little d Enthusiast

these babie are newborn well babies, and also we have transtional babies who are not sick enough to go to the NICU but well enough to stay here in the nusery but in a differnat room. the only reason why i have any babies at the moment is because their moms want sleep. but i can totally relate becuase i was one of those mom 7 yrs ago. but i still didn't get sleep while in the hostiptal so i told the staff just leave her. Later babies are still crying

Oh gosh, yes! I remember that!!

All my babies went in the nursery at night so I could sleep - but the funny thing was I would wake up hearing a baby crying and just KNOW it was mine.

Admittedly having lots of crying babies to deal with would be trying!!! :lol:

little d Enthusiast

Tell me about it. I have 2 babies in here that can't settle down very well. but i cant blame one of the them because he has a terrible bruise on his head and breastfeeding all the time and then i have another 2 who wants to spit all the time that is enough to make anyone want to go home which thankfully I only have 2hours to go and counting.

Do you believe in the cycles of the moon. May 07 is a bluemoon month and it has been trying everywhere. I am betting things will start to calm down in a week or so. I can always tell when it is a few days before the full moon, just by the behavior of people. The full moon is on Thursday the 31st--things should calm after that.

I totally believe in the full moon that is when we are the crazy busy and that is when we get all the crankist babies and also if you can believe the weirdest names as well as first of babies and last names. usually the babies are eighter over 8lbs or under 6lbs. it really goes in cycles as well

Oh by the way the little girl in your picture is she your daughter or your niece, she looks alot like one of my daughters friend here in texas Baylee L

the little girl in your picture is she your daughter or your niece :D Thank you, she is my granddaughter, Brooklyn. She was 6 at the time and will be 9 next month. In that pic, I think she has many of my features, which would make her mom crazy! ;) I have 7 grandchildren now, Scott 9, Angel 5, Taylor 9, Harley 3, Brooklyn 8, Colin 7, and the little guy, Ethin 7 months. All beautiful!!!

I work in a doctor's office and I can tell the full moon is almost here just by the behavior of the patients. I then look at the calendar so see when the full moon appears and I am always correct.

Brooklyn is beutiful, My daughter is 7 will be 8 in Aug and we probly wont have any more because im 36 and I think that is too old for me to have another at this point, but if it happens then God will give me what he wants us to have. But yes right now i think that the soon to be full moon is affecting my husband as far as the "Dirty Laundry " goes. Along with what happens with the Ladies in Labor and Delivery..

Yah!! :lol: relief is here

I get this in insurance business too. There are times when just everybody is calling about the smallest things. Not so much on my end, but the homeowners dept. goes crazy....especially when weather is bad it appears that people are home and bored and have taken to either reading their insurance policies or are grousing about the increase in the premium. If I were home the last thing I'd do would be to read my insurance policy ;)

All my kids were born on a full moon lol. So everytime i would go have an bb there was like 4-5 other moms having a bb. we are a small town so not alot babies in a given day, but when its a full moon the place is full.

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice. Additionally, getting the right amount of protein for my body weight helped significantly in my body's healing process ... along with supplementing with enough of all the vitamins and minerals ... especially Zinc and Magnesium. I went from 70kg to 82kg in a year. Protein with each meal 3 times daily, especially eggs at breakfast made the difference. I'm not sure whether iodine was a problem for me, but I can tolerate iodine no problem now. I'm off Dapsone and feel great. Not a sign of an itch. So there is hope. I'm not advocating for the use of Dapsone, but it can bring a huge amount of relief despite it's effect on red blood cells. The itch is so distracting and debilitating. I tried many times to get off it, it wasn't until I implemented the changes above and was consistent that I got off it. Dermatitis Herpetiformis is horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

      Thank you so very much Scott.  Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful.  If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.
