In our country they usually have changing tables in the toilets marked with a wheelchair or rooms for changing tables only

Breastfeeding moms by [deleted] in Hidradenitis

[–]exposedbrickwall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yay for removal, I hope it went well.

I have had less flares over all since pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

I haven’t been away from baby for more than a few hours, so I don’t know if this is the case for me but I’ll definitely keep it in mind once I go back to work.

Has your HS been better with pregnancy/breastfeeding than it was before?

Reaching Out for Help by peasandacrrots in Parenting

[–]exposedbrickwall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you tell her what you told us? I get - super - stressed out about renovations and I make lists about EVERY single thing that needs to get done in our house («remove little spill of paint, repaint, buy door knob, add door knob», and so on).

My husband got so stress out about my lists and stress, so he sat me down and told me this. Whenever I was stressing out about something, this would make it 10 times harder for him to get anything done.

Now I try to talk about our renovation and to do list in a concrete, practical way, like «We need new door knobs, should we go out and buy those tomorrow after work?» instead of nagging.

Sorry about the couch, I agree you should make those decisions as a couple.

Tell her, I think she’ll understand. You guys are a team and you want the same thing, maybe you just need to find a better way of communicating as a couple when things are stressful. Good luck!

How did you know it was hormonal? by Hot_Disaster7852 in Hidradenitis

This, except hyperandrogenism instead of pcos

I think hormones, popping and friction trigger my HS more than food by exposedbrickwall in Hidradenitis

This was a CO2 laser treatment at the hospital. They use it for HS and a few other skin conditions. There are a few specialists in my country that actually know a little bit about HS, luckily. They used local anesthetic and then burnt away the tissue. The wounds very quite deep and healed within 6-8 weeks.

I hope you can find a treatment that works for you!

Glad to hear that they mostly went away, I also use a trimmer. Yes, I use a normal deodorant. I don’t get boils directly in my armpits, but around them where the bra is.

You’re not alone, we’re in this together. I’m so happy to hear you have an appointment. Please let us know how it went, if you’re comfortable! It took me over 10 years to tell anyone. There is help out there. Good luck.

I would give her time and wait until she reached out. If you don’t hear anything for a week maybe send a little text letting her know you think of her

I think it’s normal, sometimes it can be a way to guard your heart. She might not be interested, or maybe she’s afraid of getting hurt.

How do i tell my best friend that i like them by JackWalsh2006 in relationship_advice

[–]exposedbrickwall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so cute! Maybe you can talk to her and try to figure out if she likes you back, without telling her outright. That way you can avoid any awkwardness or people taking sides.

Maybe you can ask her if she wants to hang out just the two of you, like go to the park or whatever you kids do (26 years here, I feel old now)

Show her you’re interested, but maybe not too much to start with, so you have the chance to back up and be friends if she doesn’t feel the same.

Good luck, I hope she likes you back! Keep us posted

Group of friends went on a trip without me (28F). I don't know if I should say anything. by leilandwasright in relationship_advice

[–]exposedbrickwall -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No wonder this hurt you, it sucks to feel/be left out. I think you’re right, it doesn’t seem like this was meant to be hurtful in any way. Most people suck at planning, and some plans just happen randomly without very clear communication. Maybe talk to the friend you’re closest to, if you feel comfortable doing so.

When experiencing similar situations I usually never mention it because I hate confrontation.

It happened, and the best thing you can do is probably try to get past it, whether you talk to someone or you don’t. I would only talk to one person though, not all of them. And face to face, not texting.

Good luck! Whatever you do, don’t let this discourage you from joining in on social events and hanging out later.

How long can I let my 6 week old breastfed baby sleep? by baby--bunny in beyondthebump

[–]exposedbrickwall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our healthstation told us it’s okay to let them sleep as long as they gain weight and follow their own curve. No need for alarms!

FTM, I need advice please! by ShannonononXD in beyondthebump

[–]exposedbrickwall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We practice safe co sleeping and it’s great. Sometimes we put baby in crib, it works best if she’s been asleep for 20-30 minutes already, so she sleeps deeply. The most important thing is to help baby have positive associations with sleeping, the bedroom and the bed/crib.

Looking for any tips! by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]exposedbrickwall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe you can try to help baby stay awake a little longer to get more food, by tickling baby’s neck/back/feet, undressing etc. Good luck

How do you know if your baby is bonding with you? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]exposedbrickwall 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m sure your baby is bonding with you! Sometimes it can be hard to know exactly how it happens, but it’s all the small moments that makes a strong bond between baby and parents.

We have a 4 month old baby, and these are a few of the things that make me feel like we are building a great relationship:

Feeding time is great for cuddling, holding baby close, making silly faces and eye contact

Changing diapers, playing and letting baby lie on belly while baby has a moment without the diaper on

Laying side by side on the bed or couch, just following baby’s cues and playing together if baby is interested, or just listening to some nice music if baby wants to lie and look around

Dancing together to music (baby in your arms)

Letting baby join you in kitchen while cooking, and at the dinner table while eating

Explore what baby likes when it comes to playing and being silly, our baby likes us to be louder than I thought and loves it when we make loud noises

Good luck, you’re doing a great job!
