2nd Trimester

Not Looking Forward to AF

I don't have totally horrible periods but still they are just annoying and uncomfortable.  Can't she just stay away forever?  I feel like I'm just being teased and she is going to come back full force right after baby Jack comes!

Re: Not Looking Forward to AF

  • Haha, I just gave away my stash of pads to my neighbor.  I was just thinking, glad I don't need those for a while.
  • I feel ya! I reaaaaaaaally don't want it to come back...but at the same time, I'm more scared my irregular AF will return. From April 09-Oct when I got pg was the first time in my life I'd been regular, ever. Ahhh, so afraid of going back to as much as 85days for a cycle. YIKES!

  • Mine better come back and be much less horrible than it was before!  I have always suffered with the WORST periods, so I do not miss it at all.
  • Some women will not have AF if they are nursing. If you are planning on BF'ing, then there's hope!

     I have not had AF since August 2007. 

    Got pregnant September 2007. Had DD June 2008. Breastfed until DD was 16 months (October 2009). Got pregnant again *November 2009.

    I will admit I had screwy cycles before pregnancy, so that might play into it. But it does happen!  

    *oops forgot that the first time I posted!

  • I went until ds was 9 months before getting mine back - what a treat!  I sure enjoyed it!  Now, pregnant with #2, so it will be awhile again! 
  • You can do what I did... BF for ages and delay the onset of AF.  Get AF back (finally), start TTC right away and have it actually work!  I've only had one AF since April 2008.

    As a side note, it took us AGES to conceive DD & we have known infertility issues, so I was shocked when it worked the first time w/baby #2.

  • Something no one told me about when I was pregnant the first time around: the 6 week long non-stop bleeding party. So lame.

    I know the post partum bleeding isn't the same for everyone, but dang.
