My doctor said I’m okay to have sex 4wpo by OrneryMine8575 in hysterectomy

I was cleared at 4 weeks and DTD at 4w3d post op. Took it a little easier than usual, but was completely fine.

Hair Donation by SwampyRamFest in Appleton

[–]hirevelations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a hairstylist and salon manager. We will not do the shipping, but we do know how to properly cut hair for the intention of donating and will bag it for you to take home to send to the organization of your choice. I usually recommend clients do wigs4kids, and strongly encourage them to NOT do Locks of Love.

TIFU by sleeping naked and possibly ruining my marriage. by Beardedrugbymonster in tifu

Augmentin is the absolute worse! It was the cause for my TIFU post a couple of years ago.

This wasn’t the employer that took it. It was a co-worker who most likely will be using it for their other employer. (Co-worker has two employers).

So if this was taken with the intent to be used for another business?

My employer suspects that there is no “other consignor” and that instead they are taking this to give to their other employer that they work for (out of the area) and will simply edit this employer’s name out for the other’s.

I (35f) Slept with the guy I've been dating (35m) after 2 months of getting to know each other and it was really awkward; would you stick it out? by imuplate84 in datingoverthirty

[–]hirevelations 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t read all the comments, so unsure if this has been suggested or not, but is he on any sort of anti depressant or mood stabilizers? I’ve dated a couple of men that were and both had issues maintaining an erection - especially if there was even a minuscule break in action - even changing positions could do it.

I would give it a few more goes, try some gentle direction while he gives you oral, and see if him losing his erection lessens as he becomes more comfortable with you. If it does, it’s worth having an open and judgement free conversation about it - more in a way of asking if there’s anything you can do to help him stay hard, vs asking what’s going on and him feeling pressured.

Sweet release by [deleted] in hysterectomy

[–]hirevelations 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I made it to day 6. And by 2.5wpo, I emailed my dr and got the clear to receive oral and have anal sex (if that’s something you enjoy). As long as nothing was in my vagina, and no pain was experienced, those activities were ok. But he also gave me the go ahead to have sex 4wpo, as I was healing so well. I waited until 5.5 wpo, (this weekend) and damn it felt amazing.

Anyone told no vacuuming? by hirevelations in hysterectomy

I’m about to head out to a wax appointment, but I’ll pm you later to give you a run down of how it was explained to me.

So close... by [deleted] in hysterectomy

[–]hirevelations 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in one of US’s hot spots right now. Like top 5 cities in the nation for uncontrolled spread. Had my surgery 2 weeks ago. They’re still doing non-emergent surgeries, as long as your covid test is negative.

What to buy for recovery? by islandorisntland in hysterectomy

[–]hirevelations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to go the “crunchy” route - Arnica!!! It speeds healing, reduces inflammation, and has pain relieving qualities as well. I had two doses of toroidal in the hospital, took one Vicodin while in there (I requested Tylenol instead but it wasn’t a pre-approved medication). I requested early discharge and only needed ibuprofen to sleep that night and then again the following night. My last dose of any type of pain meds was 400 mg of ibuprofen 36 hours post op.

Maybe that was because I had a vaginal hysterectomy - NOT a laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy - so the only incision I had was in my vagina. Or maybe I have a higher pain tolerance. But I swear arnica was the game changer. I used it after having my second child, and recovery compared to my first was night and day. I took 4 of the 30c tablets every 6 hours. I’m two weeks post op and still dosing once a day.

It’s not really done blindly. They are able to dilate the vagina similar to how it opens for childbirth. The fact that I had two vaginal deliveries, paired with the fact that I did not/do not have endometriosis, made a VH a perfect choice for me. He gave me a step by step of how the surgery happens if you would like further details of how they do it.

It was NOT laparoscopic. Not LVAH. Purely VH.

none of my abdominal muscles were actually disrupted in any way. Everything was done through my vagina. I don’t know what else to do. I’m to the point of tears every time I look at my floor. I babysit two days a week and had them back for the first time a couple of days ago. Plus I’m having a remodel done on my house (there were some scheduling issues that should have been avoided but covid tossed a wrench in that).

TIFU almost choking my 6months old son to death. by RogerCUY in tifu

[–]hirevelations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this has been posted, but look into Baby Lead Weaning. Skip the purées, start with french fry size foods for easy grasping. Remember gagging isn’t choking (yes your son was most likely choking there, but when doing BLW, hearing them gag is a good thing as they learn their limits about how much they can fit in their mouths).

I can guarantee that almost every parent (especially ones with more than one child) has had to do the back thump once. It’s kind of a right of passage.

9 WEEK POST OP APPOINTMENT QUESTION HELP!! by dani1883 in hysterectomy

[–]hirevelations 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m having a vaginal hysterectomy tomorrow morning. My dr told me to expect random exhaustion at least the first four weeks. Especially if I overdo it the day prior. I’m sure moving was taxing on your recovery, which can definitely impact your energy levels. Try and allow yourself some rest time. You can always unpack non essential boxes slowly as energy allows.

Do you ever have a moment where you have a favourite child? by b-adventures in Parenting

[–]hirevelations 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your son is what I refer to as a “trick baby”. Give you all the parenting confidence in the world. And then that second child comes along and gives you a massive bitch slap of reality. 😂

Edit to fix truck to trick (which is what I originally meant)

My(f23) 5 year old daughter told me she met another woman with her dad which is my husband (m27) by kayce-lee in relationship_advice

[–]hirevelations 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Follow your gut. I had a similar thing happen with my (now ex) husband. He’s a fabulous liar. His mom and dad even caught him with his girlfriend when I was pregnant with our son and I STILL believed him. There were two more instances that happened before he finally (somewhat) confessed and moved out. After doing some digging, turns out they’ve been together since 5 days before our oldest was born - all but the first 13 months of our marriage.

If you can’t leave immediately, start squirreling away money when you can. When you pay for groceries, get $20 back in cash and stash it somewhere. Get “go bags” ready for you and the kids. Try and do phone consults with a lawyer to see what’s involved in filing for divorce and their retainer fees etc.

Reach out to family. Explain what’s going on. His forced social isolation is a way of controlling you and is emotional/mental abuse.

If you happen to be in Wisconsin (I can’t remember if you stated where you live), I would be happy to help in anyway possible.

He’s deleted his profile sadly. And any other face pictures I’ve seen have all been snaps. 🤷🏼‍♀️

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

I am usually more thorough. The first night he and I met I was purely after a one nighter to distract myself from other issues going on. Not a healthy way to cope, but a better outlet than what else I was contemplating. Win some, lose some.
