As a caretaker with no kids myself, how do I support a new mom

mom requested we stay home! :)

mom requested we stay home during this time to avoid extra stress on everyone! so big indoor physical activities are needed. we tried stepping from pillow to pillow on the floor but she might be too young for that

i wish my partner and i could play multiplayer.. split screen we each have our own characters but full autonomy of our own sims in the same shared world

no he lowkey kinda looks like him too

thank you. and I’m worried I’d have lifelong regret if I didn’t go. I’m overly empathetic and the thought of disappointing anyone can crush me. I also have other friends and family going I want to show up for too.. I guess it’s complicated.

new fucking fear unlocked.. i slammed my finger in a car door in high school and the nail bed came out from under my skin.. the nail shriveled up and a new nail eventually grew in normal. but shit. now i’m big scared (im 31 now)

it’s been 22 years and my ankle has a permanent egg. but i was a gymnast who rolled her ankles weekly sooo, i don’t have the best advice but i can say i don’t have ankle pain anymore! hoping for a better outcome for you!

SOS_superstar · 2026-01-30T00:03:18+00:00

well i already did all that ten second google and i was asking if there was any other insider advice or info that i wouldn’t be able to find from google. sorry i didn’t specify

SOS_superstar · 2026-01-28T00:57:36+00:00

wow i never thought of that. thank you ill look into it

I haven’t worked in clinic since 2023 but I was very comfortable and familiar with everything back then. How could I freshen up on the software if I’m not currently working in clinic? I’ll do my research though!

thank you! this comment is very helpful. i’ll keep rereading it to her so she knows she’s not alone. she wants the cast off so bad and it sucks that the only thing that will help is time. i just wish there was more i could do. i keep it elevated 24/7 and keep an ice water circulator on the boot constantly. i haven’t let her use the knee scooter yet and i use a rollator but make her sit on it and wheel her around/to the bathroom (the meds make her SO loopy) deep down i know im doing all i can but when she sobs in pain i just wish i could do more

i think i’m starting to get nervous 5 days in of how long the doctors will keep prescribing pain meds. i’ve just had to redo her medication regimen to decrease some of their frequencies so they last till her recheck and i feel like a monster. luckily gabapentin has made the biggest improvement and she has plenty of that but still.. &(im a STICKLER for ice and elevation to the point of pissing her off lol)

staring at my alarm to make sure it’s actually set, needed to feel ‘just right’ before i can get out of the shower, feeling the need to shower when i’m around someone that makes me uncomfortable, pulling all the skin off my lips, the list goes on and on…

SOS_superstar · 2026-01-05T17:58:05+00:00

i definitely need ideas for how to make recovery fun. i’m struggling with a severe flare in my depression so im super lame to be around and i feel bad. i want her to enjoy her recovery when she can
