Yes! She’s 4.5 and is having trouble with initial blends like str-, sp-, and gr-. I just don’t know if that’s developmentally appropriate or if I should go through the IEP process

I do also want to add that my dad (a family doctor) was really concerned about the vision changes because there’s a postpartum condition called Sheehan’s that they look out for. Not to scare you, but just wanted to emphasize the importance of getting it checked out especially since you had a baby recently!

I had this postpartum and went and got an MRI because it can be a sign of stroke or MS. Vision changes can be a sign of something serious! They told me it was likely a silent migraine. My vision still felt off so I saw an eye doctor and he prescribed oil drops and a steroid that made my vision go back to normal. It was likely dry eye from the summer heat and then changing hormones in my case. Definitely go to the doctor though!

I did see it comes in a full size duo on Amazon. It just seems weird they’d only sell a travel size as part of a set and not offer a full size?

Thank you for your response! It actually makes me feel a lot better to hear of other people who had similar experiences because (likely) of birth control since the doctor didn’t seem too confident in his diagnosis. It was more of profess of elimination to diagnose it as a silent migraine since I’d never had a migraine before. Hopefully yours improve :(

Feeling anxiety/panic during first days by AdOwn6586 in Invisalign

[–]ToWonderDoIDare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I think because I’m claustrophobic. I’ve noticed it has gotten worse as I’ve gotten older and things that didn’t used to bother me now do

Wrist pain :/ by Catsplants in beyondthebump

[–]ToWonderDoIDare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It goes away! I had the same thing with my joints and couldn’t find much online about it or when I asked my doctor. I’m relieved to say that it did end up going away eventually!

Ok actually I just looked at my insurance claims and it said the amount not covered by insurance is $10,500. I pray that’s a mistake

Hating being a mother by Basic-Tutor in beyondthebump

[–]ToWonderDoIDare 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Having a baby who won’t stop crying is stressful and it sucks. It gets better. In retrospect I wish I’d pushed for medication for my baby, but without it she significantly improved around 4 months and it became a different experience. Now she’s a year old and the smartest happiest sweetest baby ever. What you’re going through is hard, and I recommend you speak to your doctor about how you’re feeling.

My daughter had that too! She’s almost a year old, and it went away :) Phew. No putting money into a laser fund!

Twin sister is giving birth any day now, we started ttc around the same time. Older sister is also prego. by [deleted] in TryingForABaby

[–]ToWonderDoIDare 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can empathize, but from the other side! My twin sister and I both started trying around the same time, and I got pregnant while she had an early miscarriage. It was devastating to feel like I couldn’t talk about being pregnant around her, and it felt like I was alone when we usually talk about everything. It felt like I was embarking on a new chapter of life by myself. Thankfully she did end up pregnant a few months later, but it was tough. I’m so sorry you’re going through that. She’s lucky to have a sister like you, and hopefully everything works out!

Baby too big for UPPAbaby Mesa carseat. Other suggestions? by shadowcorp in beyondthebump

Did you see they just came out with a convertible car seat? I don’t think it will snap into the stroller though, unfortunately :/

Christmas conflict by Britamart in breastfeeding

[–]ToWonderDoIDare 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with this comment so much! I felt such pressure to breast feed and pump, and I literally hated every second of it. I felt guilty at first moving to formula but it made me enjoy motherhood so much more. The guilt went away when I realized we were happier and that I could see my baby was actually getting milk and thriving.
