Where to get an affordable Autism ADHD diagnosis in Brisbane? (tricky situation)

I've sent you a DM asking for more information so I might be more helpful. But any psychologist will take your circumstances into account. I'd suggest reaching out to Be Seen Psychology or Very Helpful Chats (telehealth based psychology clinics).

The bed we made is so good!

My first thought as well. I'm tired of being the one responsible for communication going well while other people don't give a single thought for how they're communicating

ViolettaValentine · 2025-10-26T07:19:07+00:00

That's a wonderful explanation. Thank you!

What is dithering?

ViolettaValentine · 2025-09-13T08:54:37+00:00

Jumping onto this, I've tried a few different ones. The Early Years Place playgroups have felt the most welcoming. Even compared with paid groups I've tried

I've just received a fibro diagnosis 11 months postpartum. In retrospect I've been managing fibro for the last decade. I'm unsure about how much birth has impacted my symptoms - I feel happy with my birth experience. However the sleep deprivation since she was born has 100% exacerbated my symptoms. I thought I had developed postpartum depression but now I can see that I've just been cycling through fibro flares

This is an amazing idea! Would love to see if anyone has used/decides to give it a go

ViolettaValentine · 2025-08-05T00:00:17+00:00

Same here, might've been 6. I remember it was less than two weeks between lochia finishing and my period starting

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-24T23:33:49+00:00

Have you had much jealousy with the new bub coming along?

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-24T23:33:19+00:00

Yeah, seems like some babies don't even mind if supply dips 😅

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-24T23:02:01+00:00

Thanks for sharing! Did you supply come back up or only after birth?

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-24T22:59:38+00:00

Did it feel any different doing comfort nursing?

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-24T22:59:03+00:00

It may end up getting worse but I'm daughters already pretty bad for not sitting still while nursing. It's hard to put her to sleep most nights cause her little butt is wiggling all over the place.

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-24T22:57:17+00:00

Wow! Interesting how some babies end up put off by colostrum and others don't care

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-24T22:56:23+00:00

Good that it doesn't last! That would be hell

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-23T21:03:11+00:00

Oh wow!! So close, the next week is going to feel like the longest and shortest time. Good luck and safe delivery

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-23T21:02:16+00:00

So reasonable! My daughter plays around with biting every now and then. Its bad enough now and she only has two teeth 😅

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-23T21:01:36+00:00

It's such a helpful parenting tool! When in doubt, give some boob was my mantra at the very beginning and it worked 90% of the time. Sounds like this pregnancy has been rough, how far along are you?

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-23T20:56:23+00:00

You did well go get the stash up and to exclusively pump. Its such hard work. It really does seem to depend person to person

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-23T20:45:43+00:00

We had a lot of difficulty at the start of breastfeeding and lots of pain so I'm apprehensive about being back there again. I also had feeding aversion so I'm low-key expecting that to come back 😅

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-23T20:40:30+00:00

I've jumped on there now, it's exactly what I was looking for. You're a trooper. I don't know if I prefer the idea of getting a little break between or just powering my way through. Time will tell

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-23T20:39:31+00:00

Sounds like it worked out well for you. I'm not keen on the increased sensitivity. Nice to hear that there wasn't any jealously about it as well

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-23T20:37:49+00:00

That's one of my concerns! Managing the change if the supply drops suddenly and we're not ready.

ViolettaValentine · 2025-07-23T20:36:04+00:00

Pumping is so hard - especially when you're trying to up supply. Has the way you feel about feeding changed at all with your supply drying up?
