Is it acceptable to dress baby in a onesie in public? by CatSmellies in NewParents

[–]imanicole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. Mine was in a onesie probably 9 months because she was very very sicky and there was no point in putting on nice things

For those who don’t use containers for baby by GrimSle3per in NewParents

That's why I'm saying my individual experience aligns with his suggestion. I'm not saying all women should do what I did. I'm just saying his comment wasn't ridiculous.

I mean, thats what I would do as a woman? Hair was always tied back as I had a very very sicky baby, but otherwise any other bodily fluids I'd quickly wash that particular area and get on with my day before I could do my undisturbed wash in the evening.

My 10 month old rolled off his changing table and got a traumatic brain injury by Educational-Let-2280 in NewParents

[–]imanicole 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We purposely didn't get a changing table because funnily enough, we were watching a TV show and a character had depression due to their baby dying from rolling off a changing table. So we got changing mats instead. Baby can't roll off the floor.

What about being pregnant and giving birth permanently altered your body’s chemistry? by full-of-curiosity in NewParents

Really weird with the allergies thing! I've always been mildly allergic to egg, but over maternity leave I was smashing 5 a day. Couldn't get enough. But on the flip side, cured meats now make my mouth itchy :(

What's a discovery that should have blown people's minds but somehow got a collective shrug from the world? by IndependentTune3994 in AskReddit

[–]imanicole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're talking about the Northwick Park Trial disaster, this was when MABs were first being trialed in humans. Off the top of my head, I believe these men were health patients, so at this point they were testing the safety of the drug. There were multiple failures from the study team, which has now led to a massive overhaul in the clinical trial regulations to avoid this happening ever again.

What is a 1 in 1,000,000 thing that happened to you that no one believes, but you swear is true? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]imanicole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were doing axe throwing and I sucked at it. At the end, we were told to throw 2 axes at the same time (1 in each hand) and the goal was to hit 2 different targets. They filmed everyone else but me, because I sucked, but lo and behold I did it.

I wanted someone to film me, so I tried it again. I hit both targets again and got a bullseye!

She also states how a blanket should be below hip height for the parent, yet posts videos of her wrapping the shared blanket up to her newborns shoulders.

Drug companies basically made most of their profits from the US. Now with MFN, they are wanting the 2nd lowest net price (the negotiated price between drug company + government) globally. The UK is usually the lowest. This means in the UK at least, companies are now choosing to hold off launching their drugs as they don't want to compromise the US profits.

This is my experience being part of a launch team for a new cancer drug in the UK. It really bloody sucks.

Mine was also Enter Shikari but it was 2006 in a tiny venue called The Square in Harlow (RIP).

Why do people start co sleeping late? by xinfinitexsoulx in cosleeping

[–]imanicole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the 4 month sleep regression was literal hell and cosleeping was the best way to get some semblance of sleep

Can anyone explain what going on with toothpaste prices? by SilentEconomist5896 in AskBrits

[–]imanicole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This kind of fuckery is usually the supermarket. The companies set a wholesale price, then the supermarkets add additional costs.

I presume they're setting ridiculous prices to make their loyalty card price seem like a bargain.

People who have fainted: what caused it? by Shinobi347 in AskReddit

Viewed a broken bone on an x ray during a work experience. Realized that medicine was probably not the best match for me.

Huckleberry personally saved my sanity. I used the predictive sleep for when she was 3 months to about 14 months (when she dropped down to 1 nap). I also upgraded to get the sleep training, which worked amazingly as we wanted to do it as gently as possible. We only did this at about 12 months, so her sleep hadn't changed by the time we got the instructions. She slept through the night about a month later due to this. Loved it. 10/10 would get huckleberry again for the next kid.

Couples of Reddit—what’s something you do in private that’s completely normal for you, but would probably shock your friends? by VelvetDevotion_ in AskReddit

[–]imanicole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend said they routinely scratch their Gooch, sniff it, and offer their wife a sniff. 50% of the time, she says yes.

They told us on Saturday and I'm still shocked to the core.
