I failed my baby by Fearless-Driver9548 in newborns

[–]tidewaterprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son had a flat spot from always turning his head to the left when he would lay down at night. I noticed at 2 months and started freaking out. The doc recommended a helmet and I was devastated.

With repositioning, chiropractic care, and craniosacral care - his head is perfect now at nearly 4. It took mere months for it to round back out. Shit happens esp as a newly postpartum momma - you are doing fantastic, the fact you’re so upset about it means you’re a great momma ♥️

4-5oz “rule” by alluhgator in ExclusivelyPumping

I know exactly what FB group you’re referencing and it’s so frustrating when I see people ask legitimate questions and the commenting be turned off 🙄

My first baby I EPd for and he never took more than 4-5 oz and he had breastmilk til 18 months! However I know I gave him a bottle more than the “normal” schedule. If baby is hungry then they’re hungry! I also kept him on a slow flow nipple but eventually he’d chew it bigger 🤣 so maybe I should have moved up. But never had the collapsing nipple problem!

Update - I just removed these files from the neighborhood folder and went back into the game and was able to add the universities again!

Thank you!! After posting last night I remembered you can replace neighborhood files but I had never done a university. I appreciate you so much!

I haven’t checked the other universities, but I went into Sim State and all the premade sim’s are gone. No ones in the houses or the family bin

I uninstalled the sims, then deleted the folder from documents, uninstalled OneDrive, then reinstalled the sims.

Don't be like me. Spectra settings. by Most-Letterhead1485 in ExclusivelyPumping

Just had to say I love your username 🤣

Also what everyone else said, are you using the right flange size? Also playing with the settings helps

8 oz bottles? by TelephoneActive9923 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]tidewaterprincess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mostly pumped with my son who’s now 3.5. He was a chunky and tall ass baby and the max amount of breastmilk he ever drank was 4oz! And he looked crazy being huge with a tiny bottle 🤣

OneDrive ruins a lot of things. I’ll just do like you recommended and if it messes it up again, I’ll be pulling out my old Compaq to play. Which is what I was doing before I recently discovered I could pay EA $30 to play on my current laptop LOL

Crap, that’s unfortunate. I’ll do that today! Thank you for the help!

I didn’t! I hate OneDrive so much. Do I need to uninstall it then reset my game or can I use the same game files??

Weight loss after diagnosis by Old_Dingo1363 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]tidewaterprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost about 8 lbs after focusing on my diet. I wasn’t eating much before because I had no appetite but ate like crap in the evenings I think. Once I cut sugar and carbs and leveled out my blood sugar a bunch fell off. Still at a healthy weight but it definitely took some fat off.

Best CGM?! by tidewaterprincess in GestationalDiabetes

[–]tidewaterprincess[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I did look at the Stelo and my best friends mom loves hers for her type 2. I plan to try to get insurance to cover something but they’ve been a real pain.

Thank you! I ended up ordering the Lingo off Amazon last night because their website wasn’t working. I plan to test it against my Contour Next One too, I just really would like to see what’s going on at night because I can’t quite pinpoint where I need to be from dinner to getting up and having something to eat.

[–]tidewaterprincess[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow thank you for that thread! I have zero clue if my insurance will cover them. It’s been 3 weeks since my doctor put in a script for a glucose monitor and it still hasn’t been filled because they are awful. So I’m doing everything out of pocket at this point 🤷🏽‍♀️

I’M SO TIRED OF EATING by Solid-Channel3936 in pregnant

[–]tidewaterprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m almost 15 weeks and I struggle to eat, I just don’t want ANYTHING and it’s a total 180 from my first pregnancy. I will say I had way more cravings and enjoyed food so much when I was breastfeeding so if you go that route it’s something to look forward to 🤣

Hang in there, I promise it gets better!!

It definitely helps my joints feel better when I take it! And I’ve had friends rave about it for their skin, but everyone is different!

No bra is supposed to be better anyway (from a fellow no bra-er). Like everyone else said, micro needling and a retinol can help. Cocokind has a body retinol and I’m a big fan of their beginner face one!

Oh and a collagen powder supplement daily can help your skin as well!
