iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

I was taken directly to surgery too, at that point I'd completely disassociated. I lost reality at some point in the last few pushes because of what had/was happening and have very spotty memory for the hours following, which is additional trauma in itself.

Trauma? Well here's also a whole person to keep alive ✨️

I was offered a c section after I was taken to birthing for decreased fetal movement because they anticipated a chance of some complications, I said no, if I go back I'm having the C, a fast labour makes that harder 😭😭😭

Literally happened multiple times now that someone who knows I had a traumatic birth just asks when I'm having another baby. Like??? Can you at least wait until the stitches are dissolved to ask lmao.

Its super wild that everyone person in this world was birthed and many births have traumatic experiences like mine and society just expects you to pick yourself up and move on from it immediately.

They keep saying "your labour was really short for your first time so at least your next will be faster" 😭😭 Like I'm so glad I get to do trauma faster next time I guess?

Yeah when the midwife said that I was like... I already had a traumatic birth. You're not selling me on coming back for more 😅

When the Maternal Child Healthcare Nurse opens your file, sees what happened to you during birth and just goes.. "oh you poor thing" 🥲🥲

There's many things they don't tell you about pregnancy, birth and post-partum unless you seek the information yourself. But even after reading about it myself and why it happens, the breastfeeding uterus contractions? Absolutely unfair. Like what the fuck.

It was a wee bit traumatic with how it went down but we are both healthy now and that's the important part!

Children do not “belong to parents”. Children are not property. They are people with rights and parents and guardians are responsible for upholding those rights

I've been making this joke non-stop, I joked to everyone last month that I've served baby 30 days notice of eviction, and all this week I've been saying "I'm gonna have to take this baby to VCAT smh"

This baby is fully prepared to overstay their welcome inside me and ya know what? Based. The world sucks I wouldn't want to come outside either.

A doctor’s opinion piece ignores the ongoing dismissal of women’s pain, mis-characterises the historical failure to study all aspects of women’s bodies, hormones, healthcare & medication effects, & mansplains why medical ‘misogyny’ is the ‘wrong’ term for it! Pfft. www.theage.com.au/national/doc...

Doctors don’t hate women, but we can be idiots

I’m not a misogynist. But it’s fair to say that medicine doesn’t understand women as well as it should.

I have made videos about how anti-intellectualism is impacting media literacy, the answer to combat anti-intellectualism is not act superior and is not to declare that every hobby that someone is doing for fun *must* be intellectual.

Teenagers who think that they're superior for exclusively reading classic literature are mad at me on twitter. I got A's at school reading and analysing literature and then would go home and read Vampire Academy. Being pretentious will not make people enjoy literature.

Wonder how long it will take for people to use the CEO shooting as part of their campaign against bike lines.

I've had him for nearly 7 years now! I don't post him much though, which honestly I should post him more because he's the sweetest and loveliest pup.

The wait for labour to start is too long and I'm too impatient (meanwhile I'm only in my 37th week so likely have a couple weeks to go 😭😭)
