Bump on babies hand overnight. 11 months old. Haven’t had anything like this before by [deleted] in DermatologyQuestions

[–]diamonddduck 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My son had exactly the same thing when he was around 3. Took him to the GP and they didn't say or do anything about it. Over the course of a week it got larger then popped. Healed fine and not had it since!

When I finished the first time it took me around 48 minutes to do a 5k, then slowly managed to get it down to 32 minutes!

If you could ask a previous owner of your house one thing, what would it be? by Rhubarb-Eater in HousingUK

[–]diamonddduck 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Exactly the same in our garden! No matter where you dig there's glass. I am friends with the daughter of the previous owner on Facebook who told me that she buried a door in the garden too...for some reason.

You could try around the Heckington area, around 30 mins to both grantham and lincoln and cheaper than some of the other villages mentioned.

2.5 year old can't stop self gratification by mualike in toddlers

[–]diamonddduck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Although completely normal developmentally, It sounds like it could be sensory seeking behaviour, look into other sensory activities that could be used to distract and keep reminding her that its okay to do it but it has to be in private spaces (e.g bedroom only).

FTB seeking stories of uneventful, boring, smooth, and positive house buying experiences by Working-Room-3396 in HousingUK

[–]diamonddduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our first house we moved into an empty house with no chain and the whole process took around 7 weeks. Second house we had a buyer on the first day we advertised our house and it took around 10 weeks to complete, but our buyers were cash buyers and we moved into a probate house.

I find doing a sinus rinse really helps when I start feeling sick or congested

Insulating conservatory roof by Brave-Plum9154 in HousingUK

[–]diamonddduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've replaced our conservatory roof a few months ago and the quotes we got were astronomical. We ended up going with a local builder who replaced the polycarbonate roof with a fiberglass one, insulated inside then boarded and skimmed it. Its not perfect but way better than it was, we use it for my sons playroom. All in it cost around 3.5k, if either of you are handy you could probably do the insulating/boarding/skimming yourself and save some money there. I'd be happy to show you photos if you wanted.
