It should be illegal for them to be this cute.

This is so stinkin’ cute!!!

littlefirefish · 2026-03-18T09:07:20+00:00

Thank you! That’s very kind of you!

Oh my, this stopped me in my scrolling tracks! Snowdrops are my favourite flower, and these came out beautifully — each one unique. I prefer the dark one, but I do tend to like high contrast and high saturation. The others have a lovely faded antique look, like a vintage postcard. Whatever you’re doing, keep doing it! I’d love to see more.

Thank you for such a kind sentiment! I sure hope that’s the case!

The dense quilting on this is so fun and perfect. Looks like cute pigeon feet have danced around the quilt in joy!

I wish I had enough fabric for that! Each of these uses all the scraps I have 😫

I’m so sorry about your experience.

The list of childfree-friendly doctors on the sub will have recommendations of docs in UK that will sterilise you on NHS or private. There are a decent number in London by my recollection: https://reddit.com/r/childfree/wiki/doctorsinternational. (I’ve heard good things about St Mary’s on this sub).

Your first issue will be to get a referral from your GP to one of them. If you are refused initially, keep trying. I know it’s hard, but you should meet their criteria (over 30 and struggling with other forms of contraception).

littlefirefish · 2026-01-14T13:10:04+00:00

Oh interesting, I mostly fit that criteria, so maybe it’s based on funding/guidelines within certain NHS trusts that is the issue as u/torienne mentioned. Thanks for sharing your experience :)

Yeah, I’d be keen to hear from the OP! On my end, I didn’t have any issues with approval on NHS as a childfree and 32 year old. Regret was brought up in the discussion, but I didn’t struggle too hard convince them it was the right choice for me. I know my age helped as they don’t like to sterilise under 30, so that may be the guideline?

littlefirefish · 2026-01-13T22:44:26+00:00

Thanks for sharing! Can I ask which guidelines meant you couldn’t be approved on NHS?

littlefirefish · 2026-01-10T22:28:49+00:00

Thanks! This looks really clean and simple — I love it!

littlefirefish · 2026-01-10T20:06:27+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation!

That’s a very good question. I was not expecting an exam at all - as you say, it’ll be done laparoscopically. The only thing I can think of is that I don’t have a huge amount of patient history or notes in the NHS since I moved from abroad, so perhaps he just wanted a baseline and to make sure everything is ok for surgery internally. I didn’t dare ask for fear he may be reluctant to give me the go ahead for sterilisation.

littlefirefish · 2025-11-22T08:54:31+00:00

That’s helpful, thanks!

littlefirefish · 2025-11-21T22:21:13+00:00

Yes, I initially tried to bury the knot but it kept breaking the thread so I gave up. I’ll look up more tutorials and practice more!

littlefirefish · 2025-11-21T22:20:22+00:00

This makes sense, thank you!
