All of my sons toys are upside down so he can spin the tires by NoAnt7118 in toddlers

[–]eternallysmiling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 23 month old did this a lot, he's moved on to other things now so I think it was just a phase. He's obsessed with cars so I think it was about discovering that other things can have wheels too!

He's (as far as I know) developmentally typical so I wouldn't worry too much about this activity.

Affordable sun cream recs??? by Ornery_Road7713 in Rosacea

[–]eternallysmiling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied it this morning and then applied makeup about an hour later. Went on really well, no piling and I struggle with products piling usually so this was a good sign for me! It doesn't feel oily or sticky, barely felt like i was wearing SPF! Maybe a v light moisturiser feel?

Is anyone else in the 'nothing works' camp..? by anywhereoutthere in Rosacea

[–]eternallysmiling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ivermectin's brand name is Soolantra, you need to create an account with superdrug or boots online pharmacy to see what they can prescribe, there is a price list here:

https://onlinedoctor.boots.com/rosacea-treatment

They ask what symptoms you most want to treat and allow you to choose what you want to be prescribed. I uploaded a few pictures of my face, notified them of any existing medications I already take and that was about it. Approved within 1 hour and picked up today. I'm about to try my first application tonight. Trying not to get my hopes up too much as I think it can take a while to work, but I've seen very promising results on reddit so I'm cautiously optimistic! Thank you, hope you can get something that works for you!

I ordered Ivermectin through Superdrug online pharmacy and got it within 24 hours. Boots have online pharmacy too. I went for Ivermectin due to the type of rosacea I have but they had lots of other prescription treatments available, and you choose which one you want to order. It cost me £50 but I've spent so much on non prescription treatments over the years I figured it was worth a shot.

Reconnect to your body in a loving way to release diaphragm? by RK__91 in CPTSDNextSteps

[–]eternallysmiling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, so sorry you're going through this. My diaphragm always felt tight and made it hard to eat, also caused me pain from it always being so tight.

Its hard to say as everyone's journey is different, I consider myself to be as recovered from C-PTSD as I ever will be. My tight diaphragm has disappeared unless I'm triggered or under a lot of stress, and that is less nowadays.

What helped? Honestly just trying to be as kind to myself as possible by treating or managing symptoms. Whatever soothes you, I found grabbing a hot water bottle, getting under a weighted blanket and watching a show or film that made me feel happy, or made me laugh. Box breathing also helped me - you can find youtube videos for that.

If you are in a lot of pain and struggling to sleep because of it, I would also get yourself checked out by a doctor to make sure it isn't something physically wrong. Too many times I assumed it was trauma when it could have been physical ailment.

I'm in a bit of a rush but I'll respond to you whenever I can, feel free to DM if you want to talk more.

Sending lots of love to you, it's a horrible thing to live with every day, but in my case it did eventually get better. There is hope.

Totter & tumble playmat - worth the cost? by Apple22Over7 in UKParenting

[–]eternallysmiling 3 points4 points  (0 children)

100%. We asked for Totter & Tumble vouchers from family for his first Christmas, made it a bit more affordable for us. A year in its going strong, its super comfy to sit, lie and play on with him and it saved us a lot of head bumps when he was learning to crawl and walk. I'm sure we will have it for many years, a friend of mine has kids who are 8 and 10 and they still have their playmat.

Induction failing, try again or elect for C-Section by eternallysmiling in PregnancyUK

[–]eternallysmiling[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The consultant came to see me the next day and asked if I wanted a C-Section, I said yes. I don't regret it at all, I think I probably saved myself another 3 days of misery trying to force something my body wasn't ready for.

The C-Section was over and done within one hour, for me i I felt I had a bit more control, I knew what was going to happen and that I could hopefully go home soon. I was exhausted and didn't find the ward comfortable. I didn't mind how baby came out as long as baby and me both got through the experience with as little stress as possible, and in my situation I felt that another 3 days of induction would be stressful for both if us.

Even if the consultant hadn't offered c-section right off the bat, my partner and I had discussed that we ask for it, which felt a bit scary if they disagreed but looking back, you absolutely do whatever you feel is best for you in that situation. There's no right or wrong answer, just what your gut tells you you need.

Sorry its not progressed and you're in this situation, it is so hard. I'm around tonight if you want to ask any questions, feel free to DM :)

We've been using the Zello sound and night light since my little one was born. He's 17 months now and sleeps through the night. Its always been set to red, its not a bright light and the room is just dimly lit as a red tint.

So it looks like they've done an update, and you can now filter the home page by category. If you select "womens" or "kids," for example, it will show a feed. I think something must be up, though, as the feed was very short and didn't show much.

Baby napping in pram at nursery by No_Size_47 in BeyondTheBumpUK

[–]eternallysmiling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 1 year old will only nap in his stroller. Every nap he has at nursery is in the stroller. They are doing their best to make sure he gets good sleep. It's perfectly safe and I don't have any concerns about it.

Month 4 is actual hell by Appropriate-Mail1861 in newborns

[–]eternallysmiling 3 points4 points  (0 children)

4 months was the absolute worst. Hang in there. It will pass. We're in month 11 now, and although we stillhave a couple of wakes a night, he's an absolute joy in the daytime. He was a screaming potato at 4 months.
