Healing the Child Within Community Group
This is a safe haven for victims of childhood abuse and their loved ones to share stories, sympathies, and tips for healing. Whether verbal, physical, or sexual in nature, the effects of childhood abuse can be permanently scarring. Together, though, we can find strength and solace in each other.
Welcome and welcome and welcome again! Please feel free to use this space to introduce yourself and share anything fun, funny or inspirational about yourself. The only thing that I ask is that since we are all for the most part familiar with and sympathetic to the phenomenon of "triggering", please forwarn other members of possible triggers if you feel the need to vent and/or use graphic descriptions in your story.
I myself am a 24-yr-old housewife and stay-at-home-mom of one infant son. I am a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. I am also a damn good cook, when I am not setting my kitchen on fire. :-) I am involved in several local live theatre groups, and write horrendously egocentric poetry. My friends call me Dani.
Your turn.

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...
