I hate mixed emotions. So during labor, I ended up with a bunch of stitches. All the staff was surprised on how bad I tore (through a vein too). So after all the swelling went down and I felt like I could move normally again, my husband and I have been struggling to wait the 6 weeks. So last night we decided if we were genial and used plenty of lube that we should be good since it’s been over 4 weeks. So I lubed myself and finally was brave enough to feel around inside. I was surprised on how many stitches I still have. I was on top to set the pace and I can’t really describe how it felt. We were interrupted by crying after about a minute. After she was settled down again, hubby and I talked about it and I told him how I still want to but I don’t think it will happen with the stitches. He is so loving, understanding and supportive but I still can’t help but be emotional about everything. I can’t really explain how I feel. I want to try again and really soon but I’m not feeling great about still having so many stitches still. I’m embracing my physical changes yet I feel extremely judge when I receive a compliment. Long side story short but it turns out you can produce more milk than your body can keep up with nutritionally so now I’m watching every bite (another long side story short, events while in the hospital led me to feeling like a failure at breast feeding my baby so now I pump and feel like I need a large back up supply and I’m hoping to pump enough so I can stop pumping while she can still eat). I felt like I just needed to tell someone. I don’t feel depressed, I just needed to express myself

@mothermother, thanks. Mine never rated it. Just said I tore a lot and had a tear down the side that also tore a vein and that he had to use a lot of stitches. I’m enjoying being a mom and everything with it. But I guess I can’t help but want to have something that didn’t change like sex.
Your not alone I got a lot of stitches too the doctor tried to say on a scale 1-4 the damage was a 1. But I know she was just trying to make me feel better because I can feel them. And they feel like a lot and it feels pretty bad. It's okay, this too shall pass 🤗 @emilyinsd

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...
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
