Good morning, Pale Strawberry!

Welcome to the forum, Honey!

Let me get you some hot coco and cookies to help you get all settled in.....OK?

Now, I'm not going to lecture you on unsupervised hormones (self medicating) because you are doing it with a doctor now.. That's great and the only way to do it.

I just want to mention it for the sake of the other members that read your post, that doing this is very dangerous!

Please only do it with a doctor's supervision!

It sounds as if you are moving along quite nicely and you look amazing! Your pic shows me a young woman with unruly hair....LOL

But, it sounds as if you are getting your ducks in a row...you didn't mention your location...USA? UK?

It makes a difference for the kind of health care that you receive...

I'm quite glad that you have joined us, Sweetheart...may we call you "Pale"? or do you have something that you would like us to use?

It's so nice to have you, Honey....

BIGG HUGGS!

Howdy howdy!

I'd say your mom is handling it very well, she's probably just got a million things running through her head, trying to sort out the why's and what-if's. It's only natural.

LOVE the t-shirt!

*Hugs*

Hello!

Thank you for the replies :)

Btw, I am sorry if I made any duplicate posts, originally I tried to post it in the mtf forums but it didn't show, I tried twice and then tried here.

I am from Israel, and I know it is dangerous to self medicate, the reasons I did it are complicated but the best thing is that I am under medical care now (a gynecologist)

You can call me pale :) I am actually paler than most of my family! :o

Though maybe not pale enough ^^

Every time I show pictures, people say it's "a girl", but in real life people seem to sometimes say girl sometimes boy when they see me (like, if I am approaching a shop seller, not saying anything to suggest them any gender but letting them speak first).

Kinda annoying!

Personally I see a boy too, but it could be my perception is messed from seeing myself for years.

Yes! my hair is unruly! :o I never seem to get it right, I am afraid to go to a hairstylist after mom cut it so sort (!!! like, grass) for years.

Last year I went to a hairstylist at march and he removed so many inches! I was scared to go to anyone ever again.

People told me he was supposed to do that.. but it felt like a lot was lost and took it a lot of time to regrow.. scary!!!

I am not even sure what to tell a stylist to do O_o people told me to have it layered and trimmed and that's it maybe..

I am afraid he will do me something which is more for a boy with long hair than a girl, if there is such difference at all.. *anxious person!!!!!*

So I am lost about what to do with.. anything.. and I am not sure when I will get surgery and I want to start living already.....................

And the shirt!!!!! is from my boyfriend, who studies in Huddersfield University, UK.

Btw, every time I try and post the forums says I am not logged, I need to copy everything, relog and post again.. what can I do to fix that?

OK, Pale it is!

Don't worry about the duplicate posts, Sweetheart...I took care of that!

And, good for you on the doctor supervision!

I don't know what is wrong with you having to log on again...I'll check on that for you......OK?

What browser do you use IE6?...Firefox? Opra?

Sounds like you have cookies disabled. Tsk Tsk, of all the sites to be disabling cookies on! We LOVE cookies!!!!

Seriously though, check your browser preferences and check to see if cookies are allowed. If not you can still not allow them, but add www.lauras-playground.com to the exceptions list, that should fix you right up. Or you could just allow cookies, they generally don't cause any problems, especially if you're on your own pc and not a shared one.

Well, you probably checked at the same time, but as an afterthought, perhaps they're set to expire after a short period of time?

Welcome Pale. We're very happy to have you join our family. I think you look lovely and I feel your parents, especially your mother, are handling your condition and plans well. Good luck with your transition, Hon.

On the login page, do you have the "remember me" box checkmarked? In theory, this shouldn't be necessary, but I've done a quick search and it's worked for others having the same issue on other forums.

Yes! I have remember me :)

I think the cookies are saved forever, they do on other forums anyway :)

Hi Pale

Welcome to the playground everyone is so nice here as you can tell already. For your parents to have that kind of reaction is a good sign also because alot of parents just dont want to accept it and end up disowning their kids over it, and I think that your mom is helping you with clothes and helping with costs is her way of coping with things.

Welcome :)

Your hair isn't bad. If you want to do something different get your hair cut with bangs. Or go to a salon and spend time going through their photobooks.

Welcome aboard Pale, now you have told them it becomes a waiting game. It will take them time to process what they have been told and to deal with it their own way. Feel free to ask your questions, we will do our best to answer them and with 6000+ members on this site I am sure that someone can help with nearly anything.

Well Pale Strawberry,

By the looks of your image you have made the right choice and

know who you are.And had the smarts to go about this the right

way and get a physican to monitor your transition.That your mother

is willing to help in anyway she can is huge dear girl.She is still

adjusting to having a daughter instead of a son.So be patient.

And honey,I do not see you as needing and FFS of any kind.

HRT is magic,will do more for you than you can imagine with

a steady regimen.Welcome to the Playground you pretty young thing.

Hugs Young Lady,

Angie

      Good morning everyone,   It was our first night with our European Boxer and it went well. We got up at 05:30 let him out of the cage and went directly outside to give him a chance to go potty. It has been raining for two days and nights so the grass is soaked and nearly up to his belly. I don’t think he’s ever been outside while it’s raining or wet. I had my rain jacket on and a big brimmed hat as well as rain boots, he just stayed at my feet no matter where we went in the yard. I took him to the previous locations where out daughter’s dog had gone poo, but he just sat at my feet. Once inside and drying him off with a towel. He took a poo right there. So I gathered up his mess, and took him and his poo outside. So right now it’s dog one, trainer zero. Now that the coffee is brewed and I have a cup, he’s chewing on a toy.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Strange that I awoke from a dream dreaming about "being able to pee standing up!"   I know that sounds strange from someone AMAB, but intersex issues have always prevented that.    I wonder what made me dream like that? That was a first! 🤔

      Morning y'all.    Nearly winter here, but it's a mild climate compared to what most of you experience. Even so, the best way to describe the mornings lately is...nipply! 😁

      What I don’t like about the dealer working on my car, yes the put the paper mats on the floor, but why don’t they remove them when they bring my car to me?  And why do they always mess with my radio settings and my electronic dashboard settings?  I get them the way I want them and they seem to want them at factory default.  Leave things like you find them!  Why is that so difficult?  And don’t tell me it’s because the updated the computer! Every time!.  And no I haven’t figured out everything yet on the new car.  I can’t even get my key programmed to move my seat when I get in and out.  It’s supposed to move the seat, the mirrors, the steering wheel and several other things.  My old Eddie Bauer was easy to program but then it only programmed seat location and pedal location.   ok now that we’ve had our rousing knock on cars and dealer mechanics.  What else shall we talk about?  Bras?  Seems like an appropriate subject for most of us.  I have several different types. Two are famous store push-up padded to are more common everyday lightly padded ant one is a no padding no strap slip and the last one is a front close longline no padding.  Now that one supports the theory that I am now a B cup on my own. I’d prefer a C but then I’m not so sure my blouses would still fit without pulling.  Ah the problem we have as women.  And sizes are never ever the same.  Oh I’m a size ??  But men I need a large shirt and 36-30 pants and they always fit.   we can’t buy anything off the rack with confidence it will fit and I hate having to take it home to try one and return what doesn’t fit.   we’ll time to do my hair and leave.   love ya   Willow
