Blood thinners

What are the reasons people are prescribed blood thinners after birth? I had an induction and just noticed in my BadgerNotes it says I was prescribed blood thinners apart from I wasn’t/ didn’t have them 🙈 not sure if I should be or if it’s an error!

Can anyone tell me if I'm being insane or if I'm right in what I'm thinking?

Me and my partner haven't had sex in 5 months, since I had our son. Mainly due to having an episiotomy and then not being in the mood. I have since also put on about 3st. A newborn, 2yo and ppd is a sucker. Anyway, we went for it last night. We was watching naked attraction and a beautiful woman came on and was shak...

Dinner 23m

Slight variation on the below gousto recipe - added ginger and sweet potato to the daal, and did basa instead of chicken. Garlic and coriander naan, and a bit of a microwaved poppadom (not fried). No rice this evening. This was one of her earliest meals, blended up and she’s still enjoying it now ^_^

I'm not interested in sex. So I should just divorce my husband because I'm not interested. Or I should make myself interested or give him a free pass to go cheat with somebody else ?

Hes talking to other women anyway and I'm really not interested, I don't want to be interested I don't trust him with my body. I do want to stay married but don't want sex.

Vitamins

Looking for multivitamin for my lb, and I was thinking of getting one with iron, as my lb is getting more fussy with food with little meat and veg, and is sleeping terribly, which I wonder is due to low iron. Does anyone know of any good ones? And are gummies safe at this age? He's 3 in 2 months x
