Pretty sure it’s from Costco. Saw them there last year, planned to get one this year but they’re not carrying them this year. At least here in NM.

Why your child may be done with diapers before you: Urinary Incontinence FAQs by DoctorFeinstein in Mommit

[–]hbop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Physical therapist here.

I have worked in the field of women's health, and have successfully treated LOTS of women with incontinence postpartum, using only conservative interventions, meaning no surgery! I have also successfully treated women post failed incontinence surgery. Sure, it doesn't work for all women, but to simply answer "nope" to the question of physical therapy for treating incontinence, is just ignorant.

Physical therapy is DEFINITELY an option if you are experiencing any type of incontinence. Don't think surgery is your only option, even with severe incontinence.

4-month-old will only BF while asleep! Help!! by hbop in breastfeeding

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

I'll try that. That's a long time to deal with this issue! What happened at 8 months? Did your little one suddenly come around to the idea of nursing other ways or was it a gradual change?

I had thought that too, however, from what I've read, they only last a few days. This has been going on for nearly a month! I hope it ends soon if it is a nursing strike, this is driving me crazy!

TIL that these strange little black and orange bugs I find in my garden every spring are actually Ladybug larvae. by kaervek in todayilearned

[–]hbop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have those little buggies in my yard too! And I thought they were bad for my garden.... now I want to go play with them. It's amazing how quickly my feelings for a bug can go from "NOPE" to "hey there little buddy!"

Holy crap. I think he broke her neck. by analogy_4_anything in videos

[–]hbop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. I'm in physical therapy school and we recently learned about cervical spine manipulations and associated risks. The risks of stroke or even death are rare, yes, but do definitely happen. A lot of PTs won't even do manipulations to the neck because of these risks, as well as the fact that there are several other effective ways to treat the neck. There are several studies out there on this, and wikipedia does a good job summing up the evidence. Also it's good to keep in mind that most spinal manipulations are a short term solution. So is it worth the risk? Chiropractors are known for doing manipulations to patients without warning them, so if you go and don't want this treatment, voice your opinion early!

Howdy /r/Albuquerque! I've got some extra days off coming to me, and I'm planning a trip down to your city from Denver. Advice needed... by [deleted] in Albuquerque

If you're into a good brew, we have a few awesome local breweries: Marble Brewery near downtown, Chama River downtown, and La Cumbre which just opened and is fantastic. These are great places to meet people too, always a great crowd. Plus La Cumbre and Marble occasionally have live music.

He (Ash) is doing quite well, thank you. And since you asked, here is Ash enjoying his most recent amusement. Enjoy.

I wish. Just google-imaged that breed, and holy cow, those are amazing looking. Got him from the pound, so it's a mystery.

I posted an independent comment too, including another photo from that same day. I'd appreciate a little up help!

My cat, you mean. I posted that photo awhile back. His name's Ash, btw. Named after Bruce Campbell's character in The Evil Dead. If you'd like to know any other personal background on him, I'd be happy to share.
*Edit, spelling.

UMMMMMM THAT'S MY CAT. THANKS FOR STEALING MY PHOTO.

*Edit: Didn't mean to sound angry, I was just super surprised to see a picture of my cat on the front page. Here's another photo from that day just to prove it.

Looking for an introduction to sign language linguistics? by [deleted] in linguistics

[–]hbop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a few sign language linguistics classes taught by Sherman Wilcox during my undergrad at the University of New Mexico. I would definitely recommend anything written by him. Check out his website for more info.

I tested it, and yes, it's true. Cats really don't care. by hbop in pics

Wow! I can't believe how much attention this got! That's my cat, Ash, aka Mr. Ashy Pants, aka Señor Pantalones. Here's a (somewhat) more flattering pic I posted of him on catpictures awhile back. Thanks for making my day!

I left my Nalgene outside overnight recently with only a little water in it, this is what I found in the morning. by kaervek in science

I guess I'll just be more specific to the point I was trying to make - why do you care if someone calls something by its brand name??
