Hi ladies, this is for fun. List 3 things you were able to do before you had little ones. I’ll go first.

1) going to the bathroom alone.
2) not sharing my food.
3) my personal space.

Uninterrupted sleep and having my boobs touched less. Lol!! Nursing is SO amazing but I definitely get to a point every day where I just feel done and over being touched there, either by the pump or even my LO. So. much. boob. touching. Love how special it feels to nurse, but looking forward to having my boobs back to myself. 🤣

While I really don’t see how some moms can’t go to the bathroom alone and things like that, (I just shut the door and she finds something else to do 🤷🏻‍♀️) I will say that I really miss body autonomy. My daughter has started pulling down my shirt in public and I’m about to lose my damn mind 😂😂😂

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Newborn stage

Is anyone tired of doing the same thing everyday and being on a 2-3 hour schedule? It’s the same everyday and I feel like I’m losing my mind. It’s making me depressed even if I get out once a day. When does it get better? I feel like I’m just waiting for the next stage where it’s not just sitting around all day.
