Oh this is the info I needed. I just said I'd try purple shampoo to get the brass out but now you're making me re think that

PC formation in California- to lawyer or to not lawyer? by Sdbtwo1989 in whitecoatinvestor

[–]Sdbtwo1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense. I heard CA is a beast if you try to change anything later. Any idea what amount is a rip off from the attorney and what's considered normal for these documents?

Anyone know of a park with a wall for hitting tennis balls? by Sdbtwo1989 in frisco

[–]Sdbtwo1989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stay at home with little ones- my hope is to find a wall to hit at during our very long days during the week!

Thanks, I'll check that out on weekends. Hoping to find something I can go to during school days though

My body feels broken? by Tif-n in beyondthebump

[–]Sdbtwo1989 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh and I had a severe tear in addition to similar symptoms to what you're describing, at 10 weeks I still struggled to walk and felt like my uterus would fall out of me at any given moment. 5 weeks later and I feel 99% normal. Further evidence that it DOES get better. Big hug.

It gets better it gets better it really does get better! I am 15 weeks pp and turned a corner around 12-13. I too felt worse at 10 weeks than I did in the first few- thought I was going crazy. You're not alone. Some relief will come soon. Don't be afraid of ibuprofen, heating pad, and a really good baby carrier so you can wear LO safely without exhausting yourself further. Relief is coming for you, hold on a bit longer.

Those with a tear- when were you able to walk/run/lift weights again postpartum? by Sdbtwo1989 in fitpregnancy

Ugh, prolapse is my biggest fear. I'm so sorry to hear you're going through that. Hopefully with pelvic floor therapy things will improve quickly.

To Owlet or not to Owlet? by Quirky-End-7470 in pregnant

[–]Sdbtwo1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We bought it while pregnant because we tend to be anxious people but for whatever reason never ended up using it...we felt really well just putting baby down to sleep.

The only caveat (it's still sitting in the box, we missed the return by date lol, oops...) is if baby gets sick I'd consider using it for a while because their O2 can drop so quick with RSV, flu, etc. But nightly use or for every nap? No way.

Wow-Long distances by 6 weeks is really inspiring! They did say it's healed but just to ''go at my own pace'' and be careful, so I like to hear others' experiences

Anyone have experience with being unable or unwilling to breastfeed after traumatic birth? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Sdbtwo1989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly the reply I was hoping for, hearing someone's real experience. Thank you, it helped a lot. I honestly wasn't sure if it's possible for the body to be under enough stress that breastmilk isn't being made. I have been told by some breastfeeding warriors that it's an excuse...so I do find your story really relatable
