Hello, I was just wondering if there's anyone here who is any good at altering clothes? And if so, if you'd be willing to do me a favour?

	I'm very good with a needle and thread. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Ah, wonderful. Well, it's a bit of an odd request. I'm not sure if you're aware- my husband is pregnant, and of course- there's not exactly any maternity wear for men out there, understandably! So, I was really looking for someone who would be able to alter some of his clothing to make him more comfortable. Do you think that's something you'd be able to manage?

	I would need some measurements but I could do it. This is a very strange place that a man is pregnant. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That would be great, thank you. I can get you measurements. It is, it's strange to us as well. It's not something that would have been possible in our world, either. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oui, monsieur. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Oh, wonderful. Well, if you would be willing, I'm looking for someone to alter my husband's clothing to make him more comfortable throughout his pregnancy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_grantaire 2013-04-30 07:06 pm UTC (link)
	Pardon. Your husband has his pregnancy? How most un usual. But I can make or alter as you wish. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	charlieprice 2013-04-30 07:12 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, yes, it is unusual for us, as well. But that's great, thank you! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'm still pretty good (Reply to this) (Thread)

	charlieprice 2013-04-30 06:43 pm UTC (link)
	Ah, well the request is as I said above- to create some maternity wear for my husband. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	gwen_pendragon 2013-04-30 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	Of course, if you can get me the measurements...I've dealt with stranger (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's wonderful, I'll get back to you, thank you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I may be a little old fashioned though (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	charlieprice 2013-04-30 08:58 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, not to worry. Anything you can do will be appreciated. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	He can have my belly bands, they'll make it so he can wear his clothes for a little while longer. And it'll wick away the sweat from underneath. Have you been a good hubby and rubbing his belly with cocoa butter so he doesn't get stretch marks? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	charlieprice 2013-04-30 06:58 pm UTC (link)
	That's absolutely brilliant, thank you so much! Eh, no- I've never even heard of it. I know nothing, Maryanne!! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-04-30 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	I have a white one, a nude one, a navy one and a black one. I'll bring them over in a bit, if you'd like. I'll also pick up a bottle of cocoa butter. Er, does he have all the bodily 'mommy' accessories? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	charlieprice 2013-04-30 07:20 pm UTC (link)
	That would be absolutely fantastic, thank you. You're so good to us. Erm- if you mean has his body changed in any other way, then no. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-04-30 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	You're very welcome. Yeah, I was trying to be covert about whether or not he'd need a pump or not. I'd seriously die without one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	charlieprice 2013-04-30 07:46 pm UTC (link)
	No, that doesn't seem to be an issue. ~~Shit, we need to stockpile forumla~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-04-30 07:58 pm UTC (link)
	Well, that's a good thing, and a bad one. It's a little weird to ask but I end up with loads extra. Every day. Do you want to freeze it and... save it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	charlieprice 2013-04-30 08:01 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I was just thinking that actually. You- wouldn't object? That's incredibly helpful of you- only you know how this island is, I wouldn't trust it to make it easy. I don't even know how long formula really lasts, and we've been here a while, you know? Erm- so yes, only if you really have no problem with it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-04-30 08:23 pm UTC (link)
	I wouldn't object at all, and one of the ladies that was here before said it lasts up to a year in the freezer. I don't know about formula either, though. Tim only gets breast milk. And a few solid foods that are mooshed up, that his BFF gets. It's better that it's used than not, you know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	charlieprice 2013-04-30 08:26 pm UTC (link)
	That's absolutely fantastic! Honestly, I can't even express how grateful I am for you right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-04-30 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	Well.. Just take it as a show my gratitude for everything you do for us everyday. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	charlieprice 2013-04-30 08:54 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you. Really. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm really glad I can do it John. (Reply to this) (Parent)
