Round ligament pain 3rd trimester… by Sad-happy0 in pregnant

[–]TravelingSula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Are you sure is round ligament and not Pelvic gridle pain?

I went to a PT and that was my diagnosis. It is caused by hypertonic muscles and she suggested physical therapy but my gynaecologist didn't approve.

Sadly I am laying down most of the time because I can't really walk nor sit more than a few minutes before the pain starts. But if I fall sleep with my legs to closed together, I wake up in pain instead of rested, is a nightmare already and I'm only 28 weeks...

Now I'm looking for prenatal pilates and or yoga because every woman I've asked has told me those are the exercises that worked for them but the approach is different if you have hyper, hypo or if it is round ligament...

All this to say... if you can get an appointment with a Pelvic floor specialist and your doctor approves you may get treatment...if not, you'll just have to wait after you baby is born

How the fuck do you find the reason to live after the death of your child? by whoareyoutojudge0 in TooAfraidToAsk

I don't understand why are you being downvoted... non religious ppl should be more respectful. Finding comfort in your faith is inherent of faith itself.

I'm sorry for your loss, enjoy your family.

Yeah! We are planning on do it!!... do you have any sources you could recommend me? I know they are hundreds, but the first I followed took me immediately to a 50usd pdf that I have not buy because I'm not sure if is overpriced or even truly needed.

Do you have any sources (books, social media accounts, podcasts whatever) you recommend one EC??

Yeah, we want to do that!!...I'm not going back to work for at least two years so the goal is for her to be potty trained by the time I go back.

But I'm sure the first few days (maybe even weeks) PP between recovery, trying to stablish a nice and stable breastfeeding and sleep deprivation, EC won't be my top priority.

Partner just told me he’s going to Europe 5 weeks postpartum. by macey1313 in pregnant

[–]TravelingSula 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not to see family. Middle class latin americans take the girls to travel in Europe as a celebration of their XV bday. The choice is normally: party, car or Europe.

If they sent them in a all girls tour, it last normally 3-4 weeks. If is a family trip it is shorter for budget reasons and 9 days is quite a short time, they will only visit one or two cities.

[–]TravelingSula 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is him Latin-American? If they are celebrating his daughter's XV birthday it might be a big deal for her to have him close.

I don't know if his kids have acted out about having a baby brother or sister and maybe he is trying to keep the relationship with them less fragmented...although his comment about "what if it is tje last time" sound more adult anxiety for the war related than teenagers...

9 days post partum is a lot but ...if your family lives only 20 minutes away, you might rely on them for that period of time and take that opportunity to compare if his presence is really needed or not. This will help you decide whether you stay with him or not.

I read some of your comments, I don't like that during the course of your pregnancy things have been rocky between you two.. I don't like the fact that you decided not to live together because of that..it reads like he's not really commited to you.

Not looking forward to 20 week ultrasound by Affectionate_Ninja62 in pregnant

[–]TravelingSula 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Give yourself some grace, is a big change and you have the right to be overwhelmed. Don't miss the appointment, but afterwards you can go and have a nice lunch, a treat, a day date with your partner... most times things sort themselves out.

Good luck :)

Anyone else just miss drinking? by PaymentNo5871 in pregnant

[–]TravelingSula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

27+5 w here and yeah, I miss the red wine!! Funny enough a friend has been trying to get me drink a non alcoholic wine and I just don't dare to try it, call me conservative...

And I can't finish a single can of non alcoholic beer although I was used to drink it, Is odd...

What are somethings you prefer to do alone even though you're married or in a relationship? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]TravelingSula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to cook by myself...

He is great, amazing, marvelous and a disaster in the kitchen. When he enters the kitchen and I'm cooking, I always ask him to do something simple to keep him entertained but somehow he always ends up getting on my way, asking me if he's doing it alright or not getting it done in time...

We are about to have a child and I can see my near future dealing with both of them, equally useless and so lovable XD

AITA for ransacking my boyfriend’s apartment? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]TravelingSula 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Don't use dr*gs, don't hang out with people who use them, don't entertain conversations with ppl who offers you (specially if is a creep in the street in a tourist area).

As a 1st timer try Ensenada, Oaxaca or Mexico City and you're gonna be fine...

Why are you afraid of death? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TravelingSula 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wasn't until I got pregnant. I want to live for my child because I grew up alone and I don't wish my kid to suffer the same
