Does anyone notice their symptoms, especially pain getting worse around the full moon?

Nope. A few years ago, I matched my journals with moon phases and there were no correlating patterns.

With F, there are NO patterns. There is no control. You might think there are, but give it a minute; everything is going to change again. .

But, maybe you're more sensitive than I am.

Even before I was diagnosed with Fibro, I had problems sleeping when there was a full moon. I've been told by other people who have fibro that they seem to experience more problems with sleep at this time, but who knows??????

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
