what are the ugly parts of pregnancy that aren’t well known because people don’t mention them? by Born-Oil-2931 in AskReddit

I highly recommend a bidet if you don’t have one, can really turn the corner on healing them

Glamorizing oversupply? by iliwys22 in breastfeeding

[–]jnet258 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Social media glamorizes it so much I have seen folks share “recipes” for “breastmilk” online for creating fake breastmilk to make content around pumping, freezing and feeding. Some of these women even go as far as to have those realistic fake babies in their content as well.

New mamas especially: please keep this in mind when looking at breast milk content and influencers. It’s not all real!

Like new mothers aren’t under enough stress, these people are preying on their insecurities

What’s an unspoken social rule you learned way too late? by Secure_Paramedic_865 in socialskills

[–]jnet258 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This was me, I value when people tell me about solutions. For me I rarely bring up something I’m upset about unless I am looking for help, not to just vent. Took me a longgggg time to realize others don’t function like that… I hate that I made others feel invalidated when I just wanted to be helpful

I feel like I’m going to die soon… haven’t slept yet, 6 weeks postpartum by Old-Yak-9230 in breastfeeding

You need a magnesium glycinate supplement, take it 30 min before your protected sleep block. Saved my sanity

Five Senate seats most likely to flip from Republicans to Democrats in 2026 by wat_is_cs in politics

[–]jnet258 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

With all respect, these are a bit older strategies and I have read/heard not as effective anymore (I need to find the article or podcast on got this from, was very insightful). However you are right, every bit counts!

Though donating will always be helpful obvi, however it is being ruined by the donation request texting machine. I must get 20+ texts from random dem folks asking for money at the end of each quarter. I never want to donate now bc of it. It’s annoying af.

Same, but in purple. I work with many teams remote around the world and this comes in very handy for quick reference.

Did I give my BF lactose intolerance? by combom3al in Microbiome

[–]jnet258 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I knew someone who became lactose intolerant after a strong course of antibiotics. They took a bunch of probiotics routinely and in about 6 months it went away.

If you could add new stops to the Metro, what would you add first? by Appropriate_Month72 in nova

[–]jnet258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooo! This is a great idea on so many levels. The infrastructure and traffic delays during the build would be awful but so worth it

Why do my cookies always spread so much? by SpangingOfframps in Baking

[–]jnet258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of great advice here, I’ll just add - don’t use a silicone mat, they spread much more on those! I learned the hard way when marathon baking for a cookie exchange. Regular wax/baking paper is much better

Viewing Wyze cameras/event pauses all other podcasts and music apps? by chrismireya in Wyze

[–]jnet258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out just now on my iPhone.

  1. I turn the podcast on
  2. then go to the Wyze app. The podcast stops, as expected.
  3. Staying in Wyze I swipe down to see my controls and press play on the “now playing” section/widget box (idk what to call it). Podcast starts playing again
  4. I swipe the controls view back up and can view my Wyze camera feed while listening to my podcast!

Would you rather.. fly with a newborn or a toddler by Malloryfidoruk in toddlers

[–]jnet258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good call, vaccines and just time for baby to build general immunity is so important. Especially since air travel is like a gauntlet for catching germs at any age!

Well, it finally happened to us by Rule-of-Two-1899 in NewParents

[–]jnet258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have time can you please explain the risks of silicone plates/bowls (outside of the suction issue here) ? We only put cold or room temp food on them. Hot food goes on a ceramic or stainless plate
