I got a store brand. All the tests I did came up a grey color. Returned the box and got a name brand. Same result. What gives? Specimen was about an hour old if that makes a difference. Am I supposed to be going by the shade but not specifically the color?
We are planning a visit to the vintage location for an upcoming anniversary. I have looked at the menu and honestly want to try everything (especially every appetizer). Obviously, we can't do that, and this level of dining is really only a special occasion thing for us, so I want to make it count. For those who have been, what are some stand-out dishes?
I have a 14 year old daughter. She is a really good kid and pretty trustworthy, but is rebelling against all things "surveillance state." We are having a lot of conflict over location tracking. She likes to walk around the neighborhood and go out with friends, and I want to be able to see where she is if I can't get ahold of her. Are there any apps that can give location data on a more emergency basis? Or maybe that would notify her if I check her location so she knows she is not being unreasonably tracked? Some sort of middle ground where I can be comfortable and she doesn't feel suffocated? She has an iPhone, but everything else in the family is android.
So this is not specific to autism, but I don't know where else to ask. My 11 year old wears diapers at night, but we are trying to transition to just underwear. If he needs to go to the bathroom at night, he calls me to help him. The problem I am having is that whenever he wakes up at night he is erect. He sits to pee, so this has resulted in a lot of messes. I can't get him to push it down into the toilet (he will, but then won't pee as long as he is touching it). I also have trouble getting him to stand and aim (more of the not peeing if he is touching it). Is there some sort of method or even product that can direct things where they need to go that is simple enough to do when it's 3 am and I am delirious?
Has anyone ever attempted to use over the counter scar creams to reduce the appearance of lip scars? If so, was it successful? How long of continued use before you saw a difference?
When I used to wear a bra, I would go ages between washes (basically until it started to get funky). I have switched to wearing tank tops under my shirt and no bra. It feels weird to not wash them everyday like I do my shirts though. Consequently, I have to have a ton of tank tops. For those of you in a similar situation, are you washing your tanks everyday or rewearing them?
I want to put some faux beams up, but I want them to be smooth and painted. All the tutorials I'm seeing for rigid foam beams are more of a rustic wood look. Has anyone ever had success doing a smoother painted look? (Original plan was to do MDF but I was informed that was too heavy).
I am going to China this summer. Food is hard for me there, but would be so much easier if I could have a few tablespoons of soy sauce at a time. I still would not touch dumplings and noodles, but it would open up a lot of other culinary options. Has anyone ever successfully increased tolerance for soy sauce over time? Like started with a small amount and built up, maybe in conjunction with gluten ease pills? If so, what was the protocol you used?
Info if needed: I have been GF for 14 years. Symptom is stomach aches. No diarrhea or anything like that.
