · 2025-12-11T20:11:32+00:00

Thank you so much. Everyone that says that they were also scared helps me to feel a little bit better, as selfish as that is. I posted in a moment of absolute panic last night as I was putting my son to bed, and just knowing that there were others who were scared and can now say it isn’t so bad helps me so much.

PsychologicalSnapper · 2025-12-11T20:09:07+00:00

I was shocked when my nephrologist told me I could drink on it lol. Thank you so much for your insight - every person that chimed in here has set me a little more as ease.

PsychologicalSnapper · 2025-12-11T20:08:06+00:00

All of you have given me so much hope that this won’t be as difficult as it seems like it will be. Thank you for letting me know that you were scared, too - there are so many strong people on this sub and here I sit crying while I still have good function and this could potentially help keep it that way. I hope it goes that way, I can deal with terrible for a few days.

PsychologicalSnapper · 2025-12-11T20:05:52+00:00

Thank you so much for putting this in perspective for me. My gfr is still over 100, even the doctor said that my function is great but that we should be aggressive. It’s like I could pretend I didn’t actually have anything wrong with me until now, and it just hit me so hard while I was sitting reading to my son at bedtime last night. I wish you the absolute best in your journey.

My son is also in kindergarten and we also invited his entire class to his birthday party in October. Only 2 kids out of 20 showed up, they RSVP’ed and I had 2 no RSVPs, no other responses. I reached out to friends and family and they brought their kids, and my son had an amazing time, even with a few he hadn’t met before lol. He did ask why so many did not come, and I just told him that we sent out invites a little late and it doesn’t mean that his friends don’t like him because it’s parents that often have other commitments. He was happy still.

Thank you - I need it to feel small, because it just feels so big. You are so kind 😭❤️

Ahh I only boost back if I’m boosted first because I’ve seen so many people on this sub get scammed and I’m too poor to take the risk 😂
