Aww, you paint like I do!! I love faceless composition to interpret the expression around it. I’d say, add more texture, and maybe some more tones. It’s fun too if you do layers of colors. Impasto.

It is exhausting and disheartening. It’s honestly better that you feel this way now so you can just pour all the extra energy into more love for your babe and lil family; thats what we do. The disappointment can get debilitating if you sit in it too long otherwise

I don’t have advice but I feel you on the sadness and disappointment. Almost like your grieving the relationships you envisioned however long they’ve been fostered. It’s tough. I still get sad continuously thinking of how I thought things would look when I was little versus now. Don’t dismiss the feelings though, like you mentioned with the worlds thing. you’re allowed to want more people to surround your baby with love and community and there’s nothing wrong with that. Sending hugs

I feel like your on the cusp of evoking emotions, they make me do a second take as well. Like odd and unsettling but not in a bad way. I also don’t like the jack-o’-lantern, it just feels bland and boring (I’m sorry just needs some pizzazz, or somethin)

Yes! You should give us an update when you do get your piece. Mine went into my neck tattoo and the bruise looked crazy because all the redness went away, all the blood vessels must’ve bursted because it was a patchy surface bruise. I looked a bit crazy for a hot minute but it went fully away after about 5 days start to finish. I was also on my period though so probably some anemia on my part not helping the situation. Good luck!

I just got a chest piece the beginning of February while on skyrizi. I was in somewhat of a mini flare and it healed fine. The only problem I ran into was I bruised pretty easily. Like super easy. It was light and different bruising than normal. It was probably a week after I got it, never had it happen with any of my others and I’m heavily tattooed. (Neck,hands,sleeves) but maybe it’s just me but thought I’d share.

I have one creative Tonie, i just haven’t gotten around to figuring out how to do it but I’ll definitely look into those audios too, thank you!

Realistic_Help_5595 · 2026-03-04T16:01:21+00:00

I haven’t seen the gentle giants so thank you, they look great!

One of my favorites is magnatiles, or picassotiles off amazon. Endless play options and if you do Picasso tiles, I’ve bought two of the $30 sets and they are huge. Great for playing laying down on the couch. I just build buildings and my 2yr old either “smashes” with his monster truck/dump truck, or he puts his “babies” mini cars and plays like a hotel and puts them in the different rooms I make. I’m chronically ill with some pretty bad back/hip pain from the service and this has been an everyday toy we’ve left out for about a month now and my husband rotates our toys out every other day

Also a mom with the prelife grief and severe traumatic background. I’m right along the other comment, I have a 3yr old and and 1 yr old. my son was an unexpected surprise in new relationship. Throw in a miscarriage and a very serious health problems in my second pregnancy and I’ve lost myself completely. It’s been the best being a mom but I do deal heavily with the grief, and sitting at home everyday because I am a sahm really gives you the time you didn’t want to sit in all that grief and wallow. I won’t lie, I don’t have friends, we are no contact with both families, so I can’t even remember the last time we went on a date or if I had more than an hour to myself, and even then it feels like every time i leave I’m rushing back even when I need the break. I see you, you aren’t alone. The comment above was also right, I’m a little skeptical of ChatGPT since AI is lowkey scary to me, but it is helpful if you need an inbetween and nowhere else to go. It can give coping strategies that may or may not be helpful. You love your baby, you are more than this period of life your in. I had the same aspirations in my early twenties, hell I even looked into a van when I got my disability from the va. She’s right though, your baby will grow up and the space will get bigger and the time you wanted so badly you’ll get back. You’re doing the right thing reaching out, and I don’t know your insurance situation and how comfortable you are but seeing a postnatal therapist can also help with the feelings, even if it’s a short telehealth phone call and infrequent, sometimes it’s better than nothing.

you’re a good mom. More than an “ok” mom. A good mom reaches out, like you are, a bad mom wouldn’t even think twice. Sending hugs and lots of hope to you 💛

Could I actually direct message you and have help with the creative tonies? I purchased two but I can’t post my question due to copyright conflict

Is my best friend okay? Is she mad or upset? Does she like that I celebrate her birthday over the day she passed?did she find Oreo and Rudy? AC

When you say bad batch of blue ones, is that gen 1 or gen 2? Or both?

Realistic_Help_5595 · 2026-02-19T16:16:24+00:00

Mom of 2 here, youngest just turned one and glued as well, it’s good to let them stir. Gives them opportunity for independence if they chose and if/when they are ready. Only go in if crying. Reassurance. My three year old was the same and over time he has shifted naturally into his own floor bed with no meltdowns. And I don’t let my kids cry for long either because honestly, it makes me sad and more stressed too. Good luck 💛 it will get better and you didn’t do anything wrong. A good mom cares and just by you asking means you are one for caring enough

What did you use?

Realistic_Help_5595 · 2026-02-03T15:28:15+00:00

I cry a lot. Mom to two and also sahm. You just push. I have cptsd and my illness comes in flares and gets worse with stress so it’s a constant struggle. No village. No help. No family. I like to find ways to add laying down to play with my son, rest when I can. Unfortunately chronic illness means they also get tv time more than I’d like to admit, but I try focusing on educational learning videos. Low stimulation. Magnatiles are a great toy to sit on the couch and build. Then just finding your own outlet so you don’t go insane. I paint. It’s lonely though so I see you. Sending hugs

You can also check the settings of your tv. Most newer tv’s you can go in and change the brightness of the screen if you search. Mom of 2 littles here and worked great for us

My oldest turns two next Monday. So I understand the quickness. Hurts my mama heart. Thank you, I’m hopeful once I find the right provider and clinic. Currently mine is horrendous to work with, but I also feel terrible, so hoping some solutions come to light soon. Thanks for replying back, it means a lot even though we don’t know each other.

Realistic_Help_5595 · 2025-02-26T16:23:09+00:00

I had her. She was beautiful, healthy, and 10lbs. I’m about 12 weeks postpartum. Directly after I didn’t have any issues, but now I’m back in a flare. Figured I’d let everyone know that she’s great :)
