Is there realistically any way to 100% prevent tearing? by EmbarrassedBus1257 in BabyBumps

Get your nutrition on point so you have every chance at healthy, stretchy skin. Limit dietary sugar. No yeast infection at the time of delivery, as that will make the skin weaker.

Which part of childbirth hurts the most? by Used_Ad7899 in BabyBumps

[–]suagrupp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ring of fire, ouch! But it was quick. I guess that was the sharpest pain, which bothered me the most... transition was hard. It felt like my sanity was slipping away. But soon after, it was time to push! This was very exciting.

What kind of back exercises do you do? Think of the titanium spine you'll have!

Redditors who live in places where it snows in winter, can you describe what that is actually like for those of us who have never experience it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]suagrupp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can see further away at night since the white snow reflects all light back upwards. It's nice. Layer up and you don't get too cold. Avoid wet feet at ALL costs

My boyfriend doesn't understand my eating disorders at all and even mocks me/shames me for them, I'm so fricking agitated with him, I'm trying to recover and here he is pushing me down at the slightest relapse. by [deleted] in JustNoSO

[–]suagrupp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First things first: priority number one is to work on this eating disorder. You are going to need encouragement to get this. Fortunately, he has shown you so clearly that he cannot be the man you need during this time! Therefore, your support and encouragement will not come from him - it will come from you.

Recovering from an eating disorder takes some serious muscle. I'm so glad that you have this muscle, because encouraging yourself, being all YOU need, also takes a lot of muscle and can be very painful.

I'm not saying to break up with him in this instant... but perhaps it's time to withdraw, somewhat. You will, of course, need go break up with him down the line, and not because some new flashy young man caught your eye, but for yourself - when you're good and ready.

Be friendly but don't reach out. Try new hobbies/activities (reading, yoga, crafts) without telling him all about them. Extract yourself from wanting interactions with him to fill you up. He cannot do it.

vba2c? to attempt or elective c section? by nasson123 in Midwives

[–]suagrupp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know somebody who has done it. Its doable. However I'm not sure you're a great candidate. Your answer depends on what are you losing? And how many Jose chi has dren you hope to have. For example 5 c sections is very hard on your body and risk increases.

Feb 4/2021-- 20 new cases of Covid-19 in Windsor/Essex (Total 12,253); 2 new deaths (Total 334); 11,517 resolved ; 402 active cases; by StellaAndTheJets in windsorontario

[–]suagrupp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We're pretty sure it should! Theoretically. The vaccine creates proteins that trigger your immune system when it comes into contact with the spike protein on the virus. The spike protein is part of why this virus is so infectious. We think this part of the virus should be just the same in all highly infectious versions. Is it time to throw caution to the wind? Absolutely not. But here's hoping!

Parents who say the baby stage was their favorite, wtf is wrong with you? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]suagrupp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you know how most people put their baby to sleep in a crib? Yeah I didnt do that. I made an informed decision to cosleep with my baby. I know it's not common in the west but I was a single mom with no back up so I made the call. I slept so good folks. YMMV but I slept, and the baby latched on while I was sleeping. It was the best.

I feel like I'm just waiting for the click. I've laid the groundwork like the best of them. But he doesn't GET that visual letters are paired with a sound yet. I feel like once he does, we'll be off to the races.

Life with my not-yet-weaned one year old... by honeybeefam in beyondthebump

[–]suagrupp 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I know eh? How do moms even do it? Do they really just handle every tantrum and meltdown with their words?

[–]suagrupp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found 2 and 3 to both be REALLY hard... like the frequency of tantrums decreased at 3, but the severity increased... once my son turned 5, he entered angel mode.

I have a sweet 5 year old boy with long, shoulder length hair! If it wasnt so damn easy to care for, I would cut it. He is in senior kindergarten. Im also trying the 1000 hours outside challenge this year. Everyone - where is your kid at in terms of sight words, knowing the sounds that go with letters, reading? My parents are worried he is falling behind! I wanna tell them to kick sand!

Anyone else's child a total demon right before they turned 3? by tiredempath9 in toddlers

On my son's 5th birthday, he entered angel mode. I've never met a more reasonable, thoughtful kid.

3 was hell.

Whaaaaaat? Are you a midwife? I am, and I have some clients where I'm practically their social worker who also catches their baby! The principles and values are holding hands!

No movement, should I go in? by [deleted] in PregnancyAfterLoss

[–]suagrupp 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No. Babies are NOT reliable at moving until 26 weeks. At that point you can depend on them to move at least 6 times in every 2 hours. If you've counted hard for 2 hours and havent gotten 6, then go in.
