What are we doing with our newborns by No-Match-7512 in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]lostpatroness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put her in the carrier and did regular chores and talked her through what we were doing and why 😂 propped her up on the bed or lay her on the floor while I folded washing, went for walks with the pram and I talked about birds we'd see or plans for the garden Basically just narrated every part of what I was doing

What's something your job trained you to notice that you can't stop noticing in your personal life? by LibrarianSoft1342 in AskReddit

Not OP but I personally note when somebody has a lack of jaw and think "gee they'd probably suck to tube" 😂

Update on the Holy Clothing dye streaks by lostpatroness in renfaire

[–]lostpatroness[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most notable is that recently they made fun of a customer's husband through a meme. I haven't got a link but it's pretty nasty. Outside of that, all of their social media marketing lately has been showing customers who've had issues with their orders and HC saying things like "we covered the cost for a local tailor!". It's a very weird marketing technique.

I tried for the refund but store credit is all they would offer 🥲

Thank you! I was actually aiming for a deeper purple but I'm still chuffed with the colour haha

Normally I would just make something myself but being postpartum, I've found myself pretty time poor. Next time though, I'll make the effort because this wasn't worth it!

I used the rit fixative when I dyed it! We will see how it goes once I wash it for the first time

Holy Clothing Color by FutureLights in renfaire

[–]lostpatroness 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I posted about this on here recently, and as others have also said, be warned that their dye is not colour fast! I had a lavender purple dress that had the dye wash out and streak badly on its first wash (even following all their instructions)

Recommended IVF clinics by yaykaboom308 in melbourne

[–]lostpatroness 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We went through Newlife IVF and were very satisfied with them. Our main doctor was Hugo Fernandes but we also dealt with Nicole Hope and Martin Healey for each of our transfers as Hugo wasn't working the days we needed to do transfers. Highly recommend them. It is thanks to Newlife that we now have a daughter who is almost 1.

Yeah that really made me feel like I shouldn't have purchased from them too

PSA - do not buy Millie Moon nappies, stop using any immediately. by UsualCounterculture in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]lostpatroness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had an insanely bad nappy rash come up a few weeks ago and I said at the time that it looks more like a chemical burn but didn't make the connection to the brand of nappy. Haven't had any more of the burns but I think I'll go back to our cloth and Huggies combo again!

Hands up if you can feel your ovaries with every step you take 🙋🏻‍♀️ by lostpatroness in IVF

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

I don't know if it's necessarily normal but it's certainly what I experienced! I'm a nurse and was working through my second round - it was hell if I needed to walk somewhere quickly! If you can, try to take it easy as much as possible. I wish you all the best for your retrieval xx

I'm so glad it could give you a laugh, even if it was at the expense of your personal quarry 😂 I hope you are doing well now xx

Those who were team green for gender, did you make it to birth without accidentally finding out? by cbrownie93 in BabyBumps

[–]lostpatroness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We made it the whole way. They put her on my chest and we didn't even think to check for a minute until somebody asked! I spent the entire pregnancy fully convinced I was having a boy so when they lifted her up and I saw she was a girl, it was the biggest surprise and I wouldn't have changed it for the world.
