Does anyone have suggestions for low tox laundry detergent that actually works. I’ve tried a ton of brands now and they all suck. I’m ok it not being fully non toxic as I have kids, a hard working/sweaty husband and a special needs pet that pees on everything. I need something that will break down urine (something with enzymes) and strong enough to break down oils/sweat, but also fragrance free and gentle because we all have skin conditions like eczema or sensitive skin.

POSITIVE ADVICE/ANSWERS ONLY PLEASE! I have vm and pppd and over the last year my symptoms have gotten so much better. They’re minimal, get worse around period time. My dizziness is workable, my migraines have gotten so much better and overall I would say I have been in “remission”. I’ve learned to live with what I have and found happiness again. Well, I’m 9 weeks pregnant and am in the first trimester trenches and my symptoms have slightly come back (due to lack of eating from vomiting so much). I have to have a c-section in march and I’m so scared that the rush of hormonal changes are going to make every symptom come back full force (I believe my vm is hormonal) and I am so scared my post partum will make the worse year of my life come back WHILE caring for a newborn and 2 children. Please any success with pregnancy/postpartum stories I NEED to hear them.

This will be my 3rd kid but I genuinely can’t remember how long this lasted. My nausea is so bad, everything is making me gag. I can barely eat, and I swear I have no energy. Literally being doing NOTHING for 2 weeks now the nausea is so bad. I stand up and it makes me want to puke. And I have phantom smoke smells constantly that won’t go away so it makes it worse.

Has anyone tried there brand? Are they truly non toxic? Thoughts? I don’t see much info on them but the pricing is good and the reviews they do have are good

My whole life I’ve been told I have terrible luck (and I do). I can try to stay positive and I swear it’s ALWAYS SOMETHING. I grew up having a pretty terrible life, parents were drugs addicts, a lot of physical and emotional/sexual abuse, mom got sober married a terrible person, got kicked out as a kid and had to do it alone pretty much. Did drugs. Got in an abusive relationship, had my daughter, and boom… I didn’t want any of this anymore, so I left. And I changed. And I started to have the life I always wanted, worked really hard, did what I needed to do to better myself life. Found the love of my life and have our own space. He has amazing luck, always something good going for him, but then there’s me. I worked so hard for this life change yet there’s still always something. Car issues, family problems, went to a restaurant yesterday and the person cleaning a table next to me slung the food on my feet. I laugh and brush it off. Small things right? But like it’s something almost every day, sometimes small like this and a lot of the time big issues. I’ve gone from positive and bubbly to so drained and hardly hanging on… how do I fix my luck? Have I done something to cause it? Is this karma for something ? Even when I was positive it’s always been something.

And I don’t mean work from home job, side hustles to make extra money? What are some things you do to make some extra money?

When I was working, I’d get ready, do my hair and makeup and people would tell me I was always so put together or I looked nice. Now I’ve gained a ton of weight and dress like Adam Sandler. I do my hair most days, but that is it really. Just blow out my hair. I feel like a hot mess. I’ve been a sahm for 3 years now and over time I’ve slowly stopped getting ready and taking care of myself. I used to get my lashes done, my nails done, spray tans, I worked out and I’d run errands in full makeup. What the fuck happened? And how do I get the old me back? I just feel fat and tired and run down now. I have no energy or motivation, I’m even angry and negative now

Please don’t mention vinegar or essential oils lol. I need something to break down body oils/odors and a scent booster for my husbands work laundry. Our detergent works to clean but DOES NOT help with the pits area. We use vinegar and essential oils already and that’s shit does not work at all
