Blinkie question!

[cleckner04]

... Coming in here to ask a few questions. I am constantly seeing girls asking for breastfeeding blinkies in the BFing section so I finally decided to make a new photobucket account that is specifically for blinkies. While I was in the process of gathering them all together I realized that there are tons of breastfeeding blinkies but not nearly as many formula feeding blinkies out there. So I decided to add a sub-album to it that has formula blinkies. And I'll probably expand to TTC/Pregnancy/Etc. eventually. But I was wondering if any of you had some good formula blinkies that you'd be willing to share and I'll add it to the album! Any help would be appreciated!

The link to the photobucket account is in my siggy if anyone wants to check out what I have so far. I've been doing searches but it's hard to come up with a lot. And I don't want any blinkies that bash BFing and the same goes with breastfeeding blinkies that bash FFing IYKWIM. Just nice blinkies that show our parenting styles and that we are proud!

Hii, you add mine

DO you need the link to add it?

 

[cleckner04]

I've got yours hun!! Thank you! I'll probably do some more searching today. It's very hard to find them! Which is a shame really. I wish I knew how to make them for you girls. I found one milestone for formula feeding and it's a 3 month milestone. But I can't for the life of me find any more to match it.

 

[cleckner04]

Okay, I added a bunch more for you girls! I now have 45 formula blinkies on there! I'll keep hunting for them but some so far are SUPER cute! Hope you girls enjoy them!

Thanks hun

I found a site with blinkie tutorials (though it's another parenting forum so won't post the link, PM me if you want it I guess?). I was toying with the idea of trying to learn to make them (as if I don't have enough to do!), but really there aren't very many FF ones I've seen.

I'm probably being dense, but I can only see the BF blinkies when I click on that link in your sig! Am I missing something?

^^ it's a sub album off to the right

 

[cleckner04]

It really has been a pain to find them! I've went to random other forums and searched photobucket, searched google images etc. I really wouldn't want to make my own though. I don't even know what I'd say on them that isn't already said on the others. The only ones I wish I could find more of are the "proudly formula feeding for xx months" Because there are tons of those for breastfeeders but I've only found 7 for formula feeders.

The main section on my link is breastfeeding stuff, but I had started off collecting just breastfeeding stuff. Than I felt bad because we shouldn't get all the cool blinkies ya know?! You girls should be equally proud! So I do apologize that there are so many breastfeeding compared to formula blinkies but I'm definitely trying!!

If anyone else wants to give making them a try I would be more than happy to add their creations to the album. As long as it is pro FF but not meanly so if that makes sense. I don't particularly like the 'its formula not rat poison' ones so I left them out purposely.

Do you just use the img code to put them in your sig?? xx

 

[cleckner04]

Yup!!

In other words, I was being dense

I blame my new laptop which has a stupidly big screen, I wasn't looking far enough over

Thank you Cleckner

Well, You only need 12-14 milestones blinkies for FFing

I dont think anyone will go for more that 14 months before switching to either toddlers milk (which is not formula) or cow milk

 

[cleckner04]

That's very true and I never even thought of it! So far I only have 1-6 months.

Thankyou hun x

 

[OmarsMum]

That's very true and I never even thought of it! So far I only have 1-6 months.

& many people dont start ffing immediately. So those who switched from bfing let's say at 6 months, with only need 6-7 FF milestones blinkies.

i dont suppose you could find any with mum/mummy? I find it odd reading mom/mommy lol. Id feel like a fraud putting mommy in my sig!!!

 

[cleckner04]

Unfortunately, the websites I go to are US websites because those are what come up through google IYKWIM. Maybe you can do a google search and find some for me?

 

[bathbabe]

im usually on my phone so its a nightmare to do anything lol. But if i ever manage to get on a proper comp i will have a hunt x

 

[cleckner04]

Okay! That goes for other UK girls too. If you'd like more with 'mummy' instead of mommy just have a search for me and I'll add them to the albums!
