Sex after birth

I’m 9 weeks postpartum and sex stings rlly bad, I had a natural birth and I know they’ll be damage like my baby was over 10 pounds but i get turned on and once it’s over I’m in pain down there and partly during it too especially when deep in sorry this is explicit but I have a high sex drive so not having sex is tricky for me but then the pain afterwards is quite uncomfortable

Breastfeeding

I’m 4 days postpartum and up to now we have been bottle feeding. I think I have decided I want to try breastfeeding. My boobs have gone hard today and I think my milk has come in. Is it to late to try

To shave or not to shave

What is everyone planning or done in the past when it comes to shaving downstairs for labour and delivery. And if it’s not shaven when waters have broken has anyone stopped to shave or planning on doing it. Just wondering…

You just buckled your kid into the car seat after they fought and cried and made it take several minutes longer than normal. You get in the drivers seat and go to open your gps to realize you left your phone in the house. What do?

Is your answer different if it’s a house versus apartment?

Sore bum!

Bubba is just over two weeks old and her bottom looks so sore!! We’ve been making sure it’s clean and dry and each nappy change and been using the protect and prevent sudocream but it seems to be getting worse and she screams when we clean it so it must be causing her pain. Any tips to help her?

1 month old always crying -what am I doing wrong

I feel like my 1 month old is always crying unless she is being fed or is asleep. She is maybe happy for 5mins or so and then crying again. She must be tired but won't sleep in the day for very long even if I'm holding her. Is it just me? Feel like I'm doing something wrong ?
