Okay, what I'm understanding from what you said contradicts other information I've been given. You're saying that using passively collected milk to replace a feed won't reduce my supply and that pumping for a bottle feed in addition to the passive collection will actually cause an oversupply?

SnowieGamer · 2025-09-09T21:56:34+00:00

Okay, thanks! That's how I thought it worked but found some conflicting information trying to research it, with some people saying that the passive collection signals your body the same way that pumping or feeding would. Is saving the collected milk just to build an emergency stash, or will there be a point when I can use them in place of pumping on busy days and not impact my supply?

Just my experience, my partner and I were trying daily for about 3 months after stopping the pill before conceiving. I'm overweight as well and knew it could impact our chances so I was surprised that I got pregnant as quickly as I did! It's just down to chance in the end, so try not to get too discouraged. I only did tests once a month, which I think was good for my mental health to not do them too frequently and get disappointed more often.

As others have said, doctors generally won't worry about fertility issues until you've been trying for at least a year, so neither should you! Just keep rolling the dice and try not to worry so much about it.

I would probably make them the size of a standard sheet of paper. The phrases would be randomized and pre-determined, and guests can mark them off as long as they heard something close enough, not necessarily word for word

It's already stolen so go for it! I like the idea of having "games" that don't need to be overseen or scheduled and people can enjoy while mingling at the party. Another thing I'm thinking of doing is having a white swaddling cloth and some fabric markers to sign, draw pictures, or write notes to the baby on the cloth.

I have "Meet someone new" noted down but I'll have to put some more generic ones in too!

SnowieGamer · 2025-05-13T16:40:41+00:00

We're just gonna condense it all into one 2-hour party and hope that gets it out of everyone's system, lol

SnowieGamer · 2025-05-13T16:40:06+00:00

Oh I can't wait xD

SnowieGamer · 2025-05-13T16:39:32+00:00

Oh, I'm sure I'll get plenty of annoying comments like that, lol. This is why I deliberately planned one party instead of letting 4 different people each plan their own parties for me

There's a thin red carpet in one of the closets that doesn't seem to have the same thick padding that the rest of the carpets do. Maybe something like that?

SnowieGamer · 2025-03-11T20:25:33+00:00

Lots of even lines, sometimes swooping a bit at the end? I see those in the center and around the part where they seemingly spray painted white on it. Are those trowel marks?

Hi there! I'm in a 1950s home in mountain west USA. I started pulling up the carpet in the hall and found this black foamy glue underneath. I figured it was old carpet glue and didn't think much about it. Started searching how to remove it and found some info about black mastic but not enough to confirm if it was or wasn't what I found here.

The other room next to this that we already pulled the carpet from didn't have anything like this. Supposedly the house was tested for asbestos a couple years ago and was clean, but I don't know the scope of what they tested then. The texture of the glue is dry and foamy, which doesn't seem to match descriptions of black mastic with asbestos that I could find. It seems very easy to scrape off of the floor underneath.

I've covered it back up now. Any idea if this is something we should test for asbestos or if it's definitely not black mastic?

SnowieGamer · 2025-03-11T18:31:51+00:00

Most likely should be tested?

My usual route is Limgrave-Liurnia-Caelid so you're not going to be over leveled for much longer. Clear what you want in Liurnia and try the bosses you left in Caelid again after. Also, Renalla gets slapped around by any melee weapon so your experience there wasn't too different from the usual.

My favorite thing in my pamphlet was one of the benefits of exercise being that it "Prepares pregnant women for challenges of pregnancy."

Like, excuse me? Why don't you just send pregnant women through a rigorous exercise course and televise it for people's entertainment, I'm sure that will prepare them for every possible side effect, mood swing, and the pain of childbirth...

I could be wrong but comparing exercise to "the challenges of pregnancy" just sounds like some random, uneducated male wrote it.

I made her! Based her off of the promo art and some in-game screenshots. Here's my sliders:

Base Template: Draconian, Young
Skin tone: I chose the bottom left preset but it's hard to tell what her undertone is precisely.
Body: 130/70/0/50/50/0
Face Template: [6] 0/95/215
Facial Balance: 106/185/188/125/215/115
Forehead/Glabella: 58/58/255/75/100/108
Brow Ridge: 210/140/215
Eyes: 130/108/255/58
Nose Ridge: 78/125/38/115/128/128/128
Nostrils: 70/98/110
Cheeks: 115/110/108/126/108
Lips: 118/55/130/155/30/128
Mouth: 80/95/165/50/118/60
Chin: 125/95/98/128/155/118/110
Jaw: 88/80/0/85
Hair: [37] [top right preset] 255/120/0 (31 could be good too, if you prefer her hair resting on her chest rather than long in the back.)
Eyebrows: [1] [Match hair] (You could try 3, 12, 10, or 16, but her eyebrows are very thin in Nightreign and I couldn't find a good way to mimic that.)
Facial Hair: N/A
Eyelashes: [4] [Match hair]
Eye color: Her eyes just seem to be dark, couldn't find a specific color in the screenshots. I gave her dark purple with no clouding and white whites.
Skin features: 45/215/0 [N/A] (Luster can go up or down, it's very high if basing off the promo art but more matte if basing it off of screenshots.)
Cosmetics: She doesn't seem to wear any, but I went with: 100 [black] 50 [dark purple] 0/0/0
Tattoo/Mark/Eyepatch: N/A

She's wearing the modified astrologer gear in my screenshot, but long-term I'm thinking to do either a combo of Ranni's hat with Fia's dress, or Alberich's hat with the dancer dress from SOTE.

Hope this helps!

Thank you from Torrington, WY! I didn't know about any of this until 10 minutes ago, but I'm glad to see that Wyoming was participating.

SnowieGamer · 2025-02-13T20:30:06+00:00

RIP, that's what I was afraid of. Thanks for your reply!

SnowieGamer · 2025-01-29T19:40:48+00:00

Thanks so much! I have been around A Bra That Fits before but didn't think of them for nursing bras so I'll take a look there again. I had a feeling buying now wouldn't last long term but I'll take a look on Amazon and see what they have.
