A little over 12 hours ago, we said hello to a tiny man with a lot of hair and perfect lips. He came into the world without too much trouble and we're all recovering well.

Christianity be like, "That's evil! Don't spend time thinking about that!" Also, "Let's talk about this dead guy. Also you'll burn in hell."

That awkward moment when the Bridgerton season 3 part 2 release date is the same day as your social security hearing and the count down is actually not helpful. 😅

[Blue Musings @BlueMusings309]

This is never not accurate.

"Everyone here is great! You're going to love them!" is probably one of the biggest red flags I hear in health care settings. Unless you have personally been in their care, don't even set the expectation.

Isolation is hard enough when you're alone, but it's so much worse when you aren't. Be thoughtful of your friends with children, if you want them around after they have them.

My 4 month old took over a hour to settle down to sleep. We bathed, fed, and rocked him. We played his lullabies. Nothing was settling him enough to sleep.... Until I put on my birth playlist, and Riot by @threedaysgrace came on. He was asleep after about 10 minutes. 😅

It's sad to have people in your life, who you love, who are bothered when you want boundaries. If a person doesn't want to love you with boundaries, that's not love. That's exploitation.

#ChronicPain is like having a small child, that only you can hear, screaming at you until you hit your breaking point.

I don't care how cool you think you are. When High School Musical comes on. You pay it the respect it deserves. 😂

I don't know who needs to hear this, but don't let people talk you out of medical decisions that you think are best for yourself. It's best to collaborate with your provider, but at the end of the day, it's your health. Do what is best for you.

Social anxiety can be debilitating. Social interactions are a need for everyone. But then socializing causes an overwhelming feeling of regret, self-hatred, confusion, and overall discomfort from attempting to meet those needs.

I had to advocate for myself today. It took really practicing what I preach, and it meant being uncomfortable. I shouldn't be in this position. But I'm hoping things can start to improve because I stood up for my needs.

OK, but why do we get harder on people who are having a hard time? Make that make sense.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

I love this perspective!

@BlueMusings309 That's the problem with balance. We don't navigate intuitively through the neuronormative world, but by trying to figure out what the rules are, not understanding how fluid they can be. So we often fall into the trap of under- or overdoing it & decide not to do it at all.

[Blue Musings @BlueMusings309]

We live in a world where you get shamed for posting too much on social media. Then there comes a point where you stop being comfortable sharing yourself. So eventually you stop even being able to do it at all. Anyone else relate?

I wish we had higher standards for postpartum care, especially when it comes to supporting the birthing parent. It shouldn't be expected and "normal" to be injured during birth.

Is anyone else's search feature not working?

When you experience #ChronicIllness, your life is a constant practice of processing grief and loss. If you don't, you will become bogged down by the disappointment that comes when wanting to accomplish something, but your body does not allow it.
