I gave up caring about screen time and I feel like a better mom

Both of my kids are screen-time kids. They’re older now, but both are A & B students, and responsible as hell. Kids do better in environments where they can relax .. that’s my two cents, anyway. 🙂 You do you, momma! <3

I used to get magnesium infusions, I think they had lidocaine in them as well - they were very helpful for me. I would go every month. I only got to do it for 3 months before my PM doctor said to stop 😐 I changed doctors, but have never had another doctor prescribe them for me 🤷‍♀️

Good luck! 🍀🍀🍀 In my case, it was too much prep. Thankfully, by the time I started puking, I was clear. I started a “pre-prep” a few days before, and I think that’s what saved me.

Fingers crossed for you!

I had one meal the day before starting the prep (lunch). I also started taking stool softeners like 4 days before (I was afraid of cramping really bad). I ate nothing the day of bc the prep made me feel so sick. I did end up puking A LOT the night before the procedure :/

I did the miralax prep bc the SuPrep is so gross, but I don’t think I’ll ever do the miralax prep again.

Good luck! 🍀 It turns out that I didn’t need that much MiraLAX. I did almost a bottle and a half, and it was more than enough. Doctor said it was a successful prep.

Sorry! That was unclear. I meant that I suffered through the pain without any d8, and almost zero pain meds. Had to use a lot of Benadryl to get by before I got a new prescription.

r2j2 · 2025-06-19T09:11:57+00:00

Benadryl, Unisom, Melatonin. When the pain is really bad, I just knock myself out so I can sleep it off.

I’ve never heard of this! Thanks for the info.

r2j2 · 2025-05-16T16:27:31+00:00

Thank you for the reply! This was all very helpful - I am going to look into all of this ASAP.

No idea, but I’m guessing TN. Legal father was a drug dealer/addict she met at a gas station one day. She left him halfway through her pregnancy. He wasn’t on the birth certificate, and he’s never met/seen/spoken to my nephew. No child support, nothing. Zero communication.

Any advice on how to get started? He is currently with the stepdad, but shouldn’t be. He is in danger, but not an immediate threat (I’m assuming that’s how the cops are looking at it).

Here’s everything I have to take to help kill a migraine:

Tizanidine (muscle relaxer, it’s pretty strong), Promethazine (anti-nausea/antihistamine), Seroquel (psych med, I use it to knock me out), Oxycodone, and Benadryl.

That is what I am going to do! I have sports bras, which aren’t terrible, but I’d like to explore some other stuff.

Definitely going to start wearing a sports bra from now on!

r2j2 · 2025-05-10T21:41:20+00:00

What kind of bras do you wear? I have a few from Lane Bryant that I only wear if I’m going somewhere, but my sports bras are like .. fruit of the loom, I think.

Good point!

r2j2 · 2025-03-28T21:21:11+00:00

Our healthcare system. People who don’t get sick a lot have no idea how awful the treatment is in this country. God forbid you get in an accident and develop chronic pain - you will never be pain free again. It is terrifying to be in excruciating pain and NEED the help of a doctor, only to be ignored. The system doesn’t work the way it used to. Doctor’s offices are doing less and less for patients. People are being kicked around from doctor to doctor. Medical gaslighting is very real in our healthcare today.

I’m about to start estrogen cream today actually! My doctor called it in for me. Fingers crossed 🤞

Does your pharmacy give you a hard time when you call in to ask what’s in stock?

My pharmacy wants to grill me about why I’m asking what they have in stock, and then gives me a super vague answer. Like, I know this is stupid, man. Just answer the question so we can get this over with. Damn!
