The fact that I am still dealing with lochia just seems wrong and it's driving me crazy. It's not fair that my body only knows that I gave birth and no the fact that he didn't come home with me. I need this to end soon or I don't know what I'm going to do.
That's all for today's vent. Thank you.

Ditto!
Dealing with the lochia and super engorged breasts (that did leak..ugh!) and having to deal with them leaking every once in awhile (OB said it could continue for months when something triggers it - awesome!) and constantly seeing my linea nigra...
So many PHYSICAL reminders, sometimes I want my body back, then other times I love being reminded that my children were a part of me. It's such a double-edged sword...
just a suggestion... I lost a niece due to complications in the delivery room just this past weekend and my sister has decided to pump a couple times a day to alleviate some pain and to help with some weight loss. so sorry for your loss =(

If she's looking for something to do with the milk, I was able to find a nice family to donate to through Eats on Feets who had just adopted a newborn and were looking for milk. It was helpful to me in my grieving process to be able to help others as much as I could in her name.
I also saved a bag for myself so I could do this: https://www.etsy.com/shop/MommyMilk?section_id=11439999&page=2
