TMI post:- how many ladies on here had tears & an episiotomy & how long did it take to heal? Feeling quite sharp & itchy down there 😩
I had a second degree tear and a few stitches! I literally felt so sore and as if my fanny was going to fall out whenever I walked! I say on the side of my bum all the time because it hurt that much! But it does heal very suddenly! I woke up one day and thought wow I can do things! I think it took just under 2 weeks! Xx
@emilyb_c, yeah your labour sounds remarkably like mine sweety! Recovery is a bit of a bore but you'll get through it :) @laa286 one stitch? Amazing!
I only had one stitch this time......with only gas and air (no best experience even though only one!) it dissolved about a week ago and back to normal since so think everyone's body is different but I find its all of sudden that you think "oh I feel better down there" lol. I know my boy has grown loads already and with already having 4 now probably my last so want him to slow down! xx
@laa286, geez! I can't wait to feel normal again but I don't want my little man to get older! 😩 xx
@may23, I had an epidural due to a very complicated labour so i didn't feel a thing :) it's just little sore when you get the feeling back. Worth it though! X
I was cut twice with my first and I think it was about 2-3 weeks. after stitches dissolve it begins to feel alot better. well that's what I found 😆 xx
I know it is horrible. I found it difficult sitting down and it does feel prickly and uncomfortable. The only thing I can say is. Having my little girl made it all worth while as I am sure you feel with Max and it does get better.. I know that doesn't really help right now when you are in so much discomfort but I am pregnant again and all is now healed xx
Fourth? Geez! I got a second degree tear. I didn't get soap but i got a lot of painkillers. I just want to feel normal again :( 4th trimester sucks! X
Yes I had a 4th degree tear and it took quite a few weeks to heal. It feels very uncomfortable for a while.. Mine was a very bad tear so dependent on the severity of yours it may heal quicker. Did they give you soap and painkillers? x
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...
How old?
How old were you when you lost your virginity?
I find it pretty hilarious how people who have shown their true colors on social media snake away, delete the posts that outed them and come back on social media like nothing happened. Why do that, you outed yourself, so stay out. We still see you boo boo...

How long is your hair?
