'Him'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Condo drama today has been low. Got a call from the property manager, which was good. Most drama occurred from coming clean with Tom on the whole thing. I've been bringing him up to speed slowly this week, but now also I had to go into why I didn't tell him in the first place. Which... AWKward!
I did enjoy not having to deal with tenants or neighbors.
FWIW, I've never had a doctor warn me against taking baths with a UTI.
I never took a bubble bath until I was in college, because my mom firmly believed that they give you UTIs. She might still believe that, come to think of it.
For certain values of "you", your mother was not entirely incorrect.
But isn't the problem in that equation the bubbles, and not the bath? My understanding is that the chemicals that make bubble baths bubbly are potential irritants, but that sitting in warm water is not in and of itself a problem.

We took baths (vs. showers, I mean); just not the bubble variety.
But -- if the chemicals cause irritation, that doesn't necessarily mean UTI, though I do understand that an irritated area can be more prone to any bacteria that wander by. And -- though I am only an ancedatal sample of one -- I've taken a lot of bubble baths since college, and never gotten a UTI from them.
Anyway, I'm glad for my mom's sake that she was partially right, since she tends to be full of "wisdom" that is not exactly accurate.

Same here. I've been told not to use bubble baths or bath salts, but that baths themselves were fine.
I have not exhaustively experimented. Despite some evidence that the bubbles tend to be the significant variable, I have considered it prudent to avoid baths in general.
When I was a kid and would get UTIs I'd soak in oatmeal baths. It deffinately cut down on the burning for a while afterwards.
Why is the exchange rate to Pound Sterling so crap right now? This is thwarting my plans.
(Note: I do not need an explanation of international currency rates and voodoo, thank you. I am just whining.)

Oh, Jilli. Why do you hate America?
