I just started my first postpartum period. Joy. My body seems to be trying to kill me with blood loss. Was anyone else's really really heavy the first time? Does it get better? If it doesn't get better, please lie to me.
My first couple of cycles were horrible! I had severe cramping, backache and moodiness which I never had before LO. Fortunately, they did return to normal.
Re: Aunt Flo - yikes!
Even a minor event in the life of a child is an event of that child's world and thus a world event.

I'll like you for always.
As long as I'm living,
my baby you'll be."
