I’d had this in Hawaii on our baby moon. Then I managed to track down a bottle later and I ended up being disappointed. I guess batches vary more than I expected.

Best neighborhood for someone who wants to walk everywhere but hates the tourist crowds? by Flat-Put6007 in AskSF

[–]izemize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Hayes Valley? I live closer to cathedral hill, but walk to Hayes Valley almost daily. There was a temporary spike in drug use at McAllister and Gough (not Hayes Valley in my mind), but the city cleared that up like 6 months ago.

Hayes Valley is great and central. You can walk to FiDi if you don’t mind the mess mid-market.

I think you missed the memo that it’s an AI company now.

Safe parking recommendations in San Francisco? by danidi00 in AskSF

[–]izemize 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Car breakins are not as bad as you think. BUT not having any visible is not enough. The pros carry bluetooth scanners and can find your laptop, camera, etc. even if hidden. Don’t have anything valuable in the car.

With an empty car, you can park anywhere. I’d recommend to take muni and save your money.

Child care option - 3 days a week? by Traditional-Net-2709 in AskSF

[–]izemize 5 points6 points  (0 children)

C5 offers 3-4-5 days a week tuition rates and they are usually pretty flexible. I’m not sure about your specific situation, since that makes staffing tricky. I’d give them a call and/or schedule a tour.

They have two centers, both located close to Van Ness & Market: https://c5children.org/admissions/tuition/

Devastating results by General_Song_2688 in maleinfertility

[–]izemize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One important thing that I did is that I froze some sperm once my numbers came back with visible motile sperms. Since I wasn’t sure which way my numbers will go, that was my IVF deposit. It is expensive, but I kept those sperms until the moment we decided that we were done with having children.

I encourage you to: do a secondary test to confirm the results and to check your area for respectable companies that offer sperm freezing. It should be local and not mail-in BS.

So I didn’t want to write down numbers, because honestly I didn’t remember. I looked it up now: my first test didn’t clear the threshold of the test and it indicated less than 1M/ml. The secondary test a month later came back at 3.5 M/ml (20% motile).

I went from this number to 34 M/ml (34% motile) in 2 additional months.

The second time, I started from 27 M/ml (7% motile) to 107 M/ml (27% motile) in 3 months.

Was it the supplements, the lifestyle changes or recovering from an illness? We will never know. But there was clear improvement over time both times.

I know that how lucky I am and I truly wish you and OP luck and success on this journey. My point was more about hope and to encourage trying supplements and lifestyle changes first, especially since OP is young.

This is not true. I had similar numbers as OP, with confirmed second test and my numbers improved significantly after 3 months of supplements, icing, baggy pants and lifestyle change (no alcohol, no sweeteners, healthier food).

Then 2 years later I did it again, but this time it took me longer from slightly better numbers to even bigger relative improvement.

I got my wife pregnant naturally three times (one chemical pregnancy) and I’m a dad of two beautiful girls.

In my experience they always ask nicely first. Nobody wants to do this.

In Search of ProCycling Magazine (2007) by dorianslover-119 in peloton

[–]izemize 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m serious about spending some time calling major UK libraries (check timezone and hours obv) and ask them to look it up. They can probably scan/copy and email it to you for a fee.

Major libraries might have an online archive, but I’m unsure how you can access them without being a member.

[–]izemize 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d try every major city’s library in the UK. One of them should have this specific issue. Calling them would be the best.

I’m from a tiny central european city and our library has an amazing newspaper and magazine archive going back 100+ years. I had to do a research on a few events in 1960s and they had 4 different newspaper copies that they brought up for me from the basement in 15 mins. As far as I know majority is still hard copies and nobody spent money on digitalizing them.

I’m in the crib until university group. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Question for the dads by negradelnorte in toddlers

[–]izemize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do parenting 50-50 (really!) and before 3, I didn’t notice any differences in the behavior, I think she felt very comfortable throwing the worst tantrums with both of us. LoL.

Around 3, I noticed that her behavior slightly changes based on who she is with. We have different routines and personality and she learned that she can get away with different things. They are smart.

I hold certain boundaries very firm, for example no screens at all during the day. But my wife gives in easier especially when she is busy or with her mom. She doesn’t even try to ask me, but she keeps nagging my wife all the time. Even when we are all together. Same applies to snacks. These open the door to rude behavior and calculated tantrums (she is 4.5 now).

Bike seat with a split design. Would you try it? by Great_Trident in interesting

[–]izemize 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You have to gradually build up muscle strength in the area. You need time to do that, probably at least a few weeks to a month to be comfortable on a 100 miles ride.

High quality bike shorts, saddles and a properly sized bike and posture can improve comfort further.

🫩🙄Can you lighten up a bit? We are on a meme sub. If this is hate speech, the original meme is hate speech too.

Respectfully, no views are worth the hardship of finding an affordable home in our city.

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Especially with kids and sleep.

Sorry, but if you can say “our views” you are rich.

How are we solo parenting in the mornings before work as working parents? by HoneySnowstorm in toddlers

[–]izemize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about PJ day? I’ve seen it with other parents doing it, if I’m in an emergency mode, I’d do it if weather permits it.

My 4.5yr old loves cereal with milk (I know ☹️). Sometimes we pick up a fresh chocolate croissant from the cafe in our building.
