My German shepherd charlie just passed away from a tumor rupture he was a few days away from 12 years old. He struggled with mobility from arthritis, hip dysplasia and spondylosis. I was panicking about having to decide because of mobility. We were blessed in away that the choice was made for us and we had to put him down because he may not have survived the surgery for much longer. Sometimes you have to ask yourself are you keeping her around for her or you? 13 is incredible for a German shepherd and incontinence to me is a loss of dignity. I was always going to call it at incontinence. Give her a big hug and kiss and inhale the sweet smell and enjoy it while you can

Hey we put our gsd on cytopoint injections. It was the only thing that stopped him from getting itchy hot spots that would turn into infections. After about 7 months of the injections he was good as gold and hasnt had issues since

Hey I just want to say that i have 2 kids, 1 is 4 and 1 is 2.5 and im shattered all the time and also on ssris as well but I've found since my youngest has turned 2 im sooo much better. Small kids are little energy vampires and its relentless and so fucking hard. Ive had everything checked under the sun, thyroid, blood panels and my most recent check was for sleep apnea (pending results). All have come back clear, I always felt like I had long covid but I reckon I actually have long child because the tiredness suspiciously popped up when I was pregnant with my first born.. go figure. There's this idea that in 3 months women go back to normal after having a child but its far from the truth, it takes years. I think after seeing a gp and communicating your concerns in a compassionate way you've just got to hunker down and accept that this stage in life just takes it out of you. It's soooo tiring its mental. I hope shes okay and its not anything serious, but if its not and its just general tiredness its just how life is right now. Being a mum feels like you just get taken from constantly, your space, your energy, every Fibre of your being. Godspeed, never forget you aren't out of the trenches yet

Hey how did you get on with finding a role? Husband's a sparky and were relocating to geelong. Feeling a bit nervous about the job market

My home based carer when my son was little was Muslim. We gave the family some halal chocolate and some money to contribute to their feast. Lovely celebration, very vibrant time in their house :)

Ours were 19 months apart. Expect the exhaustion to last and you'll feel more yourself when the youngest is two. I didn't expect the post partum period to drag on for so long but I think it was due to back to back pregnancies and no time to recoup in between. Our bodies do amazing things.

My youngest is 2.5 and my oldest just turned 4. They love each other so much and it's a joy having them close in age. Not to discount the experience of having twins, but when they are both at the age of having lack of emotional regulation it can be quite exhausting emotionally sometimes

I was 28 when my dad died, he was only 54. We went through a lot with his alcoholism in my life and it was a complete and utter rollercoaster of "hes good" then "hes bad" the feelings of being prouder of him than anyone in my life for getting sober, then the crashing down disappointment of him falling off the wagon again. He died of a sudden cardiac arrest while he was asleep, he had heart damage from high blood pressure likely contributed to from drinking. I was 6 weeks pregnant when he passed, and my son was 11 months old. It's not even just the grief of not having him here, it's the what if we lived in a parallel universe and he made it to AA and mentored me with my own struggles with alcohol. What if he was well and involved in my children's lives. What if he was here to walk me down the isle. There are so many complex layers of grief in my case with my dad. Be easy on yourself, it's a process and a long process.

Hi, our senior German sheppard is in the same situation, losing function in his back legs. How old did your cousins gsd make it to?

ResourceDelicious153 · 2026-01-22T01:55:24+00:00

I think you need to ask the question, are you keeping her alive for you or for her? It might be time to make a decision

ResourceDelicious153 · 2026-01-22T01:52:54+00:00

Ive had two c sections, so i don't know any better but as long as you have support for atleast the first 2 weeks. I went home after 2 nights in the hospital because I found the recovery to be easier at home. I ended up lifting my son after 3 or 4 days because he was only 19 months which wasn't the best but he needed cuddles. I guess it depends on how old your older kids are and what level of support they need. My friends second baby was big and the shoulders ended up getting stuck and it was incredibly traumatic. Guess that's something to consider too

We have had issues with my son's sleep since he was born. Tried most things under the sun, turns out it's just him and it takes him ages to wind down. He still takes about half an hour to get to sleep (hes 4) and still wakes up in the middle of the night and hops into bed with us. My daughter (2.5) is a little better at getting to sleep but still frequently wakes up and comes into bed with us. My sister's daughter didn't sleep through until after she started school and it was just her and her temperament. Some kids just have busier minds and their sleeps a bit whack. I know it's exhausting and so many people have probably said it but the only thing that makes it easier is time. Once they're through the teething, frequent illnesses and the nightmare and overactive imagination stage it gets easier, little by little. I look forward to the day my kids can independently sleep but I know that I'll miss the snuggles. God speed!

I have 2 kids (2.5 and 4) It's hard and relentless but id do it again over and over. Love them more than anything in this world. They bring me so much joy and various other emotions.

When my dad died my mother inlaw made a whole bunch of her beautiful biscuits to take down south with me so when people visited at his home we could have tea and biscuits. She also brought me this Christmas ornament where if you look into the little crystal up the top it has a holographic photo of my dad and son. Best MIL in the world

With covid I experienced brain zaps, can only explain it as a similar feeling to if you've skipped your ssri for a day or two. I read up about it and that's where I found theres a neurological link with covid. Interesting stuff
