Postpartum hair

Did anyone else’s hair completely change pregnant/postpartum? I used to have silky straight hair and now there’s random waves and a layer of thick frizz. I don’t know how to make it look decent without using heat on it 😅

Mine used to be random waves and is now much straighter! It’s so weird

Mine feels brittle and dry now 😭. My skin is so dry too, I think from breastfeeding

Mine is really thick and lush since I’m still taking my prenatal while breastfeeding. I’m scared what it will do when I stop!

Mine is exactly like this. I breastfeed so it most likely is drying out my skin hair etc.

Your hair texture can change after giving birth/pregnancy. It’s normal.

Yes! From the hormones.

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. 🤍

Help

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 🤣
