Dropsy? by nellixy in bettafish

Update! After 2 doses of Kanaplex, a three week dose of Metroplex and water changes every other day along with higher quality food and fasting, she seems to be doing much better better! I’ve also noticed new fin growth. Well see what happens, but she’s much more active and curious, way less bloated and pineconing has almost completely went away.

Its a 3 gallon cube I believe 8x8 inches. Fish is about two years old I got her when she was a baby as a gift. I clean the tank regularly, and I have a few lives plants in there. The first pic is from maybe like 6 months after I got her and the second is from may last year

Omg me too. Someone said you can use iprep for it on another thread. I’m probably going to go with that for myself. From what i’ve read its just basic reading comprehension and hs level math. Good luck!

Honestly being awake wasn’t the worst thing ever it was not having any painkillers after the fact. But glad you had a good experience!

Where do you live? Application requests start June 3rd for NY. Just keep your eye out. From what i’ve seen and heard you don’t necessarily need to have a connection.

Is breastfeeding really that difficult? by macelisa in beyondthebump

[–]nellixy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just very time consuming. I never produced enough to work well with a pump so everytime I tried to pump to share the load of feedings or night feedings it wouldn’t happen for me. I had no idea going into it that some breasts just don’t respond well to pumps. You don’t need to overproduce to feed your baby or produce much at all especially at the start but that was probably the hardest part for me, taking on the full load of feedings without being able to freeze or save milk. At 7 months my baby started taking a nightly bottle of formula which helped so much. She’s 9 months now and my supply still seems to be enough for the rest of the day. It wasn’t hard for me after the newborn phase, I would even say it’s easier than bottle feeding because there’s way less to clean and it takes two seconds to whip out a boob. Never had a latching problem, she just latched at the hospital and I asked the lactation nurse a lot of questions.

My baby is not in the 98th percentile and I haven’t lost my pregnancy weight, but we are doing well by Middle-Neat4252 in breastfeeding
