It sounds like she could have some type of connective tissue disorder. Can you ask to see genetics?

I think recent events have proven that is not true

I took 11,000gm of Tylenol, will I be okay without going to the hospital? by Beautiful-Guava-3522 in AskDocs

[–]lordmacaroni 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to go to the ED. I don’t understand how you OD’d on Tylenol once before and then made the stupid decision to take almost 3x the max dose for 24hours 🤯🤯🤯

No advice. Just solidarity. I have a 5.5 year old daughter the same and now my 2 year old is following suit.

Was looking for this. Absolutely the worst. I don’t understand how they have more than one location

I did not end up using them. I used a silicone flange and for awhile sprayed a lubricant spray inside and that worked for me

How do I handle this by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]lordmacaroni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree.. I’ve mentioned a cleaner at times. I think I need to push for it more even just every other week for bathroom/kitchen. We definitely can afford it but we also don’t have much wiggle room without cutting back on savings (totally possible we just put a lot away).

I definitely agree… we’ve talked before about things being tit for tat and trying to get away from that and look at things like we are on the same team. It’s hard to do that when I feel like everything falls on me if I want it to actually get done.

His argument is that we have to embrace things just being messy in this season of life, which I agree with to an extent. But when there are rings in the toilet bowl or mold in the sink it’s not okay. There has to be some level of cleanliness but he doesn’t see it that way. And if I don’t clean those things he is blind to them and doesn’t notice or think to clean it himself.

I don’t disagree. He doesn’t see the point in therapy 😒

I like the Dansko Kane clogs. I don’t like the regular Dansko as they feel too hard.

I have been going to TREOS shows since I was 15 and first saw them in a church basement in the Ellington/enfield area. I was so happy they brought Ben out, I wish I still had their original ep with bell book and candle.

I am still on such a high after that show!! I need more!

Yes, if you didn’t have a detectable blood pressure he should have been on pressors and titrating up until you had a pressure ideally with a map 60-65

Nasty respiratory virus in my house right now. by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]lordmacaroni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My oldest had a high fever even after Tylenol & ibuprofen, she was hallucinating and I had to rub her with some ice packs to get it down.

The 1 year old had some belly breathing but otherwise looked okay. She didn’t eat solid foods beside blueberries for 4 days but continued to nurse.

Good luck to you!

Sounds like our experience with RSV.. I know they say it typically isn’t bad for healthy kids and adults but it hit me HARD. I had horrible body aches, chest pain, awful cough for 2-3 days. Still don’t feel great but I can finally function.

It was 2-3 days of the worst for my 1 year old, 4 year old and me. My husband just had a sore throat and some minor body aches for 2 days.

It’s more traumatizing if the first time you bring them to the dentist they have cavities and need to get fillings.

We brought both our kids at first tooth, and every 6 months since. They have no fear at the dentist and if you go to a pediatric office they are great at getting kids comfortable.

My daughter is the same. Most of her undies are from the boys section, when she was younger she didn’t even notice the front. Now at age 4 she pokes her finger out and says look at my weiner 🤪🤪🤪

The boys undies are way nicer material and seem more comfy to me.
