This wouldn't surprise me, even though postpartum you're supposed to wait 6 weeks and be cleared by the obgyn to have sex. We all know Alex doesn't listen to doctors recommendations, she will just claim they're "ableist" and never told her anyways.
Granted, I don’t have a goblin body and I have never had a kid yoinked out my sunroof. But I have heard that women who have C sections bleed less, although that doesn’t negate the whole “dinner plate wound” thing.
From what I understand, even with a C-section, the removal of the placenta from the c-section still causes a large amount of bleeding down through the cervix and out the vagina, just like a vaginal birth. The uterus will then occasionally contract and cramp, pushing out more contents as it shrinks down in size over the next few weeks. Alex is down right bonkers for going clubbing right after a c-section, let alone birth. Id be horrified if she was trying to get some dick right now either.
I'm not.
It's her SMA medicine, really fancy, expensive stuff.
I think she takes infusions, not pills. They don't know much about full side effects like what it does to fetuses so who knows if they know if alcohol messes with it.
Lolol thank you for answering my kinda drunk questions and god damn I’m glad the farms is back. I hate that she calls it her twerk juice. Maybe just because I am horrified at her 100% of the time.
Your mileage will vary on that.
To be fair, it's not like she moves a lot either way.
I'd be concerned about blood clots. She had major surgery not too long ago and isn't able to move around much. Going to a club and drinking seems to be the exact opposite thing of what you should do in her situation.
It probably depends on the woman, but at the time of birth, for a vaginal birth, the average blood loss is about 400ml (a bit less than a pint). For a c-section, it's about twice that, because there's the blood loss from the incision AND the placenta wound, and if the woman was not in labor beforehand, the uterus does not naturally shrink down the way it does with a natural birth.
It’s really more the fact that she exposed her addict baby daddy to an environment that could potentially lead to relapse literally days after he was spit out of his latest round of rehab. Additionally, a club is a dirty place. She’s going to the nicu to visit Ari, and I very highly doubt she cleaned her chair before heading back to the nicu. It also just looks extremely bad. She’s under more of a microscope than most parents by virtue of the scrutiny she invites online, and to be partying while her daughter fights for her life in the hospital is very tacky.
Isn't Squidgy Hitler going to a club like... squidgy Hitler's choice though? Given the lives he was doing before he went back to Chicago it doesn't seem like she's leading him down a path he wasn't already on. He's as much of an approximation of a grown adult as she is, legally. And multiple posters here are clutching pearls at the idea of her drinking while Ari is in NICU, but as far as I can tell that's just an assumption we've all made and run with, that picture definitely doesn't show her holding alcohol.
I personally feel like it's in poor taste regardless of whether there was alcohol consumption. He wasn't there for his daughter's birth, because he was in rehab; To "hit the club" days after his return, is a bit of a brow raise.
It's absolutely a brow raise... Which was sort of my point. She's giving us plenty of provable retarded, poorly-thought-out behaviour to mock and criticise so we don't really need to be condemning her for things she isn't actually doing...
Alex is a passive viewer in life. It would get so boring to look at things and people and be unable to interact with it in any meaningful way. Ari doesn't really get anything out of Alex that she can't get better from her familiar NICU nurses.
Yes, he should bear majority of that responsibility, but Alex bears some too since she has chosen to be his significant other. Choosing to be the SO of an addict usually means avoiding enabling or encouraging them to have any excuses to relapse at all, and especially not in a way that presents them that option on a silver platter the way Alex did. She is his "other half", so to speak, to deny that she has massive amounts of influence over someone who has severely impaired impulse control as they are fresh out of rehab would be a mistake. I think it's less that she should feel totally responsible and more that she is willfully ignorant and in denial of her complete irresponsibility.
