After nearly 10 years of waiting, it finally happened for me on Monday. Today (Thursday) I will get out of bed for the first time, which is going to be painful. Tomorrow my bandages come off. It’s all a bit unreal for me still. I kinda thought I’d never reach this milestone. The easy part of lying unconscious is done, now for the deliberate work of recovery.


my tired and only very recently awake ass thought you gave birth to a girl and i was like hey yea congrats
and then i read the sub it was in
took a full ten sec
then i realised
congrats girl!!
I did think maybe I should post to trans joy but I saw a 196 post and the rule forced my hand 😔
Crosspost! If this isn’t also trans joy, I’ll eat my hat.
Why not just post it again? There’s enough joy in this moment to share :3
