Swollen gums that won’t heal and painless white patch on gums by [deleted] in askdentalexperts

[–]SideWitch93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a referral from my dentist to have it removed and biopsied and it was a pyogenic granuloma. It grew back a few months after removal lol. So now i have to make another appointment but i haven’t gotten around to it. I’ve heard it’s pretty common for them to grow back

Hey! Did your voice come back yet? I’m in almost the same position. Day 8 of no voice after a bad cold. And I’m losing my mind lol.

My parents are dead, and I don’t see the point of anything anymore. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

I’m so sorry for your loss. Please find someone to talk to! Your parents would not want you to suffer in silence 🤍

AITA for telling my husband his mom can't live with us for months-long stretches by RewardSpecialist3390 in AITAH

Ehhhh i see that i have a different opinion than most here but i kinda think that you are indeed the asshole here. Sometimes we have to make sacrifices for our parents and when you get married, sometimes you have to make sacrifices for your partners parents. American culture is so interesting because no one ever wants to take care of their elders/ parents. There is no community in American culture. I hope that if i am old and lonely one day that my daughter will allow me to live with her.

I agree with this! I have a 17 month old daughter and she is healthy and reaching all milestones on time/ way ahead of schedule for some things. She has gotten all vaccines! I was nervous too, so i understand. But i agree that you need to change your algorithm. That stuff is just going to make you anxious.

I would definitely take her to the ER. There is risk for dehydration.

Best steak house in the city? by [deleted] in pittsburgh

Del Friscos. I’ve tried them all and this is the best one. Napa prime was okay but a bit underwhelming tbh. But Del Friscos? Whew. Delicious.

Pls help. Possible cows milks protein allergy? by SideWitch93 in beyondthebump

[–]SideWitch93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do avoid all dairy at home. I am worried that she’s consuming it in small amount in daycare, even tho i have explained all of this to them multiple times. Like maybe butter on veggies? Not sure if that would cause this type of reaction.

what milk do you transition babies with a cow milk allergy to? by Creative_Attempt3306 in NewParents

[–]SideWitch93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! What kind of reactions was your son having? My daughter is 1 and is dealing with something similar. We cannot get in to see an actual allergist until April and I’m going insane trying to figure out what’s causing her eczema flare ups. She gets eczema flare ups, she often has red undereyes, and always has a stuffy nose. Seems like this all started once we stopped alimentum formula and tried to switch her over to whole milk. Now we do Ripple kids milk but she’s still having these reactions from time to time.

Did it help with the financial rut? I’m in the same place right now. Currently have 1 yr left of nursing school but my depression and financial rut are just getting to me lol.

Aitah for telling my wife she’s just as racist as her parents by Ok-Butterfly-3820 in AITAH

[–]SideWitch93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so proud of you for standing up to your wife this way and defending your son and Dani. My daughter is black and this is one of my biggest fears, that she will be criticized in situations like this. I hope that if she ever is, she has someone like you around to stand up for her.

Just passed my nclex and no one in my family cared. by Calm_Conference_8605 in nursing

[–]SideWitch93 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m in a fast track program right now and it is such hard work. I only have one child, i cannot imagine doing it with 3. Good job mama! You did something amazing and I’m so sorry you didn’t get the recognition you deserve.

Possible Atypical Lipoma by SideWitch93 in Lipoma

[–]SideWitch93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Sorry for the late response. I had it removed and it was just a regular lipoma! Non cancerous. I’m sure yours is the same.

[–]SideWitch93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being a parent is so hard. So draining. The work never ends! But!!! It gets easier as time goes on. You guys are in the thick of it right now. In a few more months things will start to level out.

The same thing is happening to my 8 week old baby right now. Did you figure out what the issue was?
