update to my period post

lrichmond86 · August 2013

Well there's no wondering about it. This is definitely my period. Five weeks pp. And i feel like sh*t... cramps, nausea, headache, backache. I kind of forgot how much this sucks. My uterus and I are not on good terms today.

Anyone else have af return already? You have my sympathy

That stinks :-( I'm terrified of getting my period again. I haven't a period without being on the pill for 5 years. Part of the reason I went on the pill was killer cramps that usually made me throw up. Bleh. I'm sorry you didn't get more time without one

Same here! At one point while I was in college I practically crawled home from class...in the snow mind you. Thought I was going to have to call 911 it hurt so much.

OP, hope AF doesn't stay around dfor long!

I'm sorry. That really sucks.

I went on the pill for terrible cramps too. After I had DS, I got my period back at 2 months pp and because I was pumping, I did not go back on the pill until I stopped pumping when he was 6 months. My periods were not as bad as they had been so I luckily did not get the terrible cramps. I am really hoping it stays away this time. My supply decreased every month when my period came.

Haven't gotten mine yet but after what happened during delivery with placenta attachment and blood loss I will welcome it! I know its a pain in the butt expecially with bf because can effect supply but we are fortunate to get it. I've had losses one later and to be honest it made me look at things so differently! Fx it passes quickly and you feel better

I also had a late loss at 31 weeks, and it does make me look at it differently. It was more emotionally painful than I expected it to be. But this time I just feel physically uncomfortable and easy too emotional. Guess it's better now than when school starts again.

I know its one of the things we all take for granted. It was far worse after any loss as it was a constant remider my baby was gone. Now its more of okay I'm fortunate to have it and the possibility if I choose to have more. I know some moms on here had tragic deliverys so my heart is with them I know they would love to have what we dread( a period) and have more children. I just thought of them when I saw this I know it had no ill intention it just made me hurt for them .

I realize this. I didn't mean to be hurtful to anyone. This started with a question regarding what was normal pp. I'm very sorry for anyone who has had a traffic delivery, but didn't really see my original post as insensitive. I apologize if anyone was offended.

I wasn't offended. ..I just view periods differently now that I'll never have one again. I'm in the middle of a long grieving process just begging you to appreciate your ability to have more children if you'd like that. No harm done. I know I've been somewhat catty lately, but I'm trying hard to remain a part of this group. I still went through pregnancy with you all and share a beautiful baby from July. I know I can learn as much from you allabout raising my son as I learned about pregnancy. I see things a little differently now though.

No worries. I'm probably more on the defensive because I'm an emotional mess today.
