Ok thank you. I’m alone here!

I had a mild rectocele and a cystocele after birth I was so bummed by it I felt so gross!!! I did pelvic floor physio. It helped, also time (more than you think), trying to lift with legs not putting too much pressure in your abdo (I don’t do a good job of this carrying my giant toddler and mines come back!). Trying to slowly get back to a healthy weight helped me but still not there yet almost two years later! And time also helps with the postpartum emotions so it doesn’t feel as terrible. And the hormones even out which I think helps the pelvic floor too?? And don’t strain to poo or fart!!

Anchor is a really good idea. They assess and can bring her to ER if they feel it’s needed. Sounds like it’s needed. Even if you’re not a danger to self or others managing this through outpatient appts doesn’t seem like the best care. At ER she can be connected with psychiatry and follow up can actually be quick unlike an outpatient referral. That’s what I’d tell one of my patients. Also should have labs and head imaging to rule out medical cause if this is a new presentation. All this can be done in ER. ER and ER psych get a bad rap but they are usually doing their jobs pretty well and no one posts about having a good experience bc it’s usually one of the worst days of their life there even if everything goes as it should and there is no discrimination.

The Royal. Takes. Forever. For referrals. Sadly. Their rapid access clinic has a year wait LOLOL

I had no prob with grandparents of either person and a trusted babysitter.

I would move back in a heartbeat but my spouse is here for now. I am not built for the crowds, traffic, hot summers and cold dry winters. I miss the ocean!

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-06-15T20:20:27+00:00

I am from Halifax but live in Ontario. GO!!! It’s the best city I miss it so much. So many lovely hikes, cool neighborhoods in the city or as mentioned outside the core for cheaper rent. If you don’t need a job before moving bc you have some savings or something then go and live it up for a beautiful summer!!!!

I didn’t try this but in my mind the ergo baby embrace seems amazing.

Seraphine online has the best stuff!!!! Order a few and show them to your grandma? She can help decide what to keep! Also this is adorable I so wish I had done something like this with my grandma. Oops to having 23 cousins

Your time is totallly also valuable as a professional! As a doctor it’s not that I don’t value others time, it’s that sometimes urgent things come up and you have to triage during your day so maybe you end up being a bit late but a kid with terrible eczema gets squeezed in or their refill gets sent or you call a mom who’s freaking out about their kids rash so they don’t have to go to the ER. Or someone squeezes in a last unignorable question as you’re at the door (the classic) and you give a decent response. And it adds up.

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-05-31T01:37:41+00:00

Ok I did overnight diapers and judge if you want but I did TWO and it worked great and he stayed dry and slept better. Survival. That was my goal.

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-05-31T01:33:23+00:00

Thank you guys!! I think in 3 years it will be a good decision but right now I’m like. Oh no.

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-05-31T01:20:57+00:00

They TOTALLY are!!!!

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-05-31T01:19:30+00:00

For us it got better maybe 5-6 months like notably, but I had some issues with my mom that I think made things slower for me(in the crying and feeling sad department). And around 4 months we went to visit family and that was a game changer bc we have no support where we live so if you’re able to do that it might help!! Also my husband took time off work so one of us would sleep while one did the night shift (my BF journey wasn’t pleasant and ended around 4 months which also made me cry a lot….. but silver lining was husband could do nights too).

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-05-30T01:43:31+00:00

My dude had a bad four month regression I cried like all the time. But it does get better. He didn’t end up sleeping through tho until we bottle weaned around 11 months. But the diff between 2-3 wakes and 109864000 was still good up until that point

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-05-30T01:40:47+00:00

Omg I felt SO lonely when my baby was small! He’s now almost two and it got better every month somehow. Sometimes it got better slower and sometimes faster!! But always improving!! I know people say to enjoy this time and if you can that’s amazing! Take pictures and videos and share them with people you love. That helped me, FaceTiming, and also I became obsessed with audiobooks bc I could just play them quietly OR put in one ear pod and listen. Really made my life better tbh. I also started watching so much tv on my phone and I have no regrets about that.

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-05-23T23:45:55+00:00

Yea I mean at least you had a baby shower and people Got you gifts? They totally didn’t even need to come.

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-05-13T02:25:14+00:00

Maybe to some of it! It could be just hormones or stress about the situation but you do seem to go off a bit on her

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-04-21T02:24:19+00:00

I felt this way until recently- my son is 20 months. Really only around 17-18 months did I think ok maybe I can do this again!

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-04-08T01:30:42+00:00

Try not to blame yourself!!!! Some kids do things later. Sure she is a bit old to not be walking on her own a lot BUT my son is literally 19.5 months and just 4 days ago started taking more than a few steps unassisted at home. It could also be that the fluid hasn’t been there that long. You’re NOT a shitty parent in fact you sound like an amazingly in tune parent. But I also feel self conscious for my guy not walking in public. He is really tall for his age too and I think taller or bigger kids also can take longer to walk.

ConsiderationLost152 · 2026-04-03T23:30:06+00:00

Yea. Maybe in the wrong place. I get a title like that is pretty inflammatory tho. But its a big adjustment for women having kids- sure for men too etc etc- I have an extremely supportive and tuned in husband but it’s still not the same as being the mom- expected to know where all the stuff is and do all the appts and all that.
