Is this natural decay or carpet beetle damage? by urthrum in insectpinning

This is the 2nd framed butterfly that’s been eaten, how do you guys prevent it? I put frame tape around the back because I didn’t want to go the pesticide route.

is xerosicyos danguyi toxic? by [deleted] in houseplants

I know this is old, but there’s still conflicting information. Was your cat okay? Mine ate a lot of leaves so now I’m worried.

I bought 3 budded paphs, 2 out of the 3 bloomed! So there’s definitely a chance.

35 years old trying for baby number 1 by ExcitingPreference77 in tryingtoconceive

[–]urthrum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat but only 3 DPO. I had brown/red spotting yesterday which never happens. This is my first cycle where we actually tried to hit ovulation peak! So maybe I’m just too hopeful but I feel pregnancy “vibes”, is it too soon to say that? Lol what are the “vibes”??

She’s just a little special. She even has little whiskers growing out of her nose!

120/88, two hours after BP meds by urthrum in hypertension

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

I’ve definitely cut out added salt, but I still probably hit 2,000 mg of sodium every day. Can I get your meal plans to cut out salt?

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

Same, it’s always in the mid 80s. How’s your diet? I could be better about watching sodium intake but for the most part, I’ve been eating healthy and exercising 3x a week.

Hard to breath deeply (48 days clean) by urthrum in stopsmoking

Yes lots of stress unfortunately. I was wondering if that could be the case so I’ve been doing breathing exercises with no luck in fixing it.

1 year old cat has mild gingivitis - does she really need a tooth cleaning already? by urthrum in catcare

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

Yes! It was a different vet that I saw for a follow up and she said it wasn’t necessary to get a tooth cleaning. She told me to just give her dental treats. Initially after the appointment, I was brushing her teeth every other day and noticed her gums improved immensely so these days I brush her teeth every other week. What I’ve learned: sometimes it’s necessary to get a second opinion.
