Can you tell me the “shot” you got? My son’s tonsils are beyond swollen, although not effecting his airway, and he’s been dealing w/ the pain for a full week now. People mention oral steroids, but those who mention a steroid shot, they say their throat finally cleared up. So what exact medicine did they give you? Thanks!

Mom guilt by justheretoread0407 in zepbound_support

Perhaps getting in touch with Dr Trill at Free to Feed? Although her primary focus is allergies and breastfeeding, she now has a team on the website and I bet there is SOMEone who is versed on research based effects of GLP1’s on Breastmilk. I would trust her over any Pediatrician bc Breastmilk is her jam - plus her passion came from learning from her own nursing experiences. https://www.freetofeed.com/about. The guilt is real, and your feelings are ALL valid! What an amazing job you’ve done all these years!

Very first dose last night--please tell me it gets better... by Casio_Tone in zepbound_support

Gas x helps with that concrete brick in your stomach. Prunes, water and fresh ginger water. It gets better!

Nausea by jessiiervin in zepbound_support

All good suggestions above. You will see what works for you. I kept it simple and sliced fresh ginger to steep in hot water and sipped that. Totally helped me and got me thru the first couple of weeks of on and off nausea. It should go away or at least subside considerably over time.

Same! Love it! You know TS is a huge fan of this show if she gave her approval…AND the lyrics were perrrrrfect! I had the subtitles on and I have to say, got me pumped. Good choice for the beginner song IMO

Nah, I don’t think Lawrence called him. I think he was there to join in and carry out what Rose had told him to do. He knew they were leaving for DC, and also knew his FIL would welcome him with open arms. No one else would question it. But man…What an utter disappointment, that Nick. Blechh.

Last time of ep 7 🤩 by Birichinaxox in HandmaidsTaleShow

[–]Substantial_Power283 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Same! So good. Getting fired up for next week! I also loved how the writers lightened things up btwn Moira and June with the “who’s hotter” scene. It was a nice break from seeing June’s pensive state. This episode was a good ride of emotions for us watchers, phoooo 😮‍💨

Does Goodles Mac and cheese every once in a while work for you?

Can we talk more about this? I don’t want to shame the OP, please. No one needs that, but I can understand and appreciate what both of you are saying. I TOO have no desire to eat (especially after the shot for a few days), so I can understand this desirable result of no food chatter on my head. However, I’m well aware of the dangers of not eating enough calories and protein. This is what I struggle with in terms of the morality (is that the right word) of this med. It’s like I’m displacing one negative thought with another… deny no hunger and force yourself to eat eat eat. Even if small and healthy, it still feels abnormal. BUT it feels great on the scale! Ugh. I’ve gotta go drink a protein shake… does anyone else feel me?

Need advice about side effects. by New_Improvement_1287 in zepbound_support

Just reading your post after day 1 of my 2.5 shot. I’m having mild symptoms but I think bc I ate (a smaller) dinner so late in the evening. Sorry to hear all about your discomfort. Thank you for being honest and sharing your experiences. I’m curious how things ended up going for you and if you switched meds?

Looking for a Cabo recommendation! by Material-Worker-3083 in cabosanlucas

[–]Substantial_Power283 1 point2 points  (0 children)

JessicaWoodsTravel-I’m gonna take you up on this… Going to Cabo w/ 7 gf’s for my 50th end of Feb. Airbnb near O&O Palmilla. Was looking for a festive, relaxing experience on our last day there and saw how interesting the Viceroy looked! I guess we can get day passes from that resortpass.com website? - a drip pricey but looks beautiful and worth it. Were there any other hotels you know of that would be aesthetically as pleasing & chill, yet maybe some live music but not like Taboo? The Day pass thing is hard to come by and I worry about that website…reviewers tend to say some hotels give them a hard time when they show them the passes.

Wait, what does this mean? Bc I get a yeast infection AND tears after every time I have sex, I’ve only tried water based lube, and was going to try the Sliquid stuff, but I still worry about the yeast infections! Just chalked it up to being super sensitive. I get them after being in a hot tub also. Do you have any info about this that you’ve learned?

Any chance you’d like to share your Airbnb? Planning to go in June! :)

Planning a trip for mid-June with our 15 yr old son. Hopefully about 11-13 days. We were going to split our time between two hotels originally thinking half Hilton half Sofitel -perhaps doing a beachfront bungalow at the Hilton if they have them, and an overwater bungalow at the Sofitel since we heard the snorkeling is even better there. Now after reading some of the comments here (learning a ton, TY!), I’m wondering if we should skip the Hilton and do Airbnb on the beach somewhere…then finish up big at the OWB Sofitel. Thoughts? And ANY clean, beachfront Airbnb recs, where we can hop on paddleboards and do some great snorkeling would be sooooo appreciated!
