my mum told me today that after she'd had my brother they didnt expell all of the placenta and she was having like ten showers a day confused why she stunk so bad, they found out they'd left a part of the placenta in and it had all died inside her, eww eww eww!!
off topic but your mum was lucky she's ok! this is the reason that so many women used to die after childbirth, they didnt really understand about placenta so often it would stay in there and actually kill the mother!
your 8 month one looks great hun.. Hope i look that good after.
Love the tats too
