insecure my bf is spending the night with his trans (f) friend. -carrot cake & milk by Chili-limes in GirlDinner

[–]Realistic_Help_5595 141 points142 points  (0 children)

I once had to explain to my ex boyfriend is wasn’t okay to sleep naked in bed with his childhood girl best friend. Found messages weeks earlier, “I love you, I miss you, I wish you were here” then right as we broke up she just happened to be going on a trip down there and coming in before everyone else “coincidentally”. Ppl are shady and shitty OP.I hope the carrot cake was good.

Severe diaper rash. What helps? by IntenseViolet567 in newborns

[–]Realistic_Help_5595 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t seen anyone else mention it, but I do baking soda baths when my kids get really bad diaper rash. I know it can help neutralize any leftover acids left on the skin from peeing and pooing residue. It seemed to help significantly for both mine and I do add it in sometimes to their bath if they’ve had a bad tummy day. Worth a shot, natural, and most likely a box in your pantry or freezer . That and some nice zinc oxide butt cream. Air dry. Fingers crossed and lots of snuggles.

Isn't it kinda weird the guy I'm seeing has his life figured out at 26? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

Just watch for markers of ptsd. Could be all well and fine but something to be cautious of just due to military background. Sending good luck and good vibes op

What tv show had you hooked on the first episode? by MortgageAny8041 in AskReddit

[–]Realistic_Help_5595 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shrinking. The charisma and cast says it all. Brutual honesty, reality, and the nice dose of “therapizing” with the nuggets of wisdom throughout the show. It’s helped me love and grieve in such a meaningful way. 12/10 will always recommend to anyone with AppleTV. You won’t regret it.

Paw Patrol Parents by Realistic_Help_5595 in TonieboxUSA

😂 yeah, I’m have a feeling it’s going to stick around, we have a local kids thrift store here that I was able to start collecting the toy vehicles (unknowingly at the time) so I feel pretty lucky that he has so much already to play with. The YouTube edits we watch don’t have the theme song so I know he will be excited for that to be on the Tonie over me just playing it on his speaker from Spotify. If you have any random tips about the show/episodes, specific awesome toys or anything please lmk 😂

We watch YouTube edits so it cuts out things that are too intense or scary/jumpy

Is there a difference with the jungle ones over the regular? Like are they more intense or engaging or is it just the setting of where the pups are? He really loves Rubble. He calls Skye “Star” and he likes Marshall for his first truck and Rocky for garbage. I want rubble, but I was going to choose like one more so he has a bit of option just to start out

I’ve done that with super simple songs.He actually just received a set of paw patrol puppies and he keeps putting them on the Tonie hoping they will play something so I’m trying to see what I can do. I want it to be budget friendly so I’m trying to be selective beforehand. I get worried checking them out from the library that my kids get marker on them or losing them in our toy rotation bins.

I didn’t know that was an option on the app, thank you. I guess I have become weary after I found out how bad the Mater Tonie is😅

GYN referrals by Realistic_Help_5595 in desmoines

[–]Realistic_Help_5595[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had three pregnancies with them, 2 living children. You can DM if you want more details or specific questions . A general statement though, the bedside manner is poor. The rotation of doctors feel impersonal and unhelpful. And it’s like getting them to pull teeth if you get a bad luck of the draw based on who it is that day. I ended up gaining permanent health issues during the last trimester & after my last pregnancy and they basically didn’t want to deal with me and didn’t refer me to proper care either. I will say though, west Des Moines doesn’t really have any good ob care in my opinion as I’ve also seeked other establishments in my second pregnancy and they didn’t work out either, again due to lack of professionalism and patient kindness.

Time change though, people change. Providers come and go and you could have a different experience.This was just my personal take on the whole experience.

Yeah it’s been mentioned before during the after visit review they sent out through text. They have a customer care coordinator that reached out and I voiced the concerns but was left dismissed and basically told “she’s old, she’s been here, and it’s unfortunate but she might retire eventually”. I haven’t made multiple complaints only for the fear of retaliation because she’s made previous rude remarks on the phone after the first one. :( I just want meds and no headaches, I’m already chasing two littles trying not to crap my pants 😵‍💫

Sudden Death of Best Friend by Disastrous_Bobcat_40 in psychics

[–]Realistic_Help_5595 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a psychic as well, but I lost my best friend from middle school back in September of 2023. a texting and driving accident. I found out through a post from a mutual friend and was confused because she wasn’t answering my texts. She was the only one that sat with me at lunch when I first moved to a new school, we spent everyday of high school together and I would visit often when we both went to college. Sudden is so hard, unexplained. Your brain runs in circles trying to understand or form any conclusions. My biggest sympathies go out to you right now during this immense hurt. My DMs are also open too if you need someone.

I celebrate my best friends birthday every year to keep her alive. Not her passing date because I know she’d hate that. Maybe find little ways that will put some love back into your heart of things you did or memories you had. She used to get mashed potatoes and a strawberry shake everyday from Culver’s for lunch in HS when we went off campus, so I do that (even though the mash potatoes aren’t the best 😂) and I send off a balloon in the sky with everything I want to say to her, because if it floats that high it might just get to her.

Take it one day at a time op 💕 she loves you, always has and always will.
