I was such a doofus when I was pregnant and thought that if women have a vaginal birth, then they have the rest of their years to pee themselves whenever laughing, sneezing, and breathing. Then I had an emergency c-section and found that despite that, my bladder control is a lot to be desired.
This morning:
The hummingbird (age 3): Mommy, what’s this?
Me: That’s a pad.
Hummingbird: Why? I want to wear it.
Me: Because mommy pees herself sometimes.
Hummingbird: Can I put one on?
Me: No sweetie, you don’t need that for a while.
Hummingbird: Why do you have them?
Me: I already told you, mommy pees herself sometimes.
Hummingbird: Why?
Me: Because a few years ago you were in mommy’s belly and after mommy had you, my vagina got large.
Hummingbird: Your bagina got large?
Me: Yep.
omg. that is hilarious. bagina. i love it. http://monica-adayinthelife.blogspot.com/2012/04/pa-gina-dialogue.html my girl 3 says, “pagina” which led to the pagina dialogue. ;o) hope you are recovering? hugs!

I just had my second child, and my 2 year old kept asking why I was bleeding so much. She had quite the child birth lesson. She told me that she also had stitches on her vagina.

Yeah, soon after my wife and I began to cohabit, some pads were placed in the shopping cart.
“Didn’t you buy these last week? And the week before?” I asked like slackjawed and wide-eyed newb I am.
“Yeah,” she replied. “You’ve got a lot to learn, buddy…”
But… you don’t pee out of your vagina. Huh.
But saying vagina is much more fun.
