Rec'd on 😃 25+ babes (gender neutral) out there - when did u notice ur face change and how did u react?
26, then more at 28
the first change happened after I got all my wisdom teeth taken out at once (cheeks weren’t as aggressively round anymore), but then the next major change happened after giving birth to my second child, developing PPA, and the pandemic starting a year later. I’m happy to look like I’ve lived more life and don’t mind the grey hair coming in or the laugh lines, but it’s definitely hard not to feel like it would be great if my face didn’t so clearly look like it had Seen Some Shit™ compared to before 🥴

#1: What's PPA?? And #2: I'm getting my wisdom teeth out sometime in the near future but omg I totally didn't realize that ur face could change after that 😭😭 But I think u should take pride in the fact that u've lived and experienced life!! Even tho u have seen some shit, it makes for great life lore ✋🏾✋🏾

thewarblerette sorry PPA = postpartum anxiety. 😅 & I have no idea if everyone’s face changes after wisdom teeth removal, I’m guessing it depends where they are? Mine were all going outwards into my cheeks so getting them out finally gave me a more “normal” face shape lol. You’ll be gorgeous either way!! ❤️

i noticed my first grey hair about 4 years ago
my knees now ache regularly.
I’m more sentimental about things and have began documenting a lot more of my life - photo albums/scrapbooking, journaling, keeping lil objects, etc.
I’m obsessive about the quality of my sleep.
my body is screaming that I’m running out of time to reproduce, despite having no actual desire for children.
I see through the bullshit, no longer fit the naive category.

found my first grey hair
some people may freak out, but to me it's just a sign that I'm experiencing the privilege that is aging (not to say that I'm old or something lol). but when I look at "imperfections" like skin texture, fine lines, and now my grey hair, I just think about how they're just a sign I've lived, and I'm so happy to have lived as long as I've been able to so far. I can't wait to see how I change throughout my life.

This is a good question!
My brain is about twenty years behind my actual age so it’s been physical things like my hair disappearing, my back hurting, gums receding, etc that show me I’m older.
All the big milestone birthdays have been notable because I don’t care about them. I didn’t feel like I expected to feel at 30 or 40 or 50. (there isn’t a maximum age on this app, I hope!)
