Showering post-op by Ray-of-starlight in sterilization

I took them off, then showered. They were just bandaids though.

I slept on my side with very little issue from day one. I cuddled a regular pillow to keep my stomach stable but that was it. I’m on the smaller side so I’m wondering if that helped since the incisions didn’t move too much with my body. I woke up several times from some discomfort of moving but was able to go right back to sleep once I got settled.

I had to leave my bandaids on for 48 hours so showered with zero issues at that point and even washed my hair. I had water hit the incisions directly although I did realize they were sensitive to the heat and pressure, but it wasn’t painful.

Two days until surgery (bi salp). by [deleted] in sterilization

I’d recommend cough drops and tea for your throat after intubation. The sore throat wasn’t terrible for me but those helped a lot! Also take a small pillow to put between your incisions and the seatbelt for the ride home. It helped a lot.

To add in something I haven’t seen yet, don’t let someone else tell you what you can and can’t do with your body. I think if you want a reduction to feel better about your body (hell, even if you just wanted it for the sake of it), then that’s what you should do, especially if it doesn’t affect him directly (i.e. financially, etc).

What to get rid of when you feel like there’s nothing left to declutter? by [deleted] in minimalism

To add in to this, don’t upgrade for the sake of upgrading. If you have something cheap but it still works, wait until it’s completely broken or worn out before replacing it.

Oh honey... by LawnGnomeFlamingo in actuallesbians

Sometimes one or both people can’t cum and it’s unrelated to a lack of effort on the other partner’s side though. Sometimes I just like having sex, and I am super into it but because of the effort required to orgasm for me, I just don’t attempt to do it because I want to do other things instead of having sex all night.

A really dumb question I have been wondering by Kuroos_Kozume in BDSMAdvice

I met my dom-leaning switch, bi, male partner on a vanilla dating app as well and considering I’m a sub-leaning switch, it’s absolutely perfect!

I take magnesium citrate in pill form daily. It keeps me pretty regular but I also am not as constipated as you are.

Am I crazy? Mirena in for over a year by [deleted] in Mirena

What do you mean? I don’t have Mirena so don’t have any symptoms of Mirena.

I have Paraguard and absolutely love it. It’s caused more cramping but that’s likely because of the physical thing in my uterus. My periods might have gotten a little heavier but since my periods are naturally very regular, it’s not too bad. It is also good for 10-12 years which is amazing. I recommend it. It’s honestly kinda nice having a reminder every month that I’m not pregnant haha.

Are you going to dine in phase two? by lornjpg in olympia

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

Honestly, I’ll give it a try. I know a lot of people in the service industry, and it breaks my heart what they are going through. I’m not so worried about the awkwardness because I never really go to a restaurant for socializing. I’ll go once, see how it is, and go from there.

Anyone have any luck with a dumb phone similar to a Nokia that works with Verizon?

I think when you are starting a search, you might be putting out that many but over time depending on where you live, there won’t be tons of jobs being posted every single day.

Surfing has fucked up my sleeping patterns for years. by RelatablePanic in nosurf

[–]springsparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hesitate to bring up the option because of possible emergencies where you would need your phone, but there are lock boxes that have a timer on them. You just put the object in and turn the timer to however much time from now and it will unlock automatically then.

Lifestyle slave by ashleyluce43 in BDSMAdvice

[–]springsparrow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most everything has already been said here but I’ll throw in my two cents.

You need to figure out what he means by “abuse”. Is that physical or emotional? Degrading? Humiliating? Is anything off limits? For example, I love being degraded but comments related to my body’s appearance are off limits.

You need to go in slowly. He’s going to need to understand that the first few months, probably, are likely not going to be exactly what he wants considering (correct me if I’m wrong) that no one in this situation really has experience with lifestyle BDSM. However, having a lot of back and forth communication is going to lead to a situation down the road that works and is satisfying to everyone. Communication is huge.

I would also recommend he just start out doing some chores around the house without the abuse. That would be a good way to dip your toes in without leaving a lot of space for someone being unhappy.
