I shaved recently and I’m 3 weeks postpartum tommorow. I had a normal delivery and no stitches tho so it may be different x

1 month PP and have shaved since 3 weeks probably I can’t remember. I had stitches for a tear

I shaved about 3 weeks pp x

I shaved 2 days after & had 14 stitches.. I was advised it would help the healing process of keeping the wound clear of any obstruction xx

I trimmed/tidied for the first time yesterday, i’m 4 weeks pp on Wednesday - it was getting irritable and stuck on the pads🥴🥲 i had an episiotomy and a fair few stitches tho and i know that it’s still healing x

Mama needs new friends ✨

Hey mamas 🤍 I'm going to be honest — I'm at a season in my life where I'm craving real, genuine friendship. The kind where we actually check on each other. Where conversations go both ways. Where we can laugh, vent, cry, and just *be* without it feeling one-sided.

I'm a stay at home mom of 6 (yes, 6! 👏🏼) and my days are full but my cup feels a little empty in the friendship department. I'm looking for women who get it — the chaos, the beauty, the exhaustion, all of it.

If you're a mom who values deep, reciprocal friendship and you're also out here looking for your people — drop a 👋 below. Let's actually get to know each other. 🤍

Really embarrassing!
I'm a first time mummy at 35, she's 16 month and everytime I sneeze or cough I lose control of my bladder and pee a little 😔, I've had countless utis since having her aswell! Will it get better? Or do I need to invest in panty liners? 😆

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Random but when you use a vibrator do you need to hold your lips open for it to touch the bean ?

It gets annoying because even if I open my legs I still need to hold the lips open to touch the bean and I have to do it the entire time my lips are literally sealed closed 🤣
