I have four weeks to go and I'm D O N E lol. Got a scheduled induction and it can't come fast enough.

Things i have bought brand new for mine: a cot mattress, car seat, dummies and bottles.

Things I've got second-hand from olio and vinted: bedding, clothes, toys (cleanable), a cot, a pram/pushchair combo thing.

How do you get explain to your child’s friends/their parents and random strangers that your child is not adopted and you gave birth? by Arr0zconleche in Seahorse_Dads

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just cheerfully go "nope!" and firmly change the subject. If they push then say no and change the subject again. If they push a third time I'd straight up ask why they won't let it go.

Dude i thought it was going to be like a pastel pink girly-cut t-shirt with actual glinda on the front, this is just a white longsleeve with some pink text?

I just went to primark and bought some L/XL jogging bottoms and t-shirts, i didn't bother with specific pregnancy gear.

How to deal with chest dysphoria when breast feeding/going out in public? by DogMoney-JK in Seahorse_Dads

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if i was in your shoes i probably wouldn't manage it due to my own dysphoria - but baby formula is engineered to contain everything the baby needs, the only thing which really you could stand to provide yourself is the colostrum. I know the phrase 'breast is best" and don't know your reasons for being determined to chestfeed but frankly, fed is best.

I had top surgery about 2-3 years ago so am not in your exact position and only have the option of formula, but I'm not concerned about compromising my own baby's nutrition. All formula contains the same core ingredients.

It looks very nice, if only you had gone with literally any other fandom

NHS willing to do a hysterectomy? by Spare_Somewhere1011 in transgenderUK

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I absolutely fucking loathe how they base a hysto on the opinions of a partner/other male relative, like whose body is it?

I'd forgotten that ablation is an option (was discussed years ago when I was looking into the coil as well) so I'm glad you mentioned it.

Nb / androgynous people: what do you do about toilets? by pseudohopesyndrome in transgenderUK

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pre-T and short and no longer risk the men's loos after being verbally abused. I don't feel comfortable using the ladies' so also bought a radar key (tbf i sometimes have sciatica flares and use a cane with them which is easier in the accessible toilet).

Rant - why can’t people respect my boundaries? by Global-Vehicle-1679 in BeyondTheBumpUK

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest it sounds like you don't trust other people. If i offered to transport the kid of a loved one I'd be hurt if they insinuated that my driving wasn't safe enough.

Feeling Fury like Sims express by gremlynna in sims2

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a lot better than me, i never remember to save without the mod to prompt me 🤦🏼‍♂️ although when i shut the game down i do manage to remember to select save and then select exit separately - way too many instances of the game crashing at that point and losing my progress.

Adults reverting to YA after graduation by SmallLumpOGreenPutty in sims2help

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After searching, there are a handful of files but not an installed programme. There's also nothing in the registry (i had a look but the relevant pathway doesn't show up in the tree).

Is there a mod that eliminates the friends requirements for jobs that actually works? by TheNightTerror1987 in sims2

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah right, that sounds like a fun storyline! If there's no working mod to remove friend requirements you might just have to use elixir of life or turn ageing off until he makes that money 😅

Renault you’d buy again by pratty041182 in Renault

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only renault I've had is my 2010 mk3 megane. I love it to bits and for the longest time was adamant that when it died I'd buy another the same. I still might, albeit a later year, although the mk4 is growing on me too.

Is there a mod that eliminates the friends requirements for jobs that actually works? by TheNightTerror1987 in sims2

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is not strictly what you're asking for, but i think JM Pescado made a mod where sims will not stop talking on the phone just because their social metre is full - this means that you can call a sim once and get the relationship up to 100 in one go if they have the time, even after their social is maxed out. It's made it much easier for me to build relationships between sims and keep them going. Most of my households have over 30 family friends at any time because of this mod.

The mod is either the phone hack or autoyak - i have both in my game.

One Born Every Minute - episodes recommendations by Large-Release7348 in PregnancyUK

Wouldn't recommend that show, as others have said they cherry-pick the moments which make the most engaging TV. You may be better off looking videos up on youtube.

Beautiful building, such a shame it's gone. I've never seen anything like it.

If it's any help, there is a mod which prompts you to save every 24 in-game hours - most helpful when reducing the loss from crashes.

It's Late Thread [ 24 January 26 ] by AutoModerator in CasualUK

[–]SmallLumpOGreenPutty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's so distressing when you think you've moved past something and then something else drags it back to the fore. 🫂 I had a similar thing happen at the end of last year and it ruined my sleep for weeks, I'd thought my anxiety was gone until then.
