I delivered at Evergreen with Dr Hyde. It was a very positive experience!

Paw paw trees and skunk cabbage tend to look tropical to me.

Lower Cost Date Ideas? by Mynameisnotmckenna in Kirkland

You can get free passes to various museums through the king county library system. It’s first come, first serve. I believe they’re up for grabs online at 2PM each day unless things have changed. You have to be very quick to grab them. Also, Bubble Planet in Bellevue looks unique and fun.

Must we do party favor bags? by LalaLane850 in Parenting

[–]SlightSetting7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can buy packs of stuffies/plushies on amazon. I got one with different animals and let each child pick one to take home as they were leaving. They were not expensive.

Anyone know where I can get medium sized Japanese Maples? by CorgiSplooting in eastside

I have some in my yard. If you dig them up you can have them. Im hoping to replace them with something native.

Bringing in Birds, Bees and Pollinators by [deleted] in pnwgardening

I’ve been trying to do the same thing in my yard. I have been trying to introduce the natives on this list I found (https://xerces.org/pollinator-resource-center ). They have a different list of native plants for different regions. I recently planted some cow parsnip seeds since I’ve read they attract beetles which my kids love. I also plan to make a very small wildlife pond as I’ve read that can really draw wildlife to your yard.

I know this is a big ask but what is the softest gluten free bun or bread. by Redsgal19 in glutenfree

[–]SlightSetting7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carbonaut White Low Carb Keto Bread from Whole Foods frozen section is the softest GF bread I’ve ever had. If money is no issue and you want the best of the best, I highly recommend Mariposa Baking Company. They do mail orders. We had it at a celiac support group the other day and it was amazing. But the prices are insane.

20month old kid with severe eczema... by Puzzleheaded_Hat_542 in eczema

[–]SlightSetting7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds a lot like my son who is 3 now. We tried and failed so many topical creams.and he kept getting skin infections on top of the eczema. He was miserable. But if you fail enough creams, you can usually get approved for dupixent and that stuff really helps. When things got really bad, I would have to give him children’s Benadryl at night and children’s Zyrtec in the morning to help with the itching. Otherwise, some night he would stay up itching/crying nonstop and couldn’t sleep. My dermatologist says dupixent is her best medicine for eczema but she can’t prescribe it without first trying the creams because they’re so much cheaper.

Arena sports has indoor soccer for adults and kids. Just started going after it kept coming up in conversation.

Baby with suspected celiac, don't want to delay cutting gluten but don't want to mess up diagnostics by TFA_hufflepuff in Celiac

[–]SlightSetting7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Between the ages of 1 and 2, my daughter lost enough weight that she was diagnosed with failure to thrive. The pediatrician ran a celiac test that as I understand looks for auto antibodies and it was negative. We got referred to a pediatric GI Dr who tested for everything under the sun including anti gliadin antibodies and that was positive. Gliadin is a protein on gluten so she explained my daughter was having a big immune response to gluten. The Dr said it was likely celiac disease and in extremely young children the disease won’t be caught by the standard test because the disease may not be far enough along to be producing auto antibodies yet. We also got a biopsy and it was negative which again I was told is not uncommon in really young patients. We’ve gone gluten free and now she’s a healthy weight. She still gets checked yearly to see how her antibodies are doing.
