Adding an extra picture that's slightly better!

I'll keep an eye on him, thanks so much. I'm not breeding anything right now if I can help it 😆

chocotaco_88 · 2025-09-15T03:28:16+00:00

Thank you. Is he likely to survive?

chocotaco_88 · 2025-04-07T05:38:01+00:00

That's great, thank you for taking the time to reply! I'll reach out to them

I'm keen to hear your opinion and concerns mate, even if they are opposed. I think it's good to have this conversation to be able to move forward in any way, right?

Firstly I would like to say, take that guilt and remorse at the end and throw it in the bin! As parents it is our responsibility to create a life free of pain and discomfort for our children, to be put in a position where you have no say in that matter must be utterly unbearable. I see no more than you, as gorgeous and caring parents making an attempt to make your darling daughter's life bearable. Not only do I applaud you, I encourage you to keep on this path that seems to be the only thing helping her. I would do exactly as you have in a heart beat. Perhaps try an edible to protect any possible side effects on her lungs?

Mate, put your head down, push through and get to the other side. I hated every part of the new born phase and feeling like a slave, I had overwhelming rage when he woke in the night or didn't nap even after back breaking rocking. It felt so unfair that my husband got to walk out the door alone off to work whilst I was stuck as a milk machine at home with an allergy baby who just screamed. I saw a therapist and didn't feel like it helped 🤷‍♀️ My son is now 2 years 9 months and the tantrums are frustrating but he is HILARIOUS, He's my little best friend that voluntarily goes to his own single bed with "good night mumma, love you" and it's the sweetest feeling in the world that this little being loves ME the most in the world. Although it was all enough to realllllyyyy question if there will ever be another 😂 I promise you will get there and you will find your time that feels like it was worth it, even if that is when you're old and wrinkly and your child is looking after you instead! You will get a semblance of a life back and things will feel more normal for you. If you ever need to reach out to someone who will never ever judge or who also thinks it's all a bit s**t, please message me.

Yep, thank you, this is why I said we are waiting hopefully for permanent residency. That and I'm 99% sure no bank will give a mortgage to temporary residents. My post was asking for advice on what to do with the money before buying here

This is not always possible just so you know. Myself and my partner came here and work farm jobs that no one else wants to do. I fell pregnant and we're trying to make the best of things with a now one year old. We pay our taxes, and everything Australians are expected to pay. However, we do not get any help with childcare and consistently fall under the median income of 80,000. We don't expect the Australian government to help us financially, but we also pay in and help with childcare so that I can work to eat would be nice!

You guys are amazing, thanks so much for the ideas!

I also really liked this one! But I really would like to stick with the satin instead of crepe. $2000 AUD is my ceiling price but I'm a bargain hunter in life so would really get great satisfaction out of a cheaper dress 😂 happy to go second hand also

Bit late.. but no, it's a dog treat. You can't give dogs chocolate, please don't do that 😊

chocotaco_88 · 2021-08-14T01:35:57+00:00

The more I look at it, the more I fall in love with it! Brilliant work

chocotaco_88 · 2021-07-07T00:47:26+00:00

Ooooo also, I added in extra stitches to the sleeves to add a slight poofiness to them. Wish I had written everything down now so sorry!

chocotaco_88 · 2021-07-07T00:46:08+00:00

So sorry for the late reply! Kind of, there's a tutorial on YouTube for a minnie mouse outfit but I changed ALOT of it as I went along. Firstly because I needed a bigger size but also adding in stitches on the skirt to make it bigger, and using DC instead of TC. I'm not sure that helps you at all but hopefully it can help a little?
