Did anyone go back on birth control?

I’m currently on my second pack of Slynd, which is safe to take while breastfeeding. Did you experience any breakthrough bleeding? Also, did you end up not getting a scheduled period while taking it?

I started taking this same brand right at 6 weeks. A couple months after I started taking it I bled very lightly for about 10 days and then another two months later had more light spotting but only for about 2 days. I stopped taking it all together recently and made me spot after I stopped taking it. About a month and a half later I got my first full blown period at 8 months pp

Oh I got a copper IUD. I never could tolerate hormonal birth control well. Too many awful side effects.

How do you accept money?

A childhood friend offered to send me $100 because he knows I’m going through a tough time. I’ve never been offered money before and have never asked anyone to borrow money. I don’t even know how to answer yes. It feels so weird. We only speak through Instagram so I don’t think he still has my number.

Do I reply with my phone number and say “you can send it through Zelle or Apple Pay” — that sounds so crazy to me.

Someone please help!

Do you get any baby-free time in your day?

Mums, do you get any baby-free time in your day? Time for just you. Just to be.

I feel terrible but I find it difficult to be with my baby all the time. I just feel like I need time away from her sometimes. Apart from my husband I have no one else around to help with the baby.

Hormonal Acne

Heyy! Is anyone else struggling with hormonal acne!? I swear my skin has never been this bad not even when I went through puberty! It started maybe when I was 5 months pregnant and it has gotten gradually worse! I don’t know what to do. I have tried all kinds of creams and ointments, I even resorted to using sudocream!!

I called the GP and a very polite man told me my hormones will balance themselves out in time and to think about having a hormonal coil. Which is something I’m open too, but I have to go to a clinic for this and when I called the one they suggested they told me this wasn’t the right one. Which felt embarrassing and now I’m demotivated to call the GP again and I keep praying for my skin to get better and my baby weight to drop off after 10 months postpartum and I still look pregnant!

Sorry that got a little ranty ! I just am struggling with how I look so long after giving birth!

In search of a bestfriend 🩷

Hey everyone! 🫶 I’m looking for a best friend who doesn’t mind a little healthy clinginess. Someone who loves texting every day, sending random memes and TikToks, and talking about literally anything.

I want a friendship where we both make time for each other, put in the same effort, and genuinely enjoy having one another around. Long-distance friendships are absolutely okay with me.

If you’re looking for that kind of friendship too, leave a comment 💕
