Really miss the vlogs in the NY apartments (like the second and third apartments to be specific haha) where you would just take the camera around to the grocery store, cook dinner with Ryan, do a skincare routine, do a shopping haul, run errands in the city etc. the OG vlogs 🤗
Same.
But they're so much happier in Texas although the content is not the same.
Ya for sure! Not even comparing it to the Texas content just saying :) being nostalgic haha :)
I admire how positive you stay when you are sick ❤️❤️
I had a UTI turn into a near death kidney infection within 24 hours. They’re horrible. I did take a bath not knowing I had one and that was the moment it accelerated and I had to be rushed to the ER, take care of yourselves ladies! It definitely should be a topic talked about more because I feel like women are embarrassed to talk about them or anything to do with lady problems.
So scary! I feel like they come on so quickly and get worse by the minute
My Mom is a nurse and taught me COTTON panties only… and also get a bidet…keep,oregano oil and echinacea on hand…UTI’s progress quickly and can cause severe kidney damage if it goes untreated.
Definitely agree with trying D-Mannose! They even make some with cranberry added. Hope you feel better!!
Love your vlogs, being here since the very beginning and even though I love the fashion content, I'm all for the house and renovation vlogs! ❤🌹
Also def tell your doctor about your reaction, there are a few different antibiotics that can be used and you might be allergic/sensitive to this one!
Yes, good advice.
Aww you and Ryan are just a PRECIOUS thing 😍🥰❤️❤️❤️
I suffered for soooo many years with UTIs, the only thing that really helped was drinking a little bit of water with half a teaspoon of baking soda. It really really help, you just need to wait a few minutes after drinking without go to the bathroom.
Half of teaspoon in the morning (or when you are feeling it burn) and half a teaspoon before you go to sleep. And don't forget to use some probiotics with antibiotics!!!
Hope you're feeling better, love from Italy ❤️
UTI remedies that helped me: cranberry tea and oregano oil.
Yes cranberry supplements help a lot! Also for nausea the best thing for me is Coke
For my clean outs I typically ask myself if I would buy it again today. If the answer is yes, then I keep!
So sorry to hear that you've been feeling so sick from the meds. As someone who has suffered from regular UTIs, my best recommendation is just taking one day, laying in bed and sleeping it off. You can also take pain medication to help you fall asleep. My doctor told me not to drink too much water after taking the antibiotics so I don't flush out the meds too quickly. Anything cranberry is super helpful. The antibiotics are effective but the side effects are terrible. Hope you feel better soon x
PS. Happy Birthday to baby girl Stella
Hey girl, I've been prone to UTIs and kidney infections since age four. I stopped taking antibiotics years ago, I'm 25 now. Cranberry is the best thing I get now, cranberry juice or powder sachets over the counter you just add water!
I love this so much and I love videos like this! I love all your content and happy Tuesday ashley! I hope that you are having a great day
Love that cropped topped with the skirt!
Yesss!
It looked so pretty on her, but I couldn't pull it off.
Where is the knitted top from?
Zara!
Thank you ♥️♥️
I always use a heating pad!! Helps so much ❤️ also cranberry juice 🤗
Awe I loved your sweet little discussion about UTIs🥰 bless your sweet heart. I hope you feel better. You poor thing.
My experience with UTI is that I first had a bladder infection. It got worse because I didn't do anything about it. I was unable to walk for a week due to the UTI and lost 10 pounds. My biggest lesson is that I always got a bladder infection after sex. This is because semen enters your urethra. So after sex to go to the toilet to pee and it never happened to me.
Taking d mannose after sex, as well as urinating helped me prevent them.
Yeah for the home series!!! :D
Hope you're feeling better 💕
Yes for home series!
Happy Birthday Stells! 💖
Sorry you weren't feeling well! Still love these formats of videos from you, and can't wait for more house content!!
Hi Ashley, I have several UTI per year. I use "heat" to relieve the pain a hot-water-bag (don't know the right word in english) or heat belt ad the thermacare. Obviously, I take the antibiotics as prescribed by my GP. Last time I got to late to my doctor and had an UTI and a kidney infetion (pyelonephritis). It was really dangerous for me as i have only one kidney since my birth. It is always essential to take the good amount of antibiotics. To prevent the UTI you must drink a lot of water as well as cranberry juice, that can help to prevent one. Hope my advice can help some of you. Take care, Carole
Yes! I put on a heating pad and it was magical
I’m so sorry that happened to you. It must have been scary. 😩
Ashley too funny 😂 you spent time in the first section talking yourself IN to keeping the items… I personally love the home stuff 💜💜, the vlogs with you and hubby, my adopted girl Stella gives me life …💜💜💜..Stella was like really, you give it to me and then snatch back.. Ashley do you eat when taking the antibiotics ?
Happy Birthday, Stella! I'm not a doctor and don't know all the specifics of what you're feeling but UTI's can sometimes be a symptom of kidney stones so perhaps you should go see a urologist. Hope you feel better.
Hey! You don't ask, but just wanted to share something that my dad (who is what you guys call a board certified MD in my country) told me as soon as I had my first UTI. He always makes me try to drink a lot of fresh squeezed orange juice and vitamin C tablets, before using antibiotics for UTI (I'm super sensible to antibiotics) the idea is to make your urine as acid as possible so you can kill and flush the bacterias that's making u sick. My love to Stella! (Not a English native so please excuse my poor grammar)
Interesting! Haven’t heard of vit C for a UTI! I’ll try it next time (hopefully there isn’t a next time though)
Wooow 37 minutes with my favorite beauty queen 👑 I can watch you and listen for hours and that never get bored I adore you and admire you wonderful woman you always transmit positive energy to me after each of your videos I feel better,THANK YOU VERY MUCH Ash 🥰 a million likes for every your videos and I really don't understand people who can dislike this what's is wrong with them 🤔!Love and support from Serbia ❤🇷🇸
i‘ve had 10uti‘s in a year once, came back every tome after antibiotics. bicarbonate sodium/natron, mixes with a little water has saved me. haven‘t had any since. because its so severly alkali e it zakes the pain of peeing and i suspect the bacteria doesn‘t like the ph change in the bladder either. good luck. i know it‘s agony
Try Ciprofloxacin antibiotics instead. Lots of water, pure cranberry juice, heating pad for your lower back. Bactrim antibiotics are very hard on the female body. If they still make you nauseous lower your MG and take them for a longer period of time and eat before you take them. Hopefully you feel better soon!
i hope u will do 2 videos per week!!! 🤞🤞🤞😊
Happy belated birthday Stella! Also, hope you’re feeling better too! I’m sorry you had such a reaction to the antibiotics, that’s terrible 😞 if you ever have to take it again, tell your doctor about it. They should be able to prescribe zofran that you can take as needed for the nausea. Works like a charm!
Agree with a lot of the girl’s UTI recommendations here. In Australia we also have something called Ural which is a urinary alkaliser (mainly contains bicarbonate) which I always mix into my water if I have UTI. Also cranberry juice, lots of water, probiotics. And definitely see the doctor ASAP for antibiotics to prevent kidney infection. Definitely let your doctor know about the nausea as you may be intolerant to that antibiotic, however there are several other options. Hope you’re feeling better x
Thank you! I got some anti nausea meds and they were life changing
Definitely take probiotics while you take the antibiotics, I used to get uti’s all the time and had to take antibiotics and after a while it wrecked my stomach lining. Utis are awful, I keep cranberry pills as a back up if I ever start to feel one coming on. Drinking water consistently throughout the day helps prevent them too. Hope my past uti struggles help you ☺️💗
Loved the chatty vlog :)
Personally, the parts I'm least interesting in are about the business.
I have something called interstitial cystitis; essentially it feels like I have a UTI super frequently, super bad, and for seemingly no reason most of the time. One thing I do know triggers it is soda; luckily I’m an unsweet tea gal (don’t tell my fellow Floridians, they may oust me from the south), unluckily, tea can also trigger it sometimes. There isn’t a lot known about the condition, and a diagnosis takes quite a bit of time because the only way to know is to count out all other options. I’ve had a bladder pacemaker, physical therapy, and now live off of azo (I’m sure that’s horrible long term). All that said, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with a UTI! Extra strength azo helps a lot, but be prepared to feel as though your kidneys are being squeezed for 5-10 minutes. It’s incredibly painful as it works it’s way through your system, but provides relief of burning for half a day or so once that pain subsides.
If someone reading this gets UTI symptoms, but is proven not to actually have a UTI over and over again through labwork, I hope this helps in speaking to a physician and asking about it! Also, if anyone else has IC I’d love to know any tips you have; even after 19 years living with it, it’s not gotten any easier. ❤️
Thank yo so much for all of this info! I hope this helps someone else reading it who needs it ♥️♥️
I had a uti once and they proscribed doxycycline which I already had for anti malaria from when I went to Africa. Worked like a dream.
Hay I only want to tell you that I love your UA-cam video and I love watch your vlog etc. ❤️
One time I got an uti when I was in Canada visiting my BF and I almost die of pain cause same at first I wasn’t sure what it was, I was sick of it the entire time I visit him (3 weeks) it was so bad by the time I took the fly back I could barely walk and the pain in my lower back was horrible, got home my dads parter took me to the hospital and bum! Kidney infection! Had to take insane amount of antibiotics for a week that made me throw up but it work and I had just to take the bad w the good(hopefully curing the damn thing and yea it cured) so now as soon as I get the slightly feel I may have it I swallow cranberry juice as if it’s air. Also go to pee as soon as u feel like peeing. Some of my friends do pineapple juice. Gotta keep out the bug from getting cozy inside of us lol
Oh also I remembered the doc said no caffeine no sugary stuff while on the whole process
Oh my gosh you poor thing. That sounds like a NIGHTMARE
Very random, but where are Ryan’s sunglasses from?? They’re super cool!
Target!
Definitely try your hardest to finish the antibiotics. It’s common to start feeling better way before they’re finished, but that doesn’t mean all the bad bacteria has been killed off. Leaving it around when it’s been exposed to the antibiotics can lead to antibiotic resistance, meaning you’d have to go on even stronger antibiotics.
There aren’t any remedies for a UTI once it’s set in but there are some things you can do to reduce the likelihood of them recurring often. Drink lots of water, pee after sex, check if any products you use in that area are irritating.
Please if you get a UTI get antibiotics and don’t try to wait it out, it’s unlikely to resolve on its own and can travel up the urethra to the bladder and kidneys and cause some really bad complications and potentially sepsis, which is life-threatening.
I take gravel ginger when I am nauseated. I have many UTI’S unfortunately. I do find heat helps. Drink a lot of water… I also find cranberry juice helps. Please take the full-bottle it will come back. I like toast and applesauce when I am feeling lousy. Take care of yourself. They are awful😘
a UTI is the worst, I’ve gotten them on & off since I was a teenager, try different types of antibiotics, some do make u nauseous , also ask for antibiotics that target your UTI, instead of broad spectrum antibiotics, because those kill your good gut bugs also!🌸
I miss seeing you in the city.
Beet juice helps get rid of it so fast my mom taught me to juice the beets and drink it which is gross, but helpful. Also for the pain Azo For UTI helps with the symptoms sooooo much usually available at any CVS. Makes your pee orange, but helps with the discomfort.
I’ve never heard of this! Thanks for sharing
I am so sorry to hear you're not well... Unfortunately, I know how it feels... Take a lot of water, cranberry juice, D-mannose supplement is always handy to have, nettle tea helps also. NO vitamin C or sugary stuff (they make things worse).
But look, you'll take Stella to the vet asap, you should go see a doctor too, every bacteria that causes UTI responds to a different medicine.
Hope you'll get well soon.
Feedback for your 12 minute-mark portion of the video.... I loved the atmospheric intro with the clouds! thought to myself that it added this really nice aesthetic to your vlog. More of that cinematic element intermixed would be really great, although doesn't ultimately contribute to your beauty/lifestyle content, I think it really elevates your videos beyond alot of the other standard beauty/lifestyle vlogs that we are so saturated with here in the cyber world hahah
I love this. Thank you. And I fully agree
I’m gonna be honest, when I got a random UTI when traveling to visit my in-laws, I got some fresh pressed cranberry juice and diluted it with water and fresh pressed apple juice -- ya it wouldn’t subside from the miraculous cranberry juice. Honestly, I think the goal should just to get a ton of fluid in and as you said, flush out.
You gotta let go of the green polka dot dress, you wore it enough & just cherish the great memories w/ it🙃… oh gosh i remember that vacay trip when u were so sick - we definitely have to break the stigma 😏
😂😂
I think you could open a shop with all that clothes 😄
Taking probiotics half an hour before and after an antibiotic has always stopped the nausea for me.:)
This is a very late response. The last time two times I had a UTI. I didn’t use antibiotics at all.
I went to Whole Foods and bought two of the largest bottles of 100% pure cranberry juice. Which is foul on taste but within three days or however long it took me to finish them. The UTI was gone also I drink a gallon of water a day❤️❤️❤️
If you stop an antibiotic without finishing, the bacteria it was fighting could build a resistance to it.
Exactly! Luckily at least someone is thinking and commenting this.
My doctor said it was totally fine if it was making me sick
I hope you feel better
I have to stay in the bath when I have a UTI. They are awful.
Finish the antibiotics or it will come back.
Also this is weird & I prob sound crazy but you said Mexico and it reminded me, I get a UTI every single time I drank Tequila (whether I have intimate time with hubby or not)…. Were you drinking tequila?
And they have multiple different antibiotics that can treat UTIs - tell your doctor you are having nausea and they can try another antibiotic for you! It’s so important to clear it up or it will come back over and over
So strange! No I wasn’t drinking tequila
I love the home content...
For nausea get ginger candy or ginger pills works wonders! For UTI I got pyridium turns your pee orange but works great for the pain, burning, pissing razor blades feeling lol Also call your doctor they can change your antibiotic that's an extreme reaction it's good you stopped taking it. Hope you're feeling better now!
Drink cranberry juice every day ..or put dried cranberries I'm your oatmeal...as a precaution
Ashley, I fell sick like this after i take paracetamol... the nausea is so bad :( I think it's the liver that can't handle it
It’s so rough! And stays in your system for hours
Ginger water is great for nausea
A lot of cranberry juice or cranberries and tons of water help make it go away. It was a doctor’s advice. Also you might be allergic to the antibiotics. Let your doctor know so that you try different antibiotics! Get well soon!!
I got them! Thank you!
you should take gastroprotector with the antibiotic to prevent nausea :)
I finally got some zofran ♥️
I suffer from uti's what really helps me its the horsetail tea 🍵it's the best remedy
i love your back in texas
Me watching all your clothing 😍 And I totally agree how sad is to say goodbye to lovely pieces but the fit is awful
wasn´t stellás birthday a month ago or so? im confused lol a i going crazy?? for uti´s probiotics do wonders!! do you like kombucha?? hope you get to feel better soon!!
Nope! 7/7
Yes! I take 2 probiotics a day
Thank for answering! hope you are feeling much better now!
My sister lives in your neighborhood. AND she has a pool! Y'all should be friends!
Yes we should! Haha
so the sidewalks etc naturally files downs the nails, maybe since she is not exposed to concrete as much as before, slightly long nails started to bother her :(
I actually found what was wrong with her! She scraped her toe 😔😔 her hair was covering it up
@@ashbrooke oh no poor thing :(
Ginger tea is also great for nausea.
I have had chronic utis for probably about 5 years. 2-3 a year, but earlier this year I started taking uqora supplements and it has helped soooo much. I haven’t had one since 🤞🏻
Writing this down! Thank you
Do you guys not have Gravol in the US????
I got some Zofran
there's different kinds of antibiotics you can take for UTI's! Next time ask your doctor to prescribe you different ones that are less likely to make you nauseous.
D mannose and lots of water and tea, just constantly drinking
Aww...you should have someone read you select comments and completely avoid the negative ones...yikes, thats just torture 💔
Cranberry juice!!!
😻😻😻love you so much
Which song you played in the vlog.
Love you girl plz get a reusable water bottle ♻️
I have terrible IBS and I swear by heating pads & peppermint oil pills to help me with my stomach issues
The worst thing you can take for uti is antibiotics! You need 4grams sodium citrate 3 times a day for 2 days. This will change the pH of the urine so much, the bacteria won't be able to survive in there! The d-mannose is also helpful, it will cover the inside of the bladder so the bacteria won't be able to stick to it and they will be flushed out with the urine. I'm talking from experience. Had so many times uti, literally I was peeing BLOOD! and antibiotics just won't work after a while! It's so disgusting from doctors that they straight away prescribe antibiotics, causing so much other problems when there are other things too! Fkin hate them!! Every single time you have any type of sex go to pee after. YOU HAVE TO. Force it, run the tap, whatever helps but you have to flush out germs from the urinary tract. And don't forget to drink water. Once I had uti just because I was dehydrated.
Thank you! Lots of D mannose recs in the comment section
Get back to the doctor, maybe she can switch you to a less nauseating antibiotic. But do take the complete course. You can develop an antibiotic-resistant strain, if not, and have it all your life, I know someone who this happened to. UTIs can be really bad!
I switched antibiotics AND got zofran. Such a life saver
Tell your doc about your reaction, they can switch it for something else!
Ask the doctor to prescribe you some Zofran for nausea! Strong, effective and easy!
Got some! Magic pills
❤️
I would ask your doctor for a different antibiotic!
Hi Ashley you are so beautiful babe I hope you Ryan and stella are well
Young Living essential oils work great for me. UTI’s are awful. Hope you feel better.
Just 3 pounds overweight… shhh she can hear you 😅
My spaniel who is a caramel version of Stella is on a gastrointestinal type dog food and that has really kept her weight down as it is low fat. And she’s 13 so that’s quite the achievement!
I also really minimise her other snacks
They just love food!
I click on these so fast it's kind of ridiculous
🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿😍😍
D mannose for UTI's
you have a lot blue
I love blue 😎
