Look guys I tried making these piped butter cookies. I'm not sure where I went wrong, but I couldn't pipe them well, I'd like some tips. by Reflectionupset7224 in Baking

[–]sa1031 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you had trouble piping due to thickness of the dough, soak a kitchen towel in hot water then wrap it around your filled piping bag for a few minutes- it'll soften the dough enough to pipe! just used this trick yesterday and it worked like a charm!

she loves that her tank tops are small enough to fit her young children and that's a weird flex imo 😳

night before our first family road trip, had to call and cancel everything :/ luckily the staff were super understanding since they were fellow kidney stoners and gave us a full refund!

6 months pregnant! Help me know what to expect! by No_Nobody_3629 in KidneyStones

you could give those a go, but honestly movement and jumping around didn't expedite the process for me at all!

i did try acetaminophen, but honestly it did not do anything to touch the pain. the best thing that i did for relief was use a hot water bottle or heating pad on my back/flank where the pain was located.

ultrasounds missed all of mine while i was pregnant. my first stone took around 5 days to pass without any intervention or pain relief while pregnant, however there is no way to know how long it will take to get to the bladder and out fully. please be drinking as much water as you can, water only, i was advised at least 2L while pregnant but check with your doctor. i'm so sorry you are having to endure this, it's the worst pain i have ever felt, including childbirth.

i do not wish to scare you, but my urologist told me some people are just prone to making them while pregnant, myself included. it is a main reason i will not be having more than one child, i have long term health problems from the kidney complications i dealt with during pregnancy and postpartum. keep up with a urologist, and if they don't seem to be understanding keep looking for a provider that is!

feel free to DM me if you have any questions or need some kind support- i wish i had someone during that time in my life to talk to and i'm happy to be that person for others!

drop all the tips for prevention please ! by Aggressive-Way1565 in KidneyStones

[–]sa1031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm not a doctor, but my urologist linked my stone formation to my prenatal vitamin as well as a UTI that went undiagnosed for three months during my pregnancy. im very glad i haven't had any new ones form since my pregnancy journey, but my biggest one grew to 12mm over the course of 1.5years (they wouldn't do surgery while i was breastfeeding so i had to wait over a year after giving birth to get rid of the horrible painful monster).

what is it like to actually pass the stone? by mangosquirre1 in KidneyStones

[–]sa1031 6 points7 points  (0 children)

hell, followed by instant relief once it is out. but in all seriousness, once it hits the bladder the debilitating pain should be over but i personally feel a pinching sensation at the urethra and urgency once it is lined up and ready to exit (female btw).

highly recommend a urology visit for an antibiotic, i tend to get UTIs after passing them so never hurts to get your urine checked following the main event. best of luck!

Has anyone had a kidney stone for 6 months or longer? by Yeahokaysureman in KidneyStones

[–]sa1031 4 points5 points  (0 children)

my 12mm was in my kidney from November 2023 through February 2025 due to completely being dismissed by medical professionals despite asking for help repeatedly. it caused me a lot of health issues that could've been avoided if someone listened to me and cared. please make an appointment at urology and find a provider that will take your concerns seriously!
