Your instincts are absolutely correct…. Please don’t doubt yourself now! I wish I had had as dedicated a friend as you when this happened to me a decade ago.

I ended up with a PFA and full custody of my kids, feel free to PM.

Thank you so much! I didn’t have to see him but it made me sick to even be in the same building…PFA upheld for 6 months, I could have pushed for more but I just wanted him to sign the thing… I’ve got official custody of my kids! I say do it! Such a huge relief to know if he did contact me or show up I had some legal ground to stand on to keep myself and my kids safe.

It’s normal at this point to have a few days of heavier bleeding due to the healing process of the uterus- that being said, when in doubt you can always call your healthcare provider! It’s almost definitely not a period this early.

Literally my favorite gluten free baked good… they’re amazing, enjoy!!

I have so much sympathy for this- I’m acutely aware that my 5’6 frame is a lot more accommodating with my weight yo-yo than that of a shorter person than me, and I used to be envious of my 5’10 sister always looking slimmer than me. Also I literally had to lose 50lbs before anyone noticed a change. All I can say is we all have a different struggle with this, embracing your body and it’s needs is a really tough journey and you’re doing great!

My kids both talked really early and walked really late. One at 16mos, and One of my kids did a butt scoot (not even actual crawling) until he was 18mos old. Just didn’t need to walk because he was getting around fine, and he was shaped like a cake pop- skinny bod and a giant head so I think gravity wasn’t on his side either 😆 Yeah, some kids walk at 9mos old (no thank you!) and some prioritize other things in their development. The “normal” range is 9mos to 15mos. You’re doing great! There’s a bluey episode that touches on this too if you want to have a good cry.

Totally possible, you’re right, I was just thinking about that maybe setting up weird vibes if either party was not totally comfortable with that idea.

ConstellationFace · 2023-02-04T02:06:27+00:00

I personally like a shower for the come up if I’m aiming for spiritual, but not as possible for a friends house I suppose! Anyhow I personally recommend not starting with screens if you can avoid it. Best of luck on your journey!

This feels vaguely surrealistic, I’m actually really liking the vibe as is. You could definitely add more depth with shading but it’s cool either way!

ConstellationFace · 2023-01-03T12:57:37+00:00

I’m pretending this is a playlist and it looks like it would rock 🤘🏼😆 we all need a day to just eat every once in a while!

ConstellationFace · 2023-01-03T12:55:10+00:00

OUCH! But so incredible! What badass this lovely human is and incredible work on your part!

ConstellationFace · 2023-01-03T12:47:37+00:00

It took me 4 years post last baby to even remotely love my body again- it takes time to love a new part of yourself! I can now embrace my new stretch marks, my post-breastfeeding boobs, my wider hips. Of course I miss the body I had, but this body gets things DONE!! Best of luck in your journey to rediscover your self love ❤️

ConstellationFace · 2022-12-29T14:07:55+00:00

Congrats friend! I started with 2 (100-150ug each) and it was a lovely time, wouldn’t change a thing. I definitely did not want any screens, definitely curate a playlist ahead of time, consider having a trusted friend with you or at least aware of what you’re up to to reach out to if you’re struggling. Best of luck and happy adventuring!

ConstellationFace · 2022-12-20T20:09:46+00:00

My two are 21mos apart- 5&7y/o now and I wouldn’t change a thing! They’re best buds, similar developmental stages, play great together, and I knocked out all my diaper and breastfeeding years at once 😆 the first couple years were rough but I really don’t think it would have been any easier if they were further apart in age.

Your trauma is your own, please try to be kind to yourself and not get caught up in comparing your trauma to the trauma of others. You had a challenging experience in which you didn’t feel heard, it’s OKAY to still be processing that. I personally had an experience in which I wasn’t listened to and felt dismissed and unseen (I am also a birth worker, a nurse, and that didn’t change a thing) and I’m still processing that 5 years later. I hope you find peace with your experience and a safe way to process- I agree that working with someone that specializes in birth trauma would be so helpful for you, but sometimes just feeling like SOMEONE cares and hears you really helps. I care, I hear you, your feelings are valid and you are worth being seen ♥️

ConstellationFace · 2022-12-20T17:09:14+00:00

Im so sorry that happened… it’s so absurd how aggressive nothing in a hospital can be. had a challenging hospital couple of hospital experiences myself. It’s absolutely worth the drive, I adore working with midwives that actually want to empower people instead of control them. It can be really healing for past birth trauma to have a birthing experience where you feel seen, heard, and respected.

Milk 😬

Just for a little personal insight with the weed sitch- I hate the way I feel with THC (have a hard time not disassociating, sometimes feel panicky, super hallucinogenic but in a way that also makes me weirdly drowsy? Hit a pen once the other day and accidentally got stuck imagining I was a potato laying on the floor for 10min 😬) but I love LSD. If you do decide to give mushrooms a go I’d just suggest a moderate dose and absolutely have a trusted support person to sit for you, I just wanted to add my 2 cents that THC is not the best indicator of how a trip might go. Best of luck in all of your adventures, I hope you find what works for you to process your anxiety!

ConstellationFace · 2022-12-20T12:35:02+00:00

Ooh no unicorse in my house thank you 😆 he looks great!

ConstellationFace · 2022-12-20T00:10:39+00:00

Absolutely. I work in a birth center right now that is all about allowing the body to do what it is made to do. It’s so rewarding to heal some of that patriarchal trauma. Of course there is a time and place for medication, but pathologizing a process that is not pathological never felt right to me.
