What Does Your Username Mean?

"mythreesuns" is a reference to.....you guessed it, my three sons! :P

Edited to add: I forgot to mention that the reason why it's mythreesUns instead of mythreesOns is because when I first used that username on WebMD (as soon as I found out my 3rd was a boy) mythreesons was already taken.

Plus, well, I guess, on occasion, they do light up my life.

I'm more "crunchy" (used cloth diapers, used a sling, have a garden, cook from scratch, a bit of a tree-hugger) than most people that I know, but I still have quite a few non-crunchy tendencies...so I'm chewy!! And I'm a mom (of five, I might add).

LOL, I used a sling, cook from scratch (don't bake though), and have six kids .... odds are you homeschool ... right? I did for ten years ...

Mine too is just my name although when my Aunt by marriage and I took some residents from the school we worked at to the state fair one year she walked into a building and yelled to me my family was there. I went into the building and there in huge letters above a pen of, very cute I might add, donkeys was the word JENNY'S. She's so funny. :lol::D

It's one of the few names that I could think of that had that "ae" combination in it. I like the way it looks. :wub:

My user name is the nickname my husband gave me. I collect anything 'penguin' and love feeding and watching wild birds. In my next life, when I have lots of time and a maid, I'll have an aviary full of cockateils. :lol: For now I'll just feed red winged blackbirds who land on my hand to eat peanuts and other songbirds who visit our 7 feeders, 2 birdhouses and large birdbath, with a remote controlled sprinkle attachment. The birds think it's a water fountain/shower head just for their convenience. ;)

That bird bath shower thing sounds neat. It would be fun to watch them in that. :)

Aeon - I've always loved the ae combination character too. There was someone on a message board that I used to go to named Maendi, which was her real name. I never did figure out how she pronounced it though.

Jules - I LOVE (!!!) the squiggles. I wish I would have thought of that. I may borrow the idea someday.

I've used Nantzie as a username since the dawn of time; since around 1995. It comes from my childhood. A friend of mine and I were being goofy with our names one day. She decided to be Melon-E and said I should be Nan-Z. We decided after saying my name a thousand times (like ya do...) that there was definitely a T in there somewhere and it evolved from there. I like it because I never have a problem finding a username that nobody has taken. B)

I've thought about figuring out a different username. Maybe I'll change it to Naentzie or ~Nancy~ someday. :D

My mum can never remember whether my name starts with a K or a C, so she will use both, even in the same card. So it had to be Kaycee.

I just can't figure out what my mums problem is, she named me, so why or how can she get it wrong?

Some birds 'shower' directly under that sprinkler attachment, but Black Capped Chickadees actually lift their wings while under the shower. Other birds land on top of the sprinkler and drink from the 'fountain'. We replaced our dining room window with a huge bay window just to watch our birdee visitors. I can see birds feeding their babies in the 2 birdhouses, from my upstairs studio window. We enjoy birdee activities year round.

That's the funniest thing I've heard in a LONG time. It makes me nostalgic for my family.

It reminds me of my Grandfather pronouncing my mom's name. Her name was Cheryl. He was from Sweden and had a very thick accent. The way he pronounced her name was Shrrl. One syllable. No perceptible vowel. My mom's sister's name was Joyce. If you know anything about a Swedish accent, he pronounced it Yoyce. So instead of Joyce and Cheryl, it was Yoyce and Shrrl.

I think Grandma might have been a little passive agressive... :lol:

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
