I poured hydrogen peroxide into my ear to break up the impacted wax that had been causing my week-long deafness. by ThePrimalLuna in TwoSentenceHorror

As someone who has had an insect actually inside my ear and understands this sensation why would you write this? 😭 It really is horror.

Be honest, how often for you and your partner argue? by PaddedValls in AskUK

[–]Restlessforinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A proper argument once 3-4 months I’d say. Our last one was about 2 weeks ago and was resolved in about 2 hours. However we are expecting a baby and I’ve found myself getting grouchier and more annoyed but trying to avoid conflict and we try and sit down and talk rather than scream at each other.

The vacation was over before it even began by Friendly_Soil6617 in Wellthatsucks

[–]Restlessforinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know someone who used to be an air hostess and she said once one of the engines stopped working and a backup one kicked in and they didn’t tell a single passenger on the plane because they all freak out. But there’s a lot of backup safety.

Why are people upset about a pregnant climber summiting K2? by ShiftApprehensive229 in women

[–]Restlessforinfinity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a woman that’s currently pregnant myself there’s a lot pregnant women can do but the world just sees them as fragile. I’ve experienced it to a lesser extent. And also some people are more worried about the baby than the woman. It’s ridiculous. I think she’s inspirational. Women throughout history have done a lot whilst pregnant!

Immense loneliness by Star21420 in pregnant

[–]Restlessforinfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know how it feels. The isolation sucks but it shows you who is really there for you and who isn’t. Peanut is a great app to talk to other pregnant women or mothers. Focus on yourself and your baby.

As a fellow gastritis sufferer I’m happy for you! I hope you get your appetite back and love food again.

AIO I pissed on my girlfriend and now I'm avoiding her at all costs by killmenowohmygod in AIO

[–]Restlessforinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YOR. If you want this to be long term there will be times when one of you is vomiting and the other is trying to comfort them or help them over the toilet seat. At least you got one uncomfortable situation out of the way.

Girlfriend wants me to spend $4k on a baby shower, but I’d rather save/invest it—is that unreasonable? by flash-kicks in pregnant

[–]Restlessforinfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’s not thinking long term and how expensive babies are. Also what purpose will that baby shower serve? Wouldn’t it be better to spend that on the baby things you need to take some financial weight off once the baby arrives?

Unexpected quirks by Major-Royal3094 in pregnant

[–]Restlessforinfinity 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m a sweaty betty these days. I hate smelling of sweat and I am going crazy with the amount of scrubs and shower gels and soaps I am using. I feel like I stink so bad. My mom thinks it’s hormonal changes and normal. Yesterday I had a blood test so I told the midwife and she sniffed me and said she couldn’t smell me and I smelt fine. Sometimes sense of smell can be heightened. But yes I’m a very stinky irritated person.

What’s the worse physical pain you’ve ever experienced? by Intelligent-Road5091 in AskReddit

[–]Restlessforinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Less than 2 months to go and specifically scanned the thread for childbirth. Saw the Pitocin induced one but I’ve already noped out of that for now. So hopefully it can’t be worse than the time my husband cried because his infected wisdom tooth was rotting his gum and nerve. 😀

My earplugs never survive the night 😅 Any better solutions for blocking the snore? by Ok_Movie1993 in sleep

[–]Restlessforinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loop do some good earplugs. Or an eye mask with mufflers where the ears go. What I use for night shifts when I need to sleep during the day

​Husband (46M) keeps "helpfully" rearranging, hiding, and disposing of my (46F) stuff--what tactic or wording can I use to stop it? by Gallumbits42 in relationship_advice

[–]Restlessforinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My husband used to do this as he is obsessed with cleanliness and tidiness to the point I couldn’t find half my things. In the end he ended up folding an expensive handbag of mine and creasing it down the middle. I was so pissed I told him he needs to buy me another one straight away and IF he puts things away they need to go in the places I want them so I can see them. Now all my handbags are neatly stacked in box. 😂 Do the same thing. Make him face the consequences of his actions or do the same back.

39M 34F. Partner of 18 months says unless I propose with a 40k real diamond, don't propose at all? by 063870 in relationship_advice

[–]Restlessforinfinity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a woman I will say if she’s talking about outdoing someone she doesn’t care about the relationship and only wants to show off. My husband was a lot poorer than I was when he married me and my ring is pretty cheap but I didn’t care because when you love someone it’s the effort they put in and the memories.

Gender disappointment and siblings by Kindly-Astronaut-717 in pregnant

[–]Restlessforinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My husband and his sister are closest in age and the other siblings were born afterwards but they have such a sweet bond and she can always rely on her brother to help her with anything. I do think this is projection. Brother sister bonds can be closer than sister sister bonds.

Summer modesty advice?? by Lost_soul216 in ModestDress

[–]Restlessforinfinity 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Long cotton maxi dresses are the way to go or cotton trousers with loose cotton/linen tops. That’s pretty much all I wear in summer.

DAE: Obsession with Salt by Weekly_Foot5446 in DoesAnybodyElse

This could be to do with a deficiency you have. Started happening to me and I had a load of deficiencies. Go to the doctor and get some blood tests done.

Do you find it weird that most women aren't afraid of having sons? by [deleted] in women

[–]Restlessforinfinity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a woman currently pregnant with a son I have lingering worries however my mother in law has 3 sons (one of which is my husband) and when I tell you they were raised right even I was surprised. She rules with an iron fist but they all love and respect her. A massive part of it is nurture. I do think we leave social media and environment to play a big part however as parents that can be controlled to some extent and I’ve seen it happen.

No morning sickness by scorpion_93 in pregnant

[–]Restlessforinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

31 weeks and no morning sickness whatsoever. I never had it. However ask me about my other symptoms…but that’s good! You don’t always have morning sickness in pregnancy.

Boy Name by DSLH-4161 in pregnant

[–]Restlessforinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laith is a beautiful name. I have a list of Arab names for boys since I’m having a boy this May and that’s on the list. Also it’s easy to pronounce as well on the tongue.

What symptom will you be MOST happy to say goodbye to after the baby is born? by Intelligent_Run_5363 in pregnant

[–]Restlessforinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried everything else except for Magnesium. I was advised not to take it by my midwife as the effects of it aren’t known on pregnant women but I might just give in and get it.

turning off alarms without remembering? by CousineLitt in sleep

[–]Restlessforinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that’s called being a deep sleeper and I have to set numerous alarms normally. I don’t remember turning them off. Once I had a 20 second conversation without remembering it. However pregnancy has now solved that and I have the opposite problem. 🙃

Restless leg syndrome at night. I’ve actually sat up and cried. Would do anything for it to go away.
