Hi everyone! Me & and the little new human are doing great! Will update when I'm a less exhausted. Wild ride. Most simultaneously wonderful & terrifying experience of my life. ♥️♥️♥️

@ashleygwinter We just had our 5th, and we’re _really_ leaning into mom recovery.

Minimal visitors, no “bouncing back”. Rest and recovery.

I think our culture puts too much pressure on women shrugging off a life-threatening experience. Having a kid is a lot. Please take care of yourself. Hope all goes well.

@bgross @ashleygwinter As retired Labor and Delivery and Maternity nurse I think this is the smartest thing I've read all day! Yay for you and taking care of what's really important.
@SharmaineMarie @ashleygwinter I mean, it’s really all my wife… I just have the Mastodon account, 😁
