1 month ¼ reblog. @mommyclan.
my boy strawpaw because I cannot be missing on on the @mommyclan fun . he is a silly goober okay goodnigjt higher effort things later
I'm not sure how many young transmasc/transneutral people will even see this, but some words of advice;
disclaimer, I'm not here to say "don't wear your binder ever" but it's SO important to hear about the safety and truly take it in
I'm Nico. I began wearing a binder at roughly age 12 to 13. I heard and saw all the tips about 8 hours a day maximum, and forward facing tatas. those both and more absolutely apply, but my focus in writing this is about how many hours at a time you're wearing it.
I would wear mine ALL day anyway, I'd put it on at 8/8:30am, and take it off 12 hours later at 8/8:30pm. anyone in these same shoes will understand why I did that. I once wore it for 42 hours straight.
I haven't worn any binders, or any method of chest restriction, in 6 months or slightly less. I'm 16 now, and I still get horrible rib pain from time to time. please, do not overbind. your ribs are not finished forming and sitting into place until roughly age 20, and aside from that, you can damage tissue on your chest that can affect your ability to have top surgery.
I'm not advocating for younger people not binding, but you really must be careful of your moderation because the damages are very real. I myself never saw any first-hand accounts of people that hadn't paced themselves, and it may have helped me if I did. so I hope at least one person sees this and takes care of themself/ves.
feel free to ask me to elaborate on anything, or other questions, and I will to the best of my ability.
thank you.
