This thread is like the best birth control reading ever.

Both of mine were all natural too. J and my mom were begging the nurses to call an anethesiologist for me, but I refused. DD was born 20 minutes after they broke my water and DS was born in 1 push--I went from contractions being comfortable at 9 minutes apart to no minutes apart and the nurse was yelling for me not to push. Dr ran in, caught him and that was it! I got to cut his cord, nurse him, cuddle him, everything, before J came into the room! He missed the whole thing-and the sad part was that he was in the hospital! The loud speakers apparently don't work in the cafeteria ;)

Now I remember! They had an earthshake in Oklahoma today. The lady at the grocery said her daughter is in Oregon and they have been warned to get supplies. They are expecting a 9.0 earthquake. Any of you Pacific Northwest residents heard this?

celiac-mommy Collaborator

they had an earthquake in Oklahoma but we're supposed to get one in Oregon too :unsure: that's random :P

I haven't heard anything and I'm in Portland right now. We've had the radio on all day too. I'll do some digging...

Sorry, I forgot you weren't there! I feel I take you all with me everywhere. The grocery lady said her folks live in OK and just had an earthquake. Then she said her daughter in Oregon said they were reporting that the ""geographical signs" were pointing to an earthquake.

All I can find is that no one thinks we are prepared. Especially for the coast-apparently no one is prepared for a tsunami. That reminds me, I need to get some groceries....

Actually, I just wanna make sure I'm on the right side of the Interstate bridge if it happens. I do NOT want to swim the Columbia River to get home!!

When we lived in Sacramento. Ca, we waited for the big one to hit San Fran so we could have beach front property!

The Oracle is being serious (yeah, occasionally I am not trying to be phunny).

A quake of 9.0 severity in a populated area would be devastating. Quakes of that magnitude in recorded history have all been subduction megathrust quakes where tectonic plates slide. The last one on that scale in North America was a 9.2 with the epicenter south of Anchorage, AK, in 1964. The Pacific plate slid under the North American plate by 23 meters. It could have been much worse, but the movement happened kilometers below sea level under Prince William Sound.

If a 9.0 magnitude quake hits in Oregon, Rachelle's home may well suddenly have a beach front on the Pacific Ocean. Assuming the tsunami does not wipe it out. :huh:

mushroom Proficient

Our 7.2 quake was a slip/thrust of the Australian and Pacific plates, but it only moved three meters! Nevertheless, it was under land and comparatively shallow (15 km) so we have pictures of a hedge torn apart and growing beside itself for three meters

We had a 5.0 aftershock yesterday, the biggest in a while, and the first one I have 'heard' since I have been back. What a rattle and a clatter as the shockwave hit the western side of the house :o They said we may have them (aftershocks) for two or three years!! There have been over 1400 so far.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep.  One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem.  Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read, do a sudoku or some other small task, and then go back to bed when she felt sleepy again.  I can't think it did her any harm - she lived  well into her nineties. Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.

      It could be a fructan intolerance? How do you do with dates?  https://www.dietvsdisease.org/sorry-your-gluten-sensitivity-is-actually-a-fructan-intolerance/

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms.  I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free.  Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative.  In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken.  Major mistake!
