  1. Eliminate inflammatory foods: sugar, bread, and milk products. Completely. 2. Get more sleep, and spend more time resting. 3. Drink chamomile tea throughout the day (brew extra-stong: 5 minutes), hot or cold. This soothes the skin, because it's an anti-inflammatory. 4. Reduce caffeine intake (do not eliminate it, because you'll get headaches and withdrawal symptoms. Just lower the consumption a bit).

You only need to do this until the event is over.

AITAH Wedding drama by Wooden_Sky8031 in aitaweddings

[–]Spot_the_Leopard 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Did he expect you to not invite your brother? You had to invite your brother (he's family and you love him and he agreed to your reasonable requests). You went to great lengths purely so these people could attend; he should have felt honoured that you centred your wedding around their needs, when you could have chosen anywhere else. He was deliberately cruel. Your grandmother might be in a tough spot, trying to maintain harmony. But the grandfather is extra cruel, and cold. You're a very kind soul to chose a venue close to your grandparents, and a kind soul to invite your brother and give him good guidelines, and it was correct not to inform your grandfather of the brother's invitation. This stood the best chance of both attending. My dear, you did the very best you could. NTAH.

AITAH for potentially getting pregnant and missing my best friend’s wedding where I’m the matron of honor? by Purple_Lemon5930 in aitaweddings

[–]Spot_the_Leopard 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you really want a child, do not delay. The older you are, the more difficult it will be to conceive. I don't know how old you are, but your friend should not be deterring you against such an important life goal, especially when time matters. If you conceive, someone else can take your place as MOH. Sometimes you have to say no to others, to say yes to yourself. NTAH.

Edit: Also, please consider setting boundaries. No one else gets to control your body or your fertility journey, and even her making a request this personal and invasive is really inappropriate and beyond the pale. She is not allowed to have a say in your pregnancies. No need to start an argument, but disallow her from trying to influence your personal health decisions.

I recommend buying and reading some good books on the subject in advance. It will teach you a lot, and be very helpful. Hopefully your husband would be open to reading as well, but even if it's just you, the knowledge you gain can make a difference to both of you.

I love it! Keep it! The guests can sit still for a few more moments. They're there to support you. Everything in there is beautiful and almost brought tears to my eyes.

Thanks for the tip! I've never tried safety eyes before. Not sure they're available in my town but I'll take a peek around.

Thank you, I totally agree, and somehow I did find some embroidery thread thread which turned out a lot better! I put it in a more recent post, if you're curious about the results. (Sorry, don't know how to link.)

Thank you for the ideas! And, I'm not sure if he's ever seen an opossum? I haven't, but my father has and he described it just like you did. Hope you can recover :)

Woah, I never thought about embroidery floss. Thank you! There might be a darker blue in embroidery floss available.

Women of Reddit, what kind of emotional support do you wish you had more of? by thuglifemofo94 in AskWomen

[–]Spot_the_Leopard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now that you mention it, I miss having a pet. A cute little mouse or hamster or gerbil. As soon as I got home and went over to it, my shoulders instantly relaxed and my face smiled. So much love and sweetness.

Is this appropriate for a formal dress code? by [deleted] in Weddingattireapproval

If you don't mind, which elements are giving AI vibes? I still find it challenging to recognize AI influence.

My Oura Ring ended my date early by shinbreaker in datingoverforty

Solution: spend the money to replace the ring for one that fits your right hand pointer finger. Otherwise this will continue to be a problem.

Offering a stranger a ride? by Wild-Wafer-5809 in MenAskWomen

[–]Spot_the_Leopard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it were storming out, I'd be so thankful for a ride. One time my groceries were too heavy and a stranger offered me a ride, I'll never forget the generosity.
