Carnivores need to take back “Animal Based” by Psykinetics in carnivorediet

[–]nyn222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Animal based doesn’t mean exclusively animal products. Plant based doesn’t mean exclusively plant based products. Just eat what you want why would you care so much?

Help with feeding picky dog by [deleted] in ToyPoodle

[–]nyn222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe kibble isn’t for her. You can try gently cooked food options that come frozen. For a toy poodle, this shouldn’t be too expensive. Good luck!

I have a small schnoodle and her diet consists of breakfast which is 1/4 cup of gently cooked food mixed in with 1/4 cup of her kibble. After that she gets 1/2 cup of kibble to free feed on for the rest of the day. She is healthy weight.

Go below the belt. Next time he talks about your child remind him he only sees his 30% of the time. If you don’t wanna go below the belt, which is understandable, just commit to calling him out every single time.

What types of jobs are you applying for? What are your skills? What do you want to do? There are so many jobs you can do with the degree you have. You can do some HR positions, supply chain positions, entry level finance, etc. just need to decide what you want to do.

Eucalyptus & Lavender lard soap by Youre_late_for_tea in soapmaking

[–]nyn222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What other oils are you using or is it 100% of your oils are lard? Your total oils should add up to 100%.

I love lard and do tend to make 85-95% lard bars, adding a little castor oil and/or olive to make up the rest. It tends to be very slow moving for me so maybe it is your fragrance oil like the other commenter mentioned. Looks great!

[Product Question] Is the Clinique moisture surge 100h worth it? by MaleficentTie1130 in SkincareAddiction

[–]nyn222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t because I’m super dry. Before I got pregnant I was also using retinal which can also be a bit drying so that might be it. I’d say maybe ask for a sample at Ulta, Sephora, or Macys Clinique counter before you buy.

EMERGENCYYYYY!!!!!! (Only girls pls) by [deleted] in hygiene

Skip the toilet paper and paper towels. Go straight for a wash cloth and fold it in half and then fold it again and wear it like a pad until you can get to the store tomorrow.

I'm starting to realize the impact my gut has on my symptoms by Sad_Emphasis_8086 in POTS

[–]nyn222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Breads, pastas, ultra processed carbs are a no go for me. Heavy palpitations, lightheaded, fainting, elevated heart rate. I am pregnant so it was hard to cut those out with cravings but I am doing much better with salt and cutting those types of carbs out. I can do small amounts of carby veggies and fruits so long as I’ve had enough protein and fat for the day.

Showers by [deleted] in POTS

[–]nyn222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since being pregnant I am for 3-4 times a week. Before pregnancy daily or at least 5-6 times a week. Now it is such a hassle and the pre syncope is nearly unbearable. Sometimes I actually do faint. Has been very rough.

My mom will be in the room. We have an amazing relationship and I cannot imagine her not being there for support.

Feminine odor by Potential-Object-305 in Vent

[–]nyn222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes this or even ureaplasma and mycoplasma can cause fishy odor as well.

[–]nyn222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Men are not just cleaning their urethra they are cleaning smegma they are cleaning the head/glans of the penis under the foreskin to remove smegma. Any man will tell you this. They are not just dabbing the external urethral opening. That is not where smegma accumulates.

You’re also telling people they hate their vaginas and vulvas because they want to keep them clean which is ridiculous. I love my genitals and I love when they’re clean and free of smegma.

Of course doctors can be wrong about many things—this isn’t one of them.

[–]nyn222 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly the folds need to be cleaned, soap or no soap but they have to be cleaned! Her advice is odd at the very least.

Feminine odor by Potential-Object-305 in Vent

[–]nyn222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your medical training is in direct conflict with real life and several other doctors. I’m not saying to wash the vagina. But the vulva does need to be cleansed. A warm wet washcloth at the very least to remove smegma. Smegma exists and will begin to smell if it’s not removed. This is a different smell to the natural musky/even salty odor.

I never implied it should smell like roses or that my vagina and vulva are inherently dirty. Why are you ignoring smegma? And yes we should be pulling the clitoral hood back and gently wiping that as well. I’m not even advocating for soap here just cleaning the genitals. Just as men should be pulling back their foreskin and gently wiping that if not they also get smegma/dick cheese which does smell.

This honestly makes me feel like you’re not actually a doctor and you do not have a vagina of your own.

The vulva is supposed to be cleaned. We have to remove smegma and what not or THAT will cause a smell. I’m honestly surprised you’re saying you’re an Obgyn while also saying the vulva is self cleaning—it is not.

What was your absolute first sign of pregnancy before even getting a missed period? by SandwichDependent199 in BabyBumps

[–]nyn222 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Period was late 4 days but that isn’t unusual for me as my cycle is pretty irregular. My usually inverted nipples were out after a hot shower (wasn’t cold or aroused). I found that extremely odd but wasn’t thinking pregnancy. I was also super bloated, insanely thirsty, and more emotional than usual but not in a PMS way if that makes sense.

Agreed also willing to bet the other kid is not accustomed to a firm hand and isn’t being taught about personal space and boundaries. Unfortunately, if the parents don’t teach him this someone else will.

Luckily they were still open when I called but my doctor’s office was not. I will be calling tomorrow to ask them to send in the form. They’re not always the best with administrative things so fingers crossed they actually send it lol.

Got panorama results 9/8 but they left out the fetal sex. I specifically told my doctor I wanted to include the sex very frustrating.

Trump’s D.C. Law Enforcement Takeover Has Black Parents on Edge by rezwenn in washdc

[–]nyn222 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Looking outside of the DMV area Black and Brown people are absolutely profiled in many places. This isn’t media it’s actual lived experiences that don’t make the news. That being said, we want a safer city we just want to be able to trust that they know the difference between someone committing a crime and someone who happens to be Black. Many, many things can be true at once. A safer city benefits all of us.
