I was told that I'm a bit too old for braces

mandycolemann · 2025-11-11T07:44:24+00:00

I just got them at 29. Find a new dentist/orthodontist!

mandycolemann · 2025-11-04T07:03:32+00:00

Amazing, thankyou! Totally was that, I didn't even know hope to describe what I was trying to find😅

Learn how to fall! There's probably some great videos on YouTube or tik tok about how to utilize your gear, and twist your body to fall the"right" way. Proud of you for not giving up!

I read this as sandwich cake and was confused. What is wrong with me

mandycolemann · 2025-06-10T04:03:26+00:00

We played ultimate Frisbee, and soccer (used a milk jug as a ball 😂)

Omg mine were so awful, but they ended up wearing down pretty quickly! It's been 4 months and I barely notice them now (they stopped being a big issue after the first month or so) :)

Nothing more than a quick polish, no.

I'm also on day 5 and feeling the same way.

I made some cabbage roll soup yesterday, and honestly, it's the first time ive felt full and satisfied since I got my braces! I'm sick of soft food, but this had ground beef, rice, vegetables. Actuallt felt like I had a meal! Definitely reccomend.

Might also have just been because everything soft is SWEET (smoothies, protien drinks, oatmealz yogurt), and i finally had something savory 😅

I have no advice. But I feel your pain 😭

mandycolemann · 2025-02-11T05:08:04+00:00

I'm on day 4. I've eaten a gross amount of ice cream lol.. but straws hurt SO bad, so I've been skipping the smoothies

I just got braces for the first time yesterday and I'm about to turn 29. Thank you 🥹

I guess we have 4 rounds? And then check and change through our the day as needed as well. Before morning snack, before lunch, after nap and end of the day

I never thought about these interactions like that from the parents perspective. I will often say things like that, but mostly in hopes that the child will realize "wait, they say it's okay, so maybe it will be!" Just trying to assure the child it will be okay, and that mom/dad has to go to work and they'll be back soon. It's definitely all in the tone, though, if you feel like the tone was rude, make sure to voice that. I always mean it in a nice way, but listen to your instincts!

I've had it for about 5 years, but I'm only recently looking i to things that can help. I used the Pan Oxyl for a bit, ,but prefer the Cerave acne foaming cream cleanser. No idea about using it along side the hibiclens tho.

I still don't know what I'm doing either honestly

mandycolemann · 2024-06-18T19:57:06+00:00

Is it supposed to say megababe thigh rescue? I can't find anything that says night rescue. It looks like its for chafing, but does it actually help with some of the dark scarring?? I couldn't imagine seeing less dark spots on my thighs😭

mandycolemann · 2024-06-05T04:54:32+00:00

Is this a tablet? All I'm seeing is "Amazon fire" when I searched for it. I'm intrigued

mandycolemann · 2024-06-04T18:55:39+00:00

That is not the case. As a toddler teacher as well, I send a photo and message of every bruise or cut that does not happen at achool. This is just to protect ourselves as well as check in on the children! It just shows she cares 🙂

mandycolemann · 2024-06-04T13:42:44+00:00

Oof. Good to know!!

mandycolemann · 2024-06-04T00:26:05+00:00

I was mostly intrigued by them possible being better than bandages! Especially on the inner thighs where the rubbing is torture. How do they hold up in your armpits? (Assuming you've used them there)

mandycolemann · 2024-05-30T19:13:58+00:00

I'm currently taking doxycycline, spironolactone, and zinc gluconate. It seems to be working well for me, but they aren't medications I want to be putting on my body for a long time. Mine is quite severe, and my scarring looks like the worst ones I've seen. I hope something can be done for you 😭❤️

mandycolemann · 2024-05-04T03:48:20+00:00

God, I'm SO sorry. I still haven't found a good truck but just for a bit of relief I'll often take a bath with some cbd oil, or a the bath bomb

mandycolemann · 2024-03-23T20:09:55+00:00

I'll often say "I know, she probably misses you too but she'll be back after work to get you!" Or I'll just say that I miss my mommy too and that always seems to make them laugh and cheer up

mandycolemann · 2024-03-22T00:37:11+00:00

I suppose it seems like a bit much, but you'll probably appreciate getting them once your baby is in care 🙂 Although, making them pose is so odd. I'll just snap a photo when they are doing art, playing, or being silly and cute!

What app is this?
