How to know your girl has lost interest in the relationship Posted: 22 Jan 2022 01:00 AM PST If your babe does the things listed here, chances are that she's no longer interested in being with you.Not all relationships will end well. Its sad but its the truth. Lovers who were all over each other at some point of the relationship have been known to fall so badly out of love to the point that a breakup becomes theBut breakups do not happen abruptly. They are often preceded by a partner's emotional withdrawal. So if you have a girlfriend and you ever her exhibiting the signs listed below, chances are that she has fallen out of love with you and is no longer interested in the relationship. 1. She'll no longer mummy you When your girlfriend stops loving you, her caring and inquisitive nature dies off; she no longer bothers about what goes on in your life, she doesn't bother and she hardly cares whether or not you've eaten. Of course we all know that being asked by your girl if you've eaten is one of the topmost ways she shows her love to you. 2. She no longer tries When a woman stops loving you, she wouldn't have the desire to do special things for you, or anything for that matter. She wouldn't treat you nice, she wouldn't make you feel loved, treasured, valued or respected and she just wouldn't care whether you are hurt or not. 3.

But right now, she displays zero interest on who you're texting or meeting. 5. The communication suffers From almost novel-like replies to one liners and now down to one-word responses – that's how communication dwindles till it becomes inexistent between you and a girl who has fallen out of love with you. Phone calls also become fewer and shorter and there are even more excuses why she can no longer chatter happily with you for so long as she once used to. |
Here's everything you need to know about lightning crotch pain Posted: 22 Jan 2022 12:30 AM PST As if giving birth wasn't hard enough, some women experience a sudden, intense pain in their crotch before and during labor called "lightning crotch."While the good news is that you're quickly nearing your delivery date, the bad news is it may be very frequent before your delivery date.In this blog post, we will discuss everything you need to know about lightning crotch pain: what causes it, what effects it has on the mother and baby, and how to prevent it from happening. First of all, what is lightning crotch pain? Lightning crotch is a sudden, intense pain that occurs in the crotch area during labor. It is caused by the baby's head putting pressure on the nerves and blood vessels around the vagina. Lightning crotch can be very painful and uncomfortable for the mother, and it can also cause problems for the baby. There are several causes of lightning crotch pain. They include: the baby's head putting pressure on the nerves and blood vessels around the vagina, pressure on the perineum from the baby's head or body, tearing of the perineum, and an episiotomy. All of these causes can result in pain, swelling, and bruising in the crotch area. Lightning crotch can also cause problems for the baby; it can lead to a decrease in the baby's heart rate, decreased oxygen levels, and even premature delivery. Fortunately, there are several ways to prevent lightning crotch pain from occurring. Some of them include : 1. Practicing perineal massage during pregnancy: A perineal massage, especially during pregnancy can help dilute lightning crotch pains by stretching the tissues and muscles around the vagina. 2. Avoiding prolonged labor: If possible, try to avoid having a long labor. This will help reduce the chances of the baby's head putting pressure on the nerves and blood vessels around the vagina. 3. Avoiding an episiotomy: If possible, try to avoid having an episiotomy. This will help reduce the chances of tearing the perineum. An episiotomy is a surgical incision made in the perineum to enlarge the vaginal opening. 4. Practicing Kegel exercises: Kegel exercises can help strengthen the muscles around the vagina and may help reduce the risk of lightning crotch pain. To perform a Kegel exercise, tighten your pelvic floor muscles and hold for five seconds. Then relax for five seconds. Repeat this exercise ten times. |
Stop putting bottles of water in your car to avoid these dangers Posted: 22 Jan 2022 12:00 AM PST It's a hot summer day and you're out running errands. You stop by the grocery store, then the bank, and finally to your car.You get in, turn on the AC, and reach for a cold bottle of water from the cooler you packed earlier that morning. As you unscrew the cap and take a sip, you hear a loud pop! You look down to see that your bottle of water has exploded all over the seat and floorboard. What do you do?Leaving a bottle of water in your car can be dangerous for a few reasons, and we shall discuss them one after another in this article. 1. Heat can cause the water to explode. When water reaches its boiling point, it expands and turns into steam. If there's not enough room for the steam to expand, it will force the cap off the bottle and burst it open. This is what causes water bottles to explode in cars. The hotter it is outside, the more likely it is that your bottle of water will explode. In order to avoid this, always make sure there's plenty of room for the steam to escape if the water reaches its boiling point. Don't leave your water bottle in direct sunlight, and make sure the AC is on if you're going to be driving in hot weather. 2. The sun can heat the water to dangerous levels. The inside of a car can get extremely hot, especially during the summer. If you leave a bottle of water in the car, the sun will heat it up to potentially dangerous levels. The water could reach temperatures high enough to cause burns and blisters. 3. Drinking bottled water left in the car can cause health problems. When water sits in a car for an extended period of time, it can become contaminated with bacteria. This bacteria can cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea if ingested. It's best not to take any chances and just throw away any bottles of water that have been left in the car. What's more, biphenyl A levels in water bottles can become dangerous when the temperature rises to a certain point. BPA is a chemical that has been linked to health problems such as cancer and reproductive issues. 4. It can set the car seat on fire If you leave your bottle of water in the car, the sun's rays can heat it up to the point where it catches on fire. This is known as solar ignition. A magnifying glass will do the same thing. If you have children that keep toys in the car, that could potentially start a fire, so it's best to move them out of the car when you're not using them. If the bottle of water is plastic and contains electrolytes, it can create a spark when coming into contact with metal. If this spark comes into contact with something flammable in the car (like upholstery or carpet), it could set the seat on fire. So, if you're going to be driving in the summer, it's best to leave your water bottles at home. If you do need to bring them with you, make sure they're in a cooler and out of the sun. |

Should you brush your teeth before or after breakfast? Here is he answer Posted: 21 Jan 2022 11:00 PM PST Should I brush my teeth before or after breakfast? This is a question that people often ask themselves.But unfortunately, most people are already used to brushing their teeth at a particular time of the day, and they don't want to know what isn't healthy for them.Some people say that brushing your teeth first thing in the morning is best since you'll have less chance of tooth staining from food and drinks later on during the day. Others say it doesn't really matter when you do it as long as you do it at least twice a day. But what do experts say about when you should brush your teeth? Why brushing before breakfast may be better? When you sleep, the bacteria in your mouth releases acid that can damage the enamel of your teeth. Brushing after you wake up eliminates that morning breath and protects your enamel from any acid in your food. Brushing before breakfast is also known to jumpstart your saliva production, and saliva helps you break down food. According to experts, the best time to brush your teeth is an hour after eating breakfast, especially after eating acidic foods. If you brush immediately after having breakfast, you'll be covering your teeth with remnants of acidic food and weakening your enamel. Some of the worst foods for your enamel include orange juice pastries and bread. Waiting sometime after breakfast before brushing is the best way to protect your enamel. In addition, you can chew sugar-free gum or drink water after eating to clean your teeth before you brush. When brushing your teeth, add a small amount of toothpaste (you don't need to press the entire tube) and ensure you brush your teeth at an angle so you can reach difficult spots. Brush thoroughly for two minutes or more and spit out any leftovers. |
