The idea of wearing any kind of pad makes me really uncomfortable. I had to wear pads for a few days after my D&C and I hated every second of it. Diva Cup all the way. I don't know what I'm going to do when this baby comes out. I hear there are pads...and...big underwear?
Yes you have to wear the jumbo pads for capacity and can't use internal products do to infection and Ouchie.
I swear the pad will be the least of your discomforts at the time.
That doesn't sound encouraging but it is the truth.
Okay well since you're all forcing me into knowing what's about to happen to me (jerks!), you might as well tell me all of it.
What's going to come out? (Besides the baby and placenta, obv). Just blood? How much? For how long? Like a period, or for like a whole week, or what? Will shit just be dripping out of there for 6 weeks??
I'll spoiler it

My friend who just had a baby, myself, and my 11 week pregnant friend had dinner the other night and we grossed out our newly pregnant friend pretty quickly lol.

I highly recommend EMAB momma bottom balm to help with those unwanted fiends
I'm kind of freaking out a bit. I've gained 5lbs in 3 weeks. I feel like this might be too fast? I haven't changed my eating habits, which are pretty heathy. Nor have I upped my calorie intake.
How do I slow this down?!
I wouldn't worry. Some weeks I gain a lot some weeks I don't gain anything. 5lbs in 3 weeks isn't totally crazy amount to gain anyways.
Ok, I know I'm being ridiculous. It's just the first few pounds I've gained and I'm just like noooooo!
Gross. My midwife said this might start happening soon.
First pregnancy, it was 20-24 weeks. I needed nursing pads through delivery. This time, it's there but not noticeable unless I touch at 28+.
I could always hand express some after I dried up. There was point, over 12 months PP, I was able to get half an ounce out despite never breastfeeding. Glamorous. So glamorous

Soooo...does that ruin, um...sexy time? Forever? Like they're off limits to H now?

You have baby, placenta, blood and possible clots, the bloody show and your water are pre-baby
You'll be bleeding for anywhere from a week to 6-8 weeks. Remember how you don't have a period for 9ish months? Your body remembers, too, and it becomes payback time 😒
When you're in the hospital, they'll "massage" your uterus to encourage clots to break loose (supposedly that's why...). These are not massages.. they may also look down your pants to see if you pass any clots and to check out any hemorrhoids 😭
The placenta felt like a giant fucking slug coming out of my vagina. Grossest feeling ever
I don't even remember feeling the placenta come out. I was too busy crying happy tears and cuddling DS.

akraus2015 it certainly made it interesting. I had to wear a bra + pads to have sex or we both just ended up in a puddle of breast milk. (Post-partum). Nothing screams oh baby like spraying your man down with milk. *facepalm*

I won't take my tank top off for sex. DNW milk everywhere.

I have always been totally freaked out by the idea of a naval ring (what if it gets caught on something??? gahhhh!) but the whole digging around to see if the hole is still open using a paper clip thing ahs brought me to a whole new level of horror.
That's why I had to take it out, I kept getting it stuck on tables and such because I forgot how much much stomach jutted out now
I would have taken my navel ring out if H had told me it was trashy...to stab him with, before I sanitized it and put it back in.
I got my tongue pierced when I was underage too. I was drunk and my friends thought it'd be funny. I took it out when I was 20. My parents still don't know I had it or they just chose to ignore it.
I got my tongue and belly button pierced on my 18th birthday. I was allergic to both. The belly button got super infected and I took it out. My tongue swelled up so bad and I choked on my own vomit and almost killed myself trying to get it out. My boyfriend (now H) had to unscrew it with plyers.

Mine aren't. He just knows to not touch the nipple area or to squeeze too hard. There's not much that's TMI/gross for us though seeing as he has seen me push out a human and poop in the process 🤢
