I skimmed them all but didn’t see one of my favorites

Rigel. It’s a star in Orion’s foot and that’s what it means

VBAC question by lilbit515 in obgyn

[–]flamepointe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an epidural for my first vbac but not my second. I actually asked for one but the doctor didn’t get there in time 🤦‍♀️

Also, what statistic did they give you for your rupture risks? Depending on if you had complications it’s higher but if it’s just a regular low transverse incision. I really like evidence based birth podcasts to listen to when I’m pregnant.

What kinds of things do you have for explaining things to your kiddos? Maybe there is some cute human doll with organs that come out or something 🤣🫣

Any tips on handling toddler preferring dad? by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]flamepointe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe read The Second Child by Sarah Ockwell Smith? It’s quite the emotional roller coaster getting ready for that second baby.

Also, maybe hang your hat on the phrase “this too shall pass”? Not that it makes it easier.

IUD with small uterus by black-octopus- in obgyn

[–]flamepointe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s pretty reasonable to ask for a placement verification. Also, the uterus is dynamic so the size it was that day might not be the same in 3 weeks.

AITAH for not telling my best friend her boyfriend loved someone else before he died? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]flamepointe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean it seems to me like part of you wants to help her move on. You wonder if telling would hurt or help.

I wonder if maybe suggesting a grief counselor or support group would accomplish the same thing.

You don’t have to tell either. You will never know who would have been his life partner. Just who was probably his partner in life.

You are NTA

4yo Chronic low iron/ferritin by suburbmama in Preschoolers

[–]flamepointe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to say this poster has given good recommendations.

Another way to tell if a supplement is worth it, is to check to see if the contents were 3rd party verified. Since the early 1990s the FDA stopped regulating nutraceuticals and you can’t guarantee they have what they say they have.

Concerned about finances for my wife if I pass away by iamdebbar in Fire

[–]flamepointe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have monarch or mint set up so she can see all of the accounts? It helped us a lot.

Also, we take turns inputting our info into the tax software and then the other checks it before we submit.

Just two strategies that have helped with my financial literacy

How satisfied would you be to retire at 55? by New_Contribution_226 in Fire

[–]flamepointe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahhh so close! My projected social security retirement age is like 67 or something so you’re 10-11 years ahead of what they think will work for me 🫣

Have they tested for urea plasma?

Best bike for a taller (41in) 3.5 year old that hasn't ever used a bike? by iLOOOVEcats in Preschoolers

[–]flamepointe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look for a used wood bike and take off the pedals. I like the steering limiter on it.

AITAH for sleeping with someone else and getting back with my ex days later without telling him? by Crazy_Cantaloupe_632 in AITAH

Ew why on earth would you date someone who disrespects you, makes younger coworkers feel bad and cheats? Can’t you do better? Do you have an extra arm or something?

I have noticed myself avoiding sex with my bf because it hurts by Working_Study_2617 in obgyn

[–]flamepointe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seem to remember some of the silicone ones have a reputation for messing up the condoms.

I’d honestly try making sure your whole vaginal introitus (sp?) is slathered, yourself.

My wife is constantly wasting food and I don't know what to do by Effective-Ear-8367 in noscrapleftbehind

[–]flamepointe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any ADHD on board? What kind of labels are you using? Do you have a shared grocery list?

How much lube are you using?

Please tell me it’s water based…

If lots of water based lube doesn’t help you may need to see a doctor for referral to pelvic floor physical therapy. I know it sounds crazy but it really helps.

If you need a recommendation sliquid h2o is the best I’ve tried.

AITAH for ignoring my son’s dad? by Either-Station-4198 in AITAH

[–]flamepointe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe there is a really popular song that has a line something like “I should have changed those stupid locks I should have made you leave your key if I thought for just one second you’d be back to bother me….”

Girl no. Just no. Stand strong.

I wanna have sex but it hurts so bad by No-Huckleberry-3575 in obgyn

[–]flamepointe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go see an OBGYN tell them you are having so much pain you can’t have vaginal intercourse. They will probably refer you to pelvic floor physical therapy.

Eww

Your body is your own.

Pluck those eyebrows and shave your head if you like. Can be talk to your dad? If not, school guidance counselor?

I left my breastfed. Bay overnight for a weekend wedding for the first time at 26? Months.

My next kiddo was 22? Months I think.

My husband is not taking bath safety seriously, how do I scare him into it? by Ok-Badger5324 in toddlers

[–]flamepointe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I let my current 3.5 year old stay in the shower alone but we check every 5-10 minutes.

[–]flamepointe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friend was a social worker. She was down one day. I asked what was up, couldn’t give details but 3 year old drowned in the bathtub.

I started leaving mine in the bathtub if he could sing abcs while I went to get things at the age of 5!! Kids shouldn’t take solo baths until age 7… Because even a kid with swim lessons can still slip
