  • Do I Look Different? I Think I Hid It Well

    So I wore a tight dress for the first time with my insulin pump😛. I usually don’t do tight dresses as my pump always sticks out and makes me feel ‘different’ but I think I hid it pretty well 💉📟👗. I like that no one can see how many illnesses I have( most people don’t know I even have half of them including family) that way I know I’m doing something right.

    I am living with it and being strong and to be honest now I think I feel a lot more confident and proud of all of my invisible illnesses and how far I have come, so if someone did see my pump and give me ‘that look’ then 🤷🏻‍♀️ who cares right? I’m a fighter, I’m a survivor and I’m going to rock it.

    Still like to look nice in a tight dress though so If anyone has any tips I’m keen to hear them 😉

  • Stop Asking For The Daddy Stitch After Birth

    A week before I gave birth to my first baby, my mother told me her story. After she gave birth to me, her doctor had joked with my father about “putting in an extra stitch” for him while sewing her up.

    She had just delivered vaginally, and she knew the joke meant one thing: a tighter fit for sex after the healing process. My mother was appalled and embarrassed. “I couldn’t believe your father let the doctor say that in front of me,” she said. Sadly, my mother isn’t the only woman who’s told me she’s heard this joke. The “extra stitch for daddy,” or “daddy stitch,” joke is awful, and we need to stop making it.

    Stop Asking For The Daddy Stitch After Birth

    There is always truth in comedy, and I’m sorry to say that the “daddy stitch” is not an urban legend. It’s commonly called “the husband stitch” and was originally conceptualized in the 1950s as a way to “tighten things up” after repairing episiotomies, which were routine back then. Dr. Robert Barbieri, chair of obstetrics and gynaecology at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, told the Huffington Post, “What they thought is that if they did a routine episiotomy, they’d have a chance to repair it and that during the repair, they could actually create a better perineum than if they hadn’t done it. The idea [was] that we could ‘tighten things up.’”

    Were you told this “joke”, would your husband or partner say something?

    The last thing you want to hear after giving birth is a joke about making your vagina tighter, the stitch actually makes i harder  more painful for the woman, so te woman is less likely to want to have sex with her partner anyway.

    Pelvic floor exercises should help to put things back to how they were without causing unnecessary pain.

    So doctors and partners listen up, stop being so damn crude and support the woman so Stop Asking For The Daddy Stitch After Birth .
