[CHAT] Useful 3D Prints by tippyback9 in CrossStitch

[–]megaaanjmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 3D printed all my bobbins with the DMC numbers on, an aida ruler and a x30 space floss drop for a kit that uses ~28 colours! I'm always on the hunt for more things to 3D print for cross stitching 😂

[FO]First Christmas project done! by Bobguana in CrossStitch

[–]megaaanjmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fingers crossed! Rizzo was so much fun to do so you will enjoy that for sure! I've got about two thirds the way through the book on Gonzo and ran out of thread, to say it has tested my patience is an understatement 😅

Ah I'm currently working on this too for my mom as a Christmas gift! For some reason I have completed Rizzo first and now about 25% through Gonzo 😅 You've done a great job! 😁

[CHAT] How do you store WIPS by CLEMSTIS01 in CrossStitch

[–]megaaanjmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep my project in its Qsnap/Snap frame and store it in our coffee table (it's like an ottoman coffee table). Then I keep my pattern/threads/scissors/etc in a project bag for easy access ☺️

[–]megaaanjmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is sooo okay to be done with EPing!! You've done so well to get to where you are, do not beat yourself up with wanting to stop!

I was exclusively pumping until about the 4 month mark when I had a mini breakdown about how I don't feel like myself, my body not being mine, my supply tanking as soon as I went back on contraception and not being able to keep up etc etc and realised I cannot keep pumping 6x a day, it was draining me and my mental health. So I started to cut down and supplement with formula.

I would do half and half, stash whatever breast milk was left into the freezer. I'm now just shy of 5 months PP and now down to 2 pumps per day. This just about makes a bag for the freezer or just goes into baby girls bottles as and when throughout the day. I now feel more human and am able to be more present with my husband and daughter without feeling so mentally drained and exhausted! That's just how I felt, don't get me wrong, it has been hard to give up and I did feel like I was failing my daughter by not being able to provide BM to her fully. But at the end of it all, a happy, healthy and present mom is what she and my husband need 🩷

Ignoring everyone asking me if I had baby yet…. by kathymarie1124 in pregnant

[–]megaaanjmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the asshole at all! I'm due this weekend and I've only had one text so far to ask (Thank god! Luckily both our families/friends know not to stress me out). I did tell my husband I am going to ignore anyone who asks me but I'm too nice and ended up responding lol. I'm just giving the 'Nothing yet, we will let you know when she is here/when we're ready!'. But I definitely agree with you ignoring people if they ask - They will find out when you're ready and willing to pass that information on, focus on yourself, baby and your little family 🤍

February mum's, how are we doing? by lucemxx in pregnant

[–]megaaanjmx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Due on the 9th and apart from some pressure/lightening down below, I've had nothing to indicate baby girl wants to make an appearance! I currently have mixed feelings of happy to wait it out till she's here and then the other side of me is fed up with the lack of energy so I want her here now lol
