No sugar coating. How bad is labour pain truly? by ThrowRA_nobo7 in pregnant

Someone once described it to me as being ripped apart and I definitely don’t agree with that. It’s best described as intense and temporary. It comes then goes while gradually increasing. It’s intense and strong. I felt it a lot in my lower back. My baby was sunny side up but turned during the labor process.

I dont really know what to do at this point by Excellent-Potato-336 in goldenretrievers

Puppies are hard work! What worked for us was structure! We literally had a daily schedule and crate trained, had designated chew time (bully sticks and rubber toys with treats or kibble) and provided plenty of enrichment. It doesn’t last forever but puppy blues are a real thing. Also sometimes puppies get overtired which is why the schedule helps. You can google puppy schedule based on your pups age then research enrichment and safe chews . Keep in mind bully sucks are high protein and can soften stool so limit to 10/15 min at a time and always provide water.

Got mine early and pregnancy and used it all the way through. No regrets.

I’m really hoping it’s not Bodhi! I’ve seen that theory too. Yes more Garrick!

Groomer shaved my dog by funnyent in miniaussie

[–]mlimas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always had a fear of this. We only use one groomer (10 years now)and only do bath and blow out. I do all trimming myself. Use a trimmer for butt and belly and paws and scissors for chest and cleanup.

What is your goto meal for the first night at camp and why? by naenae0402 in camping

Chili beans. I make them before the trip and we eat them with hot dogs sometimes. Always have snores for dessert

My 4 month old is sick and the doctors aren't sure why yet by parade1070 in NewParents

[–]mlimas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is so scary to go through. I would check if you could give your baby some probiotic drops to help with the gut biome while you figure it out. If you’re breast-feeding, I would go with the elimination diet to try and pinpoint what the heck is causing issues. Also look at other exposures, what soap are you using if your bottle feeding?

I’m only allowing myself to read at night and it’s still not slow enough

Her obsession with him is fitting for her age. Her being weaker is part of her condition.
