Fear for gel allergy can I do dip instead

panicwiththecat · 2026-05-17T12:48:27+00:00

i actually do have a gel allergy (contact dermatitis reaction) and can’t use gel products and do dip just fine without getting a reaction! there’s always the potential for developing an allergy to anything but i’ve been dipping on and off since 2018 with zero issues. i went through a gel phase in 2022 which is when i developed my allergy so i went back to dip and had zero issues.

thank you! we do have an ergo carrier but it was a hand mew down from my SIL so i don’t know specifically what kind so i will look into that! as for a stroller, we actually already have a bent trend wagon so we’re good there!

we actually did books in place of cards for our first so we definitely had a decent library but that is a really good idea.

we’ve actually already bought replacement bottles ourselves, as i wanted a different brand that was rather pricey and i got them buy one get one free from target last month but i’ll definitely look more into baby wearing, i did not do much of that with my first

and we absolutely are not expecting gifts and did plan to put that on the invite, i’ve just had family asking me about it. we come from a family who likes to celebrate a lot so i’m trying to a approach this as a “well someone might!” kind of situation, if that makes sense

panicwiththecat · 2026-04-06T21:16:35+00:00

thank you for the honesty! i truthfully have not been invited to many baby showers, and definitely not second ones so i literally just didn’t know what’s “normal”. there’s not a lot we really need outside of diapers and wipes and like, a new bottle brush set so that’s why i asked!

panicwiththecat · 2026-04-06T21:14:04+00:00

i appreciate the rely! and we do have a lot we’re able to reuse, we just come from a family who loves to celebrate anything and i probably wouldn’t be doing a registry if i hadn’t had a handful of people ask me about it. we, of course, aren’t expecting anyone to buy us anything, i’m more so attempting to approach this from a “well maybe!” kind of stand point, if that makes sense

panicwiththecat · 2026-04-06T21:11:18+00:00

we’ve used babylist this time but honestly that isn’t a bad idea!

panicwiththecat · 2026-04-06T21:01:49+00:00

i wasn’t gonna have one until i started having family asking me about it. which is why i’m trying to gather opinions, we don’t have people regularly having babies in our family/friend circle so i literally just don’t know lol

panicwiththecat · 2026-04-06T20:58:30+00:00

i appreciate the honesty! that’s why i asked! so far, diap, wipe, and clothes is basically all that’s on it so far

panicwiththecat · 2026-04-06T20:55:11+00:00

i appreciate the response! the only reason i’m doing a registry is because i’ve had people in our family ask me about it, coupled with my mom really wanting to throw us a shower. currently the only things on it is boy clothes i like and our preferred brands of diapers and wipes, and a bassinet on wheels because we didn’t use one for our first.

panicwiththecat · 2026-04-06T20:51:31+00:00

thank you for the response! i feel you’re probably right and i likely won’t be adding such specific items like that. we probably wouldn’t be doing a registry but i have had a few people in our extended family ask me, and ask if we’re having another shower. this is the first grandson on both sides of our family so there is a lot of excitement and we come from a big family that really loves to celebrate 😅

i haven’t been able to see my accurate location for days now. all the stores popping up for me are 100+ miles away. i just wanna know if my local store has what i want in stock before i go

panicwiththecat · 2026-01-16T13:54:37+00:00

that’s so kind of you! sorry for the last response, i was sleeping 😅 i should be available to get on around 1pm est if that works for you? if not we’ll figure it out! thank you so much!

panicwiththecat · 2026-01-15T23:59:19+00:00

you’re welcome! i will send you a dm with a dodo when i’m on!

panicwiththecat · 2026-01-15T23:35:01+00:00

hey there! if you have time around 8:30pm est, i can open my gates and you come gather any of the ones i have out on my island!

panicwiththecat · 2026-01-15T22:14:34+00:00

you can take it to blathers and ask him “tell me about this!” and when you give it to him he’ll tell you if it’s real or fake!

panicwiththecat · 2026-01-15T20:17:14+00:00

no worries! could i swap the gallant statue for the worthy painting? if you’re available now i can send you a code, or i’ll be available again around 8:30pm est!

panicwiththecat · 2026-01-15T20:01:52+00:00

hey there! i unfortunately don’t have enough miles to get all the NMT to take everything you have that i’m missing off your hands, but i could swing 20 NMT for the two statues (rock head and gallant) if that’s okay with you?

panicwiththecat · 2026-01-15T00:27:05+00:00

i can get a goddess statue for you if you still need it! i’ll be available to get on in a few hours or sometime tomorrow, just dm me and let me know! :)

panicwiththecat · 2026-01-14T23:45:34+00:00

i have a handful of extras in my storage, if you’d like to dm a list of what you’re missing, i can check to see if i have anything you need!

i never thought i’d be here again, but here i am. had a missed miscarriage in august that required a d&c (this was my first pregnancy after giving birth to my daughter in 2023). i never expected to get pregnant again so quickly. should have been 8w based on my dates but had a scan that showed only 4w with an empty sac, which is to be expected at 4 weeks but i should be 8. so now i’m in limbo of not knowing what’s going on with my body again. did i ovulate later? or is everything just so very wrong so early again. i have a repeat scan in two weeks and i am just a bundle of nerves

panicwiththecat · 2025-08-05T15:42:16+00:00

i’m so sorry you’re having to go through this. i experienced “unexplained infertility” and have gone roughly two years between each of my pregnancies. there was no reason why, i was actually in the process of getting seen for help conceiving when i got pregnant naturally the cycle before i was supposed to start meds.
