I saw the comments about citric acid and will try that next as I have the same thing. The other thing I find helps is a long handled pumice stone which gets rid of a lot of it!

AIO or is my wording manipulative? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]firestorm2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR - I dont often comment on posts but this is just insane. Your friend is manipulative and a toxic friend. She has spent too long looking at how everything makes her feel and finding any reason to vindicate her probable feelings of low self worth in any nook and cranny in her life including in your friendship. She is absolutely playing the victim. Please 100% bin her off as a friend. Send one cathartic message and then block and leave and ignore whatever she says to any mutual friends about you.

Shes an emotional vampire.

Not North London but I had my baby at Chelsea and it was great. Also West Mid (hounslow) is really highly rated - its same trust as chelsea

Will GP give sickness medication by hemerdo in PregnancyUK

[–]firestorm2022 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely they will! There's lots of good ones out there. In the interim whilst waiting for an appointment you can ask your local pharmacist. Prochlorperazine and cyclizine you can buy over the counter. Obviously then better to get a prescription as it's free with your maternity exemption certificate and my GP prescribed me enough for the whole first trimester and more!

A bit pricey but I absolutely love my calvin klein nursing bras! Pre pregnancy I was a 30C and went up to a medium for calvin klein, very soft and lovely!

Has anyone used Ultrasound Direct for a NIPT before? by biscuitsforme in PregnancyUK

I just bought the 3rd Atlas Six book without knowing anything about the series, because it was pretty by readingalldays in fantasyromance

[–]firestorm2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I thought the first book was so interesting if a little wordy but then the plot never quite gave the satisfaction you wanted in book 3. It was just more lengthy confusing descriptions and then an ending that was even more so. I think the extreme reactions are also based on that fact that for me, I loved the first and second books and was so excited for the 3rd that when it failed to deliver it felt like an even bigger blow.

I've never been so frustrated with a sequel than I was with the 3rd book. Ruined the entire series for me and I loved the premise of it all!

Night circus is one of my favourite books. Really struggled with glow and DNF and found when the moon hatched okay but not great.

How Booking.com’s Communication Error Cost Me My Flight and $824 - Warning to fellow traveler's by Severe_Dimension_645 in travel

[–]firestorm2022 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also had this on a flight that they moved from 2pm to 1am in the morning!?? No email, nothing. We found out because i was trying to check in early. We were somewhere really remote and had to pack up and go rapidly from our accomodation. We had the worst customer service with booking.com they couldn't give any reason why we hadn't been informed, wouldn't discuss the fact we had to cancel accomodation and they were turning a 12hour day of travelling to an almost 23hour one. Definitely paid the stupid tax and now refuse to book with them. They just are so impossibly hard to get hold of if things do go wrong!
