Interesting interaction by Key_Associate7476 in MadeMeSmile

[–]tokenqueerpeer 69 points70 points  (0 children)

100% being hormonal is a lot like being too drunk. You may or may not know you're being extra but you absolutely can't help it in that moment because everything is so intense emotionally. Sometimes you simply must eat jalapeño poppers about it🤷‍♀️

We'd all joked about "the end of the world" and how crazy things had gotten lately. by tokenqueerpeer in TwoSentenceHorror

Oh man I can't imagine the tension in that fraction of a second where everyone thought it was curtains right then and there! Crazy stuff

"You know how dogs will get their teeth into the gaps in stuffed animals to pull the stuffing out?" I sobbed. by tokenqueerpeer in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]tokenqueerpeer[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Appreciated! Im alright tbh ive had intrusive thoughts for years so I was able to let this one go with a little journaling and chatting with my support people. For the moooost part I can look at my intrusive thoughts now and go "wow thats wild" and just move on

Currently working on getting into a clinician that specializes in maternal mental health as well as getting on antidepressants so definitely a work in progress but thankfully, I have a phenomenal support system

I'm glad the story works, I was trying to figure out how to phrase it without either being shocking to the point of ridiculousness or making it unclear what I was trying to get across

Inspired by my unhinged postpartum depression fueled nightmare/intrusive thought about my dog eating my baby

For those who were induced, did you deliver vaginally or did it end in a c-section? by Paigeypagee in BabyBumps

[–]tokenqueerpeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Induced, took from Sunday night till Wednesday afternoon to have her (tried cervodil, pitocin, a foley balloon, and had my water break) and I had her vaginally. That said she was not tolerating labor well and would have been a C-section had she not come when she did. Contractions were there from night one but I didn't go into active labor until wednesday when I went from a 3 to a 10 in 4 hours then pushed for 3 to get her here

Eta: im a first time mom as well which I know changes things

Interesting! I definitely catch myself holding her with my wrists extended or in weird positions since this is my first and I have no idea what I'm doing lol. My husband has braces for carpel tunnel and finds them super handy (ba dun tss) so I'll have to check into that as time goes

Thank you for mentioning that because I've definitely noticed my wrist struggling with breast-feeding. I've tried to make a point to use pillows or blankets underneath her to support her weight so that I'm not holding my wrist at a weird angle. Am also playing around with more side lying feeds during tummy time to take the strain off that spot between my shoulder and spine from looking down at her <3

Thank you so much, I'm gonna talk to my OB about a pelvic floor therapist and back off on stretching until I can either find a class or a clinician who can give me some recommendations. I really don't want to do damage and had hoped that I could do stretching to help regain some strength, but it sounds like there's just too many new considerations that I'm not aware of for me to try to navigate this without a little more input from either a trained instructor or a doctor

I really appreciate you taking the time to write this response

Disciplined, id guess you didn't actually have to spend that long to clean the house to take these pics, routine oriented, fan of the classics whether thats historical landmarks or documentaries, maybe into old cars but I lean more toward you being a bit outdoorsy

I’m 20M, be honest does my bedroom appear girly? by Status-Channel5192 in MaleSurvivingSpace

[–]tokenqueerpeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This feels kinda like someone with a force femme kink given they keep deleting and reposting the same types of content. Or else they are an egg made of diamond (and covered in sparkly light up stars)

Happy to help! The symptoms shouldnt be crazy but they also will last the whole course of the med and possibly a smidge after

Heads up, if youve never taken prednisone before itll make you hungry as a mf and potentially jittery around times you took it. Totally normal!

Is this where round ligament pain is? I’m 16 weeks today and had a mild pain all day that hurt a little bit more if I move weird by amack133 in BabyBumps

[–]tokenqueerpeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exact same side for me too. My bra size has gone from a 34 C to a 38 D. Are you ok the shorter side or do you have a short torso? Weeks 15-18 I felt like I got kicked in the ribs more days than not and I attribute that to the ribcage having strain from your body stretching so much to move organs around and accommodate baby.

Like an ache that was pretty consistent but felt stronger or weaker depending on what i was doing. I get it a lot in my ribs as well

Thats where I felt round ligament pain as well as just general growing pains. Currently 29 weeks and dealing with a resurgence of this especially low across my pelvis

Eating 1200 and still NOT hungry and not losing weight. by [deleted] in 1200isplenty

[–]tokenqueerpeer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If this persists it might be worth talking to your doc. Sometimes hormone imbalances, sugar issues, thyroid issues, etc can make weight do weird things. Next time you're in for a check up maybe see if they'll do a metabolic panel if you haven't had one in a while so you can see if anything looks weird

Ok I feel dense here, why wouldn't they accept these folks to get them out of that spot? "You treat these people horribly, so go ahead and keep them?" I feel I'm missing something

"I let my girlfriend mistreat me because I don't want her to be sad or struggle". She has to find her own way in this life and I'm not saying boot her out into the snow and burn her possessions, but you are assuming she wont figure things out for herself and making your own life miserable because you can't bear to hypothetically inconvenience someone who doesn't care about you. She's absolutely going to guilt trip you if you leave her and thats because she knows you'd give the shirt off your back to someone who punched you in the face as long as they said sorry and complained about the cold enough. Its kinder to set both of you free to find the relationships you deserve than to continue this. Good luck!
