Chamomilla for Teething? _{Page 12 of 19}

Assuming its NOT a bug bite....

Never had it before.
It's in the fold of my arm on the right side of the right arm.

It seems to flare up the most in the mid-late afternoon.

It's better in the morning...for a few hours.

I'm looking at it now and it does appear to be spreading....bug bites don't do that lol....
There's the main large bump, then three smaller bumps over it and some even smaller above those trailing down towards my hand.

What else....
I've got some pimples on my forehead, they're deep and sore, like the ones I would always get when I ate dairy. Also getting some in my ear canals. Both ears :-/
I thought possibly that ovulation occurred the other day...interestingly enough, the morning following my lac Eq dose.
I've felt it once before--a very intense cramp on one side of pelvis. Made me limp on corresponding leg for like half an hour. The cramp starts around the top of my pelvis and grows all the way down to pubic bone and then holds like a charley horse, then subsides and then the area right above pubic bone feels puffy for a few minutes. This is exactly how it felt when my son was conceived.

Yesterday after I cried I felt refreshed and free like a dam had broken free. I felt light and I had energy. Lots. I cleaned the house, changed bedsheets, did dishes, made dinner, I even felt so good that i turned on some old music and rocked out while doing the work.
I slept ok just not enough. Son woke up at 7:30am. Don't know why he does this, he's obviously still very tired.
Another tooth is working its way through. I had to give him Motrin again yesterday.
He's been OK as far as mood. He's been taking three naps a day and falling asleep on my lap with minimal coaxing at least once a day, which is awesome. He's been very cuddly with both of us for the last week or so, too.

That's about it I think.
By the way I never had coffee. I just didn't feel like going to the trouble of making it.

Ok. I'll just keep you updated as things go.

So I was reading the proving notes for the Wild Horse remedy the other night.
I don't know if you took the time to read it... I find it really interesting that all of her provers were aware of the substance they were proving. I could be wrong, but doesn't it seem prudent to have a few of your subjects unaware of what it is? It seems like too many preconceived ideas can intrude onto the information if everyone is aware. And I don't know what Tarot Cards have to do with a remedy :-/ I hate when people get overly-spiritual about this stuff.

So yesterday was another pretty good day. The daytime lethargy isn't as overpowering, and I seem to have a good amount of motivation and energy through the day. Still feel tired, as though I am not getting enough sleep. I'm extremely tired first thing in the morning and can barely open my eyes at first.

The red bump on my arm seems to be going down. it didn't itch much all day yesterday until about 2AM and again around 8 when I woke up. It seems like heat makes it worse. But all in all it is not swelling up any more. It doesn't look quite so angry.

As far as the drug issue, the communication happened (through writing mostly) and feelings were resolved. Everything back to good. So that helps.

I find it interesting that after I bawled my eyes out the other day I felt so much better, physically and mentally. When I was first taking Lac Equinum I experienced a lot of emotional upheaval and past issues/memories coming up and working through them in my mind. Things that I had repressed etc. So that seems to be an interesting correlation possibly.

Also I have barely been taking any Vitamin C, basically not enough to be of any influence...no more than say, eating a handful of cherries or something would be. And I am not having much constipation issues.

Baby has been waking up consistently around 7:30-8 AM for the whole week. And consistently been pretty restless in his sleep during the night. In the last two days I have really been noticing that as I am getting him down to sleep he does not much like to lay (in my arms) on his left side, which is currently the side that a tooth is coming up on. So, not wanting to lay on painful side...?

He has one finger in his mouth a lot on that side as well, chewing on it.
His mood is pretty stable, he's a happy kid, and very explorative on his own, but always comes back to me and wants to cuddle frequently.

Towards the end of the day he's pretty clingy and cries a lot. He acts 'wound up/hyper' but is actually very tired. Motrin(ibuprofen) really helps him a lot, so I'm assuming the 'hyper' stuff is his teething being more active at night.

One thing I've noticed that's kind of funny-- this week he has been playing with his feet a lot when I lay him down to change his diaper, and he has been trying to grab my arm between both of his feet. (it's pretty cute) But he hasn't done this since he was maybe 5-6 months old.

"allowing things to settle.."
--yes I know. I am just basically 'journaling'...for one so I don't forget things, and two, so you can see the progression.


guiding symptoms for motrin--
he gets very hyper/agitated/restless. he doesnt want to sit still, he wants to be constantly moving and wants to be entertained. held but not held...
he is very talkative and quickly goes from happy sounds to crying/whining/complaining. his vibes are just very agitated. hands are in/around his mouth a lot. he does this thing with his hand...he puts the back of his hand up to his open mouth and makes a loud sound while flopping his hand on and off his mouth(to be funny but also it's a sign to me that he is uncomfortable/wants something).
I know he's tired but he won't go to sleep... he squirms, stretches, arches his back, flops around, rubs his face(cause he's tired) pretty agressively, but is not coaxable.
the motrin makes him be calm and he goes to sleep very quickly after taking it. and seems to sleep pretty soundly too.

(Tarot Cards are witchcraft/sorcery, though. )

lol
okay.

I got the Lyc and Calc Carb LM1's in the mail today.

how do I measure out the granules for a small dose...equivalent to two pellets? should I just eyeball it?

Hi John...I've been keeping notes over the last week and I'd like to show you what's been going on.

As you'll see there's been a pretty consistent pattern with the Lac Equinum. I received the 'Wild Horse' Remedy on Monday evening (7/11) and took a dose. So I've been tracking that progress as well.

I'd like to give it another day or two to settle, as I am feeling slightly better today..also this last week has been kind of crazy for me. It was my birthday and my family came into town and we've been very social so I'm pretty wiped out/exhausted.

So here's my notes...

7/2/16

Lac Equinum 30c

Dosed at 10pm

100mls water 4 drops succussed 4 times

Stirred heavily and 1TBSP mixed into 100mls of water

1tbsp dose of second glass.

---slept pretty ok. Baby didn't wake up crying...(also gave him Motrin around 8-9 pm tho)

Morning I feel pretty alert/motivated/happy. No headache or tension. Then I had a crampy pain on right side of pelvis. (Ovulating?!?)



Next few days have been typical. Tired in daytime more awake at night.

My mind is not very sharp...I feel very suppressed. Don't know what to say a lot...can't find words....can't express emotions as if I don't have them but it's more like I know I have them but I am not feeling them.



7/10/16

Have been feeling extremely tired. Today was the church picnic. At church when talking with people I feel like my brain has been "cutting out" and I lose a few seconds of the conversation. When I come back I am not sure what's going on in the convo or kind of like I missed something. Also forgetting entire thoughts or the ability to relay them into speech. The words just won't come out of my mouth.

Sleep has been consistently poor all week. Interrupted mostly. By the baby. He wakes up and sits up in bed and squirms around/repositions a bunch. He's been extremely cuddly/needy while sleeping. So it's difficult for me to get comfortable. I feel like I need more sleep when he wakes up around 7:30-8 every morning. I'm so tired and my eyes burn.



(He has been needing a nap around 10-11am and then again around 4-5pm and then bedtime around 9-10pm. After waking up from his first nap he is pretty much grumpy ish for the rest of the day and sometimes the second nap doesn't really happen. He's been developing a diaper rash again it seems to be irritating him.)





7/11/16

allergies kind of kicked in again and bad tension headache. With dulled mentals.

Have been having slight cramps....ish. Very tired. Baby woke me up at 8.



Wild Horse Remedy came in the mail.



---WILD HORSE C4 TRITURATION ---



Dose:

9:00pm --4 granules dissolved in 4oz water--stirred thoroughly and -1 tsp of this taken.



First Observations:

Mouth feels very dry. Dryness is moving down my throat a bit.

I think I'm way more tired all the sudden. Few minutes after taking.

Just ate some soup and it was SOOO refreshing/soothing on my stomach. Delicious.



7/12/16

Slept much better. There was just as much interruption by the baby, but what sleep I did get was more refreshing. It wasn't hard to wake up in the morning. Baby slept till 9:20!!

When I first woke up I had to pee (as usual) but it was so much and free flowing. Not what it's been lately.

I felt pretty motivated/energetic first thing in AM but after a few hours I felt more tired/bla again.

Later in Afternoon I'm having a very long lasting pelvic cramp on the left side. It's lasting over an hour. (I hope I'm not pregnant!!!!)

Baby's rash is going away.



7/13/16

Didn't sleep great. Neither did baby. His teething is driving him crazy I think.

I am very tired/bla all day. Just want to be so lazy and sleep. Have the same heavy/full feeling in my head/brain just all day. I've been yawning a lot.

No more cramps today.



Baby woke up around 8 and crawled around on the bed a little and then flopped back down across my legs and slept for another hour.

He was very tired when he woke up and was acting tired/lethargic all morning. It was difficult to get him to nap ...finally got him to sleep at 1:30pm and he slept for an hour.



Evening while cooking dinner I'm noticing significant heel pain when standing. Bad like when I used to work a lot and when I was pregnant. Legs from hips down are just so sore and aching.

Baby slept not super great. He is still getting up frequently during the night and sitting up and then flopping down on me kind of violently. Our heads have collided a few times pretty hard.
he really wants to cuddle and be cuddled.

7/14/16

Was able to sleep in till 9-9:20 ish again.
Had very strange vivid dreams about husband wanting to take a vacation to Maui. He was talking about getting on a plane "tomorrow morning" and just going.
I was very concerned about this spontaneity because of lack of funds, or other plans regarding our responsibilities at home. The trip did not end up happening because husband slept in too late.

Morning I felt OK. Still kind of dull/bla/tired. Fuzzy brain. I feel much better when I am moving around and doing something. And when/after taking a shower. This is typical for me.

I'm seeing a few reoccurrences of old symptoms, and slight aggravations of currents...maybe. This daytime tiredness/nighttime energy has just been extended to all the time tiredness...Whatever it's doing it's extremely gentle and subtle.

I'm thinking of trying the 200c "wild horse", but not sure if I should continue to wait on this 30C dose...


Go ahead and let me know your thoughts!!

Gotcha. I was kind of thinking the same. (maybe proving, but maybe bringing up past stuff)

I'll get back to you in a couple days. Thanks.

Here's what's been happening.
I'm seeing a few more things coming up from past/currents. But I'm also getting really tired of this constant bla feeling. It's like I'm here but I'm not.

7/14/16
Slept in till 9:20 again yay. Was sorta bla when I got up but felt much better after taking a shower. I all the sudden had a bunch of energy and wanted to go outside and do stuff. I did a bunch of laundry and then Ended up going for a walk down to the park. I felt like I connected with my dad again in a way I have felt had been severed over the last couple years.
I made a good dinner... felt very positive all evening.
Baby has been signing for milk a lot today---he's being very communicative with signs and motions. He started pointing to things he wants to see. He's been nursing more frequently--during the day, and altogether. (Growth spurt?)

7/15/16
Did not sleep very well. Baby is restless and wakes up crying if my arm is not around him.
He woke up at 8:30 but still seemed sleepy. It was very difficult to wake up. I'm dragging all day. Felt slightly less tired after a shower, but still need a nap.
Gagging thing is happening a lot today but it's slightly different.
Baby went down for first nap at 1:30ish.

I still feel the strong urge to get out of the house and go do something or go somewhere. Not restless, but just want to go-- not waste the day.

I used to feel this when I was younger, in the summer a lot....and on weekends when we lived at in laws. Ever since I've been a mother I've almost been afraid to leave the house. It's nice to have that desire to 'go' back. Just wish I wasn't so tired!!

7/16/16
Today was hard. I did not get enough sleep. I was going to take a nap but didn't work out because the baby only slept for like a half hour.
My brain was so dull and foggy and I was just heavy and lethargic -bla.
The gal who was going to lease my horse backed out on me and I have to find someone new. I felt very depressed about this and let down. But at the same time I see the providence in the timing of it and seeing her true colors and motives. (She just wanted to get boarding money.) I went to my sisters house for a few hours in the day and I felt very restricted and uncomfortable. When I got back home I felt relief and almost a burst of energy. Freedom in my own space.

7/17/16
I think I slept better --I feel better. Not so lethargic. A little bit more clear-headed. Still kind of bla, but I think it is the horse-leasing issue and the stress weighing on me. I'm kind of depressed I cannot spend any time with him. Looking at possibly selling. :(
I don't feel such a strong urge to "go out" and travel. I feel just at peace with whatever we decide to do. Stay home, or go out. No hinderance either way.
Last night I had a bad dream about being kidnapped by a crazy cult that had set up base camp at my grandparents farm. And my whole family was trapped there. I had to escape my enclosure and find/rescue everybody else.
There was a great focus of trying to find lost possessions that were stollen (clothing and kitchen tools mostly) and then we were stuck in the kitchen eating pastries... Weird.
Dreams of being stuck at my grandparents farm are a huge past issue for me.

Went to the lake with family--day started out overcast and a light cool breeze. It was making my eyes water, that with the brightness. (Normal for me) when the sun came out I felt like, "okay now the day is starting." The sun always makes me feel better.
A guy at the store deli ruined my mood because he failed to tell me the full ingredients of a dish when I asked, and it ended up having allergens in it, which I found out after I decided to order it. I gave it back. I was pretty grumpy/moody after that.
Very very tired late afternoon. Can't wait to be home.

7/18
Slept a lot better. So did baby. I think the day out really wore him out. He did not wake up as frequently. I slept hard in between his nursing. But woke up with a stiff back and a headache.
Headache is making me feel more tired than I really am. I can barely think. I don't even want to move. Any effort physical or mental is aggravating. If I could just relax every muscle and not think or talk I'd feel better. I would really like a long back rub. My head feels burny.

I had a cup of green tea this morning to try to help the ibuprofen/Tylenol kick in. Didn't work.
No I don't have nux v.

I am still of the conviction that this "maintaining factor" has got to be the genetic mutation issue.
Unless there is another food allergy/intolerance I am unaware of,.....
My reaction to remedies is always the same, yet my diets and external/cosmetic/supplemental habits are inconsistent at best.
