She chose some absolute bangers 😭

Iconic choice honestly

The downside of my friend choosing Pink Pony Club as her final song for her funeral is that now I'm crying at the supermarket because it's playing over the speakers.

On the 3rd of May I'm voting for the Maugean Skate.

She was my age too, 2 months older, it's so hard

Today I said farewell to a great friend, taken by cancer far too young and far too fast. Grief is such an impossible feeling. Look after each other in this life, it's the only thing that really matters 💜

Going to miss how thick pregnancy made my usually thin hair once it starts to fall out 😭

Lil bro said "that's what I think so stick it up your ass" he wasn't doing comedy he was dead serious and is only apologising (if you can call it that) because his vile misogyny went viral.

Recovering from food poisoning whilst breastfeeding a 2 month old.... 😭😭

💜💜💜💜

I was taken directly to surgery too, at that point I'd completely disassociated. I lost reality at some point in the last few pushes because of what had/was happening and have very spotty memory for the hours following, which is additional trauma in itself.

Trauma? Well here's also a whole person to keep alive ✨️

I am very much 💜

I was offered a c section after I was taken to birthing for decreased fetal movement because they anticipated a chance of some complications, I said no, if I go back I'm having the C, a fast labour makes that harder 😭😭😭

Literally happened multiple times now that someone who knows I had a traumatic birth just asks when I'm having another baby. Like??? Can you at least wait until the stitches are dissolved to ask lmao.

Its super wild that everyone person in this world was birthed and many births have traumatic experiences like mine and society just expects you to pick yourself up and move on from it immediately.

They keep saying "your labour was really short for your first time so at least your next will be faster" 😭😭

Like I'm so glad I get to do trauma faster next time I guess?

Yeah when the midwife said that I was like... I already had a traumatic birth. You're not selling me on coming back for more 😅

When the Maternal Child Healthcare Nurse opens your file, sees what happened to you during birth and just goes.. "oh you poor thing" 🥲🥲

Never been more grateful for adult nappies

There's many things they don't tell you about pregnancy, birth and post-partum unless you seek the information yourself. But even after reading about it myself and why it happens, the breastfeeding uterus contractions? Absolutely unfair. Like what the fuck.

💜💜 thank you (and your books) so much

I don't want my kid to hate me ahhaha

Yes this was my first baby!

It was a wee bit traumatic with how it went down but we are both healthy now and that's the important part!

Gave birth, that shits rough bro.

Children do not “belong to parents”. Children are not property. They are people with rights and parents and guardians are responsible for upholding those rights

Oh to be a dog PT 3

Very much hoping baby doesn't stay until Christmas, don't want to spend it in the hospital haha
