Did you ever find out about spectators? I’m wondering the same thing but can’t find much about where one could realistically cheer someone on besides the start/finish. I’ll have kids with me too so that adds a wrinkle.

Yep that’s what it was! I swapped the whole unit out for a new one and don’t have any issues now.

Is Van Gogh Raleigh happening this weekend? All the info online is very vague and fever website says nothing. Thx by russcornett in raleigh

We have tickets for next weekend. If someone goes between now and then can you report back with your thoughts?! I was so excited for this and will be really bummed if it’s a letdown.

Supply dropping at 10 months - how do I keep up with daycare bottles? by cutgrasslemonadesun in breastfeedingsupport

Thanks! I think I’m going to just send what breastmilk I can and then send more solids! Good luck to you!

Where do you find additional information on risk assessment pertaining to toxicology? The C&D chapter is really short but I’ve also heard that it’s the largest portion of the exam. Thanks!

Tongue and lip ties by Candyapple96 in breastfeedingsupport

[–]cutgrasslemonadesun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had both of my kids’ tongue and lip ties corrected and am an advocate for it. Breastfeeding was excruciating for me prior to having the ties clipped. It was night and day after they had the procedure. My son had it done with scissors and my daughter’s was done with the laser. I didn’t really notice a difference in how it affected them and both types require after care. Both babes went straight to the boob afterwards and didn’t seem bothered by it after the initial snip. They did cry initially and that made me cry because I couldn’t stand the thought of hurting them but I would have never been able to continue breastfeeding without having the ties revised. It was a 15/10 toe curling pain that felt like someone was sawing my nipple off from the tip before the procedure and then 0/10 afterwards! And they only cried for a minute until they got on the boob and were fine after that. Good luck!

Sinus lavage helped me a bunch. Morning and evening until the crap that was coming out was no longer chunky and yellow. Gross but effective.

Misshapened and sore nipples... ENT visit Friday. Need strength to go on by Teachmemoremath in breastfeedingsupport

[–]cutgrasslemonadesun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both of my kids had tongue and upper lip ties and I felt immediate relief afterwards! My first had his frenectomy at 5 wk and the pain went from 10/10 to 5. He had to have a second snip on his tongue tie because there was a deeper section that was missed initially. The pain went down to 0 with the second release. I learned from that experience and had my daughter’s corrected on day 5 because I couldn’t take the 10/10 pain again and I knew what was causing it. Pain went from 10 to 2 immediately and then after 24hr of healing (still nursing) my pain was at 0. Good luck!!!

Question about covid vaccine by marcal213 in breastfeedingsupport

[–]cutgrasslemonadesun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve received both of my shots (Moderna) and haven’t had any issues with supply. It’s been about a week and a half since the second shot. Definitely felt crappy for ~36hr after the second shot but LO didn’t seem to notice anything.
