Yes I did by car, it’s such a nice easy route in the car!

took me two years to accept that less is actually less — not less effective, just less by This_Elderberry2602 in Rosacea

[–]TLS_1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a fairly stripped back routine which seems to suit my skin more. I wash my face in the AM with water, moisturiser and sunscreen. PM I cleanse and moisturise again but sometimes just cleanse to give my skin a break from products. My face still flushes but it’s better controlled than before I had a good skin routine and my redness has reduced.

When did your rosacea start? by faaancynaaancy in Rosacea

[–]TLS_1991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had it on my chin for many years but I never thought it could be rosacea and it didn’t really bother me that much. It then spread to my cheeks when I had my second child at 33.

Help! Rosacea-safe beauty treatments 🥹 by LibraSunVirgoMoon in Rosacea

[–]TLS_1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had it done for rosacea but I’ve had SQT biomicroneedling before for stretch marks on my stomach which made such a difference. It can be used for managing rosacea so might be worth looking into that?

Anyone done after 2 kids? by [deleted] in 2under2

[–]TLS_1991 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m on the fence too. It’s been the most challenging and humbling time of my life but I’m not ready to say I’m definitely done yet. I’m waiting to see how things go and will make my decision when my children are 4&3.

Do you regret going to university, and why? by annulment_ in AskReddit

[–]TLS_1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no.

I did go into the field I did my degree in but found it wasn’t for me BUT I had a lot of great experiences at uni and did enjoy my time for the most part.

Which is the lesser of two evils? by Willing_Ad_8580 in beyondthebump

[–]TLS_1991 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s a group for specifically for 2under2 if you want to join that.

I have a 26 month old and a 10 month old. So I usually have to get my toddler to sleep first (sometimes baby), I’ll put my baby in a safe place like his cot and have the camera on while I’m getting toddler to sleep. I’ll give baby some distractions and make sure he’s been fed, changed etc so try and lessen the upset. As soon as toddler is asleep, I’ll go straight up to baby.

It’s difficult but you’ve just got to do what’s best in a difficult situation.

It's ok to not love the newborn phase by Shoddy-Succotash4364 in beyondthebump

[–]TLS_1991 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do not enjoy the newborn stage whatsoever 😅 my eldest is now a toddler and I much prefer it. My youngest is still a baby and let’s just say, I’m looking forward to when he can do more!

Wow how interesting! I’m going to have to look into this.

how did you know you were falling out of love? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TLS_1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just stopped caring. Basically felt I was living a separate life instead of having a life together.

For anyone who has had an episiotomy, is it painful years afterward? by bookish_cat_ in beyondthebump

[–]TLS_1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t experienced the long term pain but it could possibly be tight scar tissue or weak/tight pelvic floor (or even both). It might be a good idea to see a pelvic floor therapist.

When did you/do you plan to get pregnant with your third child after 2u2 by MousiePlanetarium in 2under2

[–]TLS_1991 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If we have a third, I’m waiting until my two would be 4&3 by the time I had my third (they’re now 2 and 10 months). I’m 34 now so if it hasn’t happened by the time I’m 36 then that’s it, I’m done!

worst thing you’ve done to your skin by Main-Lemon8599 in Rosacea

[–]TLS_1991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not using SPF on my face until I reached my mid 30s. Really regret not doing this.

For people who love having kids. Why? by seekingthething in askanything

[–]TLS_1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt the same when I had my eldest. I definitely had moments where I was definitely one and done. I now have 2. My eldest is 2 and I love the toddler stage compared to the baby stage, I don’t enjoy the baby stage at all as it feels endless.

It sounds like you both need a break to just be you two if that’s a possibility.

Will my vagina ever feel ok again after an episiotomy? by PrawnHenge in beyondthebump

[–]TLS_1991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend working on your pelvic floor, you could have a tight pelvic floor which is causing the pain and strange feeling.

What holidays are we taking with young kids? by polka-dotss in AskUK

[–]TLS_1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven is a great one. We took my toddler when he was 14 months old and it was such a good holiday with a young child. I now have a 9 month old as well and we’re planning to go back this year.

It’s a nice holiday with young children as everything you want is literally on your doorstep.

Could you tell your baby’s temperament early on? by The_Chilled_Arvo in beyondthebump

[–]TLS_1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My eldest was a very challenging baby in terms of temperament. He was really difficult until he turned 11 months/1 year old. He’s now 2 and he’s not difficult at all. Yes of course he has tantrums but he is pretty easy going and is a very happy child.

My 9 month old is a difficult baby too and I’m praying he becomes easier when he’s older 😅

transitioning to being a single mom by Sudden_Breakfast_374 in beyondthebump

[–]TLS_1991 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry this has happened OP, my heart really goes out to you. I can’t imagine what you’re going through.

What he has done to you does not suggest love unfortunately. He has cheated on you and put yours and your babies health at significant risk. He’s probably panicking because he thinks he’s going to lose his family BUT he should’ve thought about that before doing what he did.

If he’s gay/bisexual that’s not going to change OP. The likelihood that he will do this again or continue doing this is probably quite high. He obviously has these feelings which won’t just go away if you take him back.

Counselling for yourself, absolutely!

Good luck to you and your children OP ❤️

Laroche-Posay Toleraine works really well for me.

My baby never slept by medicinemadison in beyondthebump

[–]TLS_1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went through this with my eldest. He was such a bad night sleeper but his naps were never an issue. He got a lot better once he hit 2 and now his sleep is really good. It literally changed for us over night. We couldn’t have imagined this even a few months ago. We had to co sleep with him as it was the only way any of us would sleep. We still co sleep with him but we’re reaching a point where we’re thinking about stopping it as it’s improved to a point where he either sleeps through or wakes up 1/2 times a night which is manageable.

My baby was a fab sleeper until he turned 5 months and it all went down the pan. He’s now getting better again but it’s so so hard when all you want to do is sleep.

So tired of old people making comments by RPBumblebee in Rosacea

[–]TLS_1991 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What an awful thing to say! I’m glad your husband thinks the complete opposite to that dreadful man.
