things I've learned since baby Astrid was born.....
yes you will bleed, but if you breastfeed or at least try even for a few days, you bleed less.
the pads are ridiculously huge, almost diaper size.
you pee yourself when you sneeze/cough/ect during pregnancy, its worse after.
once your bleeding stops, you "leak" pee.
take EVERYTHING from the hospital, all those mesh panties, pads, diapers, ect.....take it ALL. your paying for it. take it. whether u pay or ur insurance does. its covered and its yours.
even if you want to exclusively breastfeed or have the baby room in with you, if the nurses offer to take ur baby for a few hours so you can sleep, accept the offer, just remind them that if ur exclusively breastfeeding, to bring baby back if baby gets hungry.
diapers, and wipes, if you think you have enough and your prepared, get more. don't focus on one specific brand though, your baby could end up being allergic.
if your like me, no body I know has had a c section, I did and I'm a ftm, don't let anyone tell you that after 2-3 weeks you shouldn't be in pain, my baby is almost a month old and I'm in crippling pain.
if your a ftm, yes things will worry you, like ur babies poop being black tar, or turning into a slimy green with seed looking things, its normal. and if u had a girl, she can have leaky boobs, white discharge or small bloody spots in her diaper allll completely normal.
there's much more but maybe what I have learned can help expecting mothers....
have a great day mommas!!!!

the one I'm using is a giant fisher price one that has a pocket specifically for wipes,pacifiers, bottles and a spot for a cell phone
any particular brand that you use and like ? @boothang869 im totally lost even when it comes to diaper bags lol
@seleneromanortiz12, I myself have 4 diaper bags, I use the biggest one at this time, lots of pockets, I feel with having a younger baby nb-3/4 months, you need lots of room for diapers, extra clothes, wipes, bottles, butt cream, formula (if u use it),
if you are someone that prefers to wear a back pack kinda thing, keep with space, you want lots of room.
my SIL has a 9 month old and keeps her regular diaper bag plus a drawstring bag with all his toys.
as they get older you can downsize the bag because you won't need as much but start with a large bag with lots of space and pockets/seperaters inside
any suggestions for what diaper bag I should purchase @boothang8695 not really sure what to look for in a diaper bag
@wyattsmommy91, @schevanya @seleneromanortiz12 @sexii_diiva @makeartnotwarr69 if y'all have any questions I can try to answer them

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
