Sounds like you had a lucky escape from the first guy. Its good to have a some fun while you find the right person x
Definitely!!! I was young and didn’t realise what he was really like. It was really sudden, I woke up one day and just thought I can’t do this. He tried to manipulate me back loads of times but I was stubborn. I saw him not so long ago at soft play. I wanted to die 😭😭😭

He sounds like a prick and I'm glad you saw it in time ❤

Sorry LO had just thrown up all over himself in his bed so just had to go and sort that out... another reason why 🤣

Honestly thank you so much girls!!


He is super supportive, he is the sweetest man i have ever known, he makes jokes all the time that he'd wait forever for me as he still thinks he's lucky he has me, which i tell him is stupid and to stop being so soppy!!!


Honestly thats exactly it, because i dont feel the same as before with all the additional surgery and still issues ive had afterwards, plus he was the one helping with dressings and listening to me talk about it all, its not like i feel sexy anymore! He is so understanding and i feel like i am almost ready but its just taken that bit of time


So i had to see a specialist for like 6 months post baby and they gave me the all clear, i have 2 other friends who have gone through the same, i think its that worry that the scar tissue will really hurt and then it will put me off, but i feel like i am almost in the right mindset!!

@strawberrysunshine_x @rasperryripple @Starttheline thank you mama's for making me feel slightly normal!!

Its so nice to have this platform to talk ❤
I’ve had counselling on intimacy and one of the most important things to anyone who’s had trauma is understanding that actual penetration isn’t everything.
i could talk about this for hours, because I’ve learnt so much, but it’s really important you carry on talking.
We set date nights etc (even if it was just to sit at home without phones) or making a nice tea and made the night cosy so we were just being a couple - when the expectation of actually having sex goes, it makes it a lot easier to have sex


That last one kinda ruins it 🤣🤣🤣 the man coughing. But the rest are beaut. I actually love him. Even his belly button is perfect.
“The man” 🙄🤣

Right, the crush. You get the cons first so you don't get your hopes up.

We work together closely enough that it'd probably be a problem.
He's not my boss but he is a level above me in the hierarchy so potentially mild power dynamics ickiness.
He's a real outdoorsy active type which obviously I'm not.
Extroverted and sociable and has a million friends, which, if we're being truly honest, simply wouldn't work with my whole weirdo loner vibes. Realistically, would be exhausting.
Taller than me but only just. I'm not convinced VAR would notice the difference. Inevitably I would feel like a big clomping monster.
I belong alone and am OK with that.

And then the pros, so you get where I'm coming from.

Fit. Not like bae-gorgeous (who is?) but fit in a grinning puppy-dog kind of way.
An actual adult man who mows the lawn and puts up shelves and doesn't need looking after. Emotionally stable in a way men I'm attracted to generally tend not to be.
Properly warm and friendly. Remembers little comments about your life or family and asks engaging follow-up questions next time he sees you. Loves a "what's for tea?" chat.
Really clever and knowledgeable but wears it lightly, helps me if I ask him to but never assumes I won't understand something. No ego - asks me for help when he thinks I know better.
Hilarious in just the way I like. Thinks of a pun and has to let me know about it, then waits eagerly to find out if I can do a better one.
I’m team crush 🥰🥰

obsessed with the pun thing

Me and RLF had a little break when I decided if he wasn’t going to marry me then I didn’t see the point in being together (I was young and dramatic) and I had a colleagues shoulder to cry on… we hooked up a few times and that was that. Even now i work with him a few times a month and he’s still the nicest person. I even went to his wedding earlier in the year
when I just started my job there was a guy I knew there who had been trying to get with me for agessss. We had the same circle of friends etc but he was a serious fucking player so I kept saying no. Fast forward Xmas do whaf did I do … went home with him. He has the biggest Willy I’ve ever seen to this day 😂😂😂 we’re still friends now ! He has just bought a house with his gf & I obvs have a baby and a fella.we never told anyone it happened and I don’t even think we discussed it. Was just a drunken fumble that proved where better off as buddies Not sure why I still call my three year old a baby 🙈🥹

The Colonel will never shut for anything ever again. I would not be surprised if Christmas Day trading is in the future.

Awww he sounds lovely. I met my fella at work. I was a bit skeptical at first because of working together and it going wrong but we have lasted. We got on as friends really well first a bit like you and your work pal. I’d say go for it if it comes up but don’t force it. Can you get drunk at the Xmas do and shag him and go from there 🤣🙈. Joking that’s terrible advice

it's so common, please don't feel embarrassed. I think we all have a higher sex drive before babies, now half the time I literally cannot be bothered. I'm so tired, I'm so over being clung on to, sleep is the only time I truly get to myself so it is precious (and even then I've got RLF/LO/dog on my pillow).

We didn't have sex for 6 months after I had LO. I just couldn't face it. It was fine after, no different to before, but I was really lucky and had a straightforward birth and a tear that healed well, that totally isn't the case for a lot of people. I don't feel like myself, 3 years later, I'm certainly lumpier and bumpier but I try to ignore those feelings in the moment.

Totally totally normal ❤
you have summed up my life really. I either have a three year old attached to me or the dog wants to cuddle up to my fella 🙈 we rarely get time together but we get by and it makes it extra special when we do 😁. I’m not bothered If we don’t have sex but it’s nice to do it at the same time 🤣. Between work and a toddler were both worn out and Don’t always Have the energy and that’s ok. Also in so self conscious cos I used to be really slim & now I’m not. And I also feel haggard 🤣 I’m only 27🤨

Morning darlings.

5 hours sleep for me, with my standard 2-hour awake period in the middle because I am bloody useless.

Please send positivity to get me through the day.

Or this one. Look at his face 🥰

What do you think he's telling these two? Probably how excited he is about the orgy, right?

I'm going to try to get some sleep soon, this is my reminder to all those in time zones where this is relevant - go to bed when you can, baby, and take care of yourself.

@cobette safe travels, have the loveliest time and remember to update us when you can ❤
