It’s also why they come out all cone headed after vaginal delivery

Honestly the big barrier for me in making eco bricks is cleaning the flimsy plastic that gets stuffed in. Outer wrapping from the toilet paper, that’s fine, but a lot of the garbage in my home would be from chip bags or baby food pouches.

Reply to comment by Sea-Mango in Study finds brain changes associated with ADHD remission. As the brains of those with ADHD mature, some individuals may repetitively engage in strategies that compensate for symptoms. These repetitive behaviors may result in the brain changes seen in those who went into remission. by Wagamaga
We all respond differently to different meds, if you try ritalin/ritalin types and they don’t work then def give something else a go too. I started on addy (and it works wonderfully) but it isn’t recommended for breastfeeding so I tried ritalin for a while. Did nothing for me. Back to adderall I went, and just adjusted my breastfeeding schedule.

This is something OP’s wife can do when she’s having low pain days! Search the local flyers, make a meal plan based on what’s on sale. I have experience being the pain wife and feeling useless but planning is possible and way more helpful than people realize.

One point shy of diagnosis at that point, but has anything gotten worse? It might be worth a reassessment

Not that easy to keep if unpredictable pain means she’s got unreliable attendance :/

Yup! It’s depressing and the only way to keep living is to focus on the good, but that doesn’t help you with the doctor. I found myself downplaying my pain at the doctor (well, and I super dosed my pain meds to be able to function at the appointment) so I started keeping a pain diary. It is the most depressing and bleak shit I’ve ever done, but it got my doctor to take me seriously and look further into it.

“Interesting” is a strange way to spell “horrifying”
