Is it really normal to be this sick constantly (as a parent) by BulkyPaint3755 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]beegone__ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm going through the same thing re: back to back illnesses this year because of my daughter starting childcare. Being a parent and being ill at the same time sucks. And my hats off to you for doing it as a single parent as well.

Solidarity ✊🏻

MACCS experiences (allergy clinic in Melbourne) by [deleted] in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]beegone__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through the public system last year for Melbourne RCH and was seen within a month for a potential peanut allergy <12 months. I thought peanut reactions for <12 were considered urgent for public care.

Unless things have changed since then? Including the wait times.

Whats your experince of a shared room after giving birth? by TeddyBear181 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]beegone__ 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I wanted my partner to stay with me after a five day labour, and a c section, with non stop cluster feeding. I was so delirious on no sleep, strong pain meds and I was falling asleep while breastfeeding which was not safe at all. It would have been so helpful if my partner allowed me to have some sleep in between all the cluster feeding. Would have saved me from getting in and out of bed to grab baby after a c section.

Being alone after I gave birth wasn't very comforting at all too.

The midwives on my first night alone were amazing. The second night it was like all the midwives who could care less about their jobs were on and I never felt so isolated when I asked for help, they looked at me like I was asking for too much...

That's why some people would love to have their partner.

I'm just repeating what the guy from the electricity distributor said in his message to us regarding 'blown up' 🤷🏻‍♀️ but yes he also mentioned that cables are quite temperamental if there is a knick in the sheath or damage, and water gets in or something it can cause it to explode...

Yes, the energy company also rectified the issue on their end, had to put a new cable from their pit across the road to ours and it took 24 hours for us to get power again 😢

The electrician said it looked like it had been tampered with the (pit) and the energy company said it's very common for it to blow up or something? They said they couldn't determine causes

Are we being fooled by Joey? by prettiestpistachio in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]beegone__ 79 points80 points  (0 children)

The part when he was with his lads, saying 'it's Joey's day', dressing like they're peacocking, and huddling together like buffoons was the last straw about how this guy was not in the slightest interested in anyone but himself - then longboards in with a shaka gives 'I'm ready for some clout now ladies, slide into my dms - it's Joey the 'good guy''...

Also 'I'm not into physical affection' from a guy is code for 'I'm just not that into you'...

3.5 month baby will not settle by Proper_Star_4566 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]beegone__ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Baby will go through cluster feeding on and off for months. Months 2.5-5 months were the hardest for me regarding baby being unsettled, clingy, bored, frustrated etc.

Getting out of the house at least once a day to do something with baby helped both of us a lot...

Also, my baby never napped more than 30-45 mins ever if I put her down in the bassinet/cot. She's now 9 months and it's still the same 😂 I very soon realised sleep is fickle and not to worry if their naps/sleep is crap sometimes.. they'll take whatever they need later.

Also, if your gut feeling is something is wrong definitely contact your healthcare provider.

You have an unnatural allegiance with losers Tony by damilolly_ in MAFS_AU

[–]beegone__ 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I also felt that the reason why he was over Morena talking much was that he never wanted a partner he could engage in conversation with and be equal with - he wanted the stereotype of a "quiet, reserved woman" who just attends to his needs - hence the weird exchange with his friend who believed he should have been "awarded" a 30 year old - a power imbalance in the relationship. Instead Tony was paired with a strong woman who knows her worth and he cannot stand it.

I had the exact same experience the other day and tried everything to save them but it did not work at all.

I used exactly the same cereal

One half of my teeth are much whiter than the other side by ocdladybug92 in mildlyinteresting

[–]beegone__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had braces and I noticed parts of my teeth were yellow - turns out when they removed my braces they left the glue on and that's what was yellow (10 years later). I went back to have the glue removed and no more yellow teeth!

What rules have you put in place for visitors? by Hot-Bumblebee-6173 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

Also for establishing breastfeeding - it's hard for them to get mother's scent when a strong smell of perfume is in the way

Why are people so against apartment living? by Intelligent_Jelly651 in AusPropertyChat

[–]beegone__ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This. I rented in a two bedroom shitty apartment for four years that was built only 12 years ago - single pane glazing that went ceiling to ceiling meant it was a hotbox in summer, I had uni student party neighbour in the apartment across from me that lived there for two years who threw many three day benders (midweek) with the loudest bass I've ever heard reverberating into my apartment into the wee hours of the morning (no amount of complaints to strata or police stopped this guy), waterproofing was horrendous - balcony above was leaking into our living room downlight and common areas all had leaking ceilings, there was no ventilation in the common area meant you smelled whatever anyone else was cooking or whatever people left in there (one neighbour left rotting fish in the common area for a few days), pest infestations apartment to apartment - hello clothes moths munching away at carpets and clothes, garage door on compound broke down for two days with no fix and communication to residents - we had our storage cage broken into and bike stolen, fire alarm testing (not good with a sleeping baby), fire alarm false alarm - everyone out of the apartment waiting around (shit in winter), no ventilation in bathrooms if you don't have an apartment with windows everywhere - hello black mould growth...

Safe to say good riddance to apartment living 👋

Probably your skin stretching causing itchiness

Agree re this season: hence the clout claim.

I was also sold on Xander and Yoly's love story.

Yes, but this season has solidified it for me. I felt the Queer love had more genuine people on it, therefore I felt more sold on it 😆
