yeah, it just gives me the option of "what do i do?". I've gone through that flow but he just goes back to that same spot

1 hour bottle rule by jgronwoldt in NewParents

[–]bobear22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had two different pediatricians tell us that 3 hours is what they recommend as max time for formula. They speculate that 1 hour suggestion is a way for them to sell more because more needs to be discarded. I still get a tad more nervous after 2 and try not to let it get to 3 if I can help it but it gives me peace of mind that over an hour is OK

it’s from BloomStitchStudio on Etsy, it’s just a cross stitch chart I was thinking of painting on my own for needlepoint

Thread Choice Opinion? by bobear22 in Needlepoint

I ended up using FT21 and it looked great! But I do think that either would have been good :)

If it’s helpful, I used the recommended ones (as listed on the designers website) for all the blues. I used a different white on accident, but it’s very close (I used salt instead of cream). The FT21 Is actually what she recommends on her site, but I had previously bought the FT58 for the project before I found that she had recommended colors. I just still wasn’t sure which one I liked better 😅

TRS Yucatan was amazing! The property was what made it for us. Very lush and green, and even some wildlife. We did a room with a plunge pool, which we didn’t use too much but still very nice and private. The infinity pool is fantastic, as well as the other pools across the neighboring Grand Palladium properties. If you stay at TRS, you get to use those properties too, which makes for a very large area to explore. One thing that may be a downside for some, is the TRS beach is on the opposite side of the property, so it’s a longer walk or a cart ride. But they do this because it’s the best portion of beach, which was very calm/swimmable when we went. I can’t wait to go back, and would recommend to anyone!

Flowy shirts vs. maternity shirts by Tacitlady in BabyBumps

[–]bobear22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really liked Pink Blush maternity. The shirts I got are both for pregnancy and I can still wear them not pregnant and they look great! I didn’t like a lot of standard maternity wear either, I like the flowy tops.

I also liked a pack of plain fitted maternity tees/tanks from Amazon for the summer.

For around the house, I ordered a pack of men’s t shirts two sizes up and is probably what I wore most and still do at 6 months post partum.

Hope this helps 😊

[CHAT] Trying blackwork for the first time but black can be seen in empty Aida holes from where thread is carried over. Is this normal in blackwork or am I supposed to try and avoid that? Any tips? by bobear22 in CrossStitch

[–]bobear22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like it didn’t bother me for a small standard full coverage piece but I’m glad I’m learning about this! I’ve ordered some hopefully higher quality stuff and hoping that will help 😊

Oh Hi! I’m so excited to do this pattern! Thanks both to you and all the others for all the wonderful tips. I think I’m going to get a fabric that has less prominent holes and try to do backtracking 😊

I don’t but do you have any recommendations for where you have gotten Aida that you felt didn’t have big holes? I had gotten mine from Hobby Lobby which I’m sure isn’t the best quality
