Bleeding

Just wanted to share something really interesting....how about bleeding returning a week after it's over...and hey, how about it being Aafra Faafra!

Yeah, hi! I am Elsie, and I got my periods back! Super!

Forget the breastfeeding and all that, my uterus is all normal-o now! All normal-o!

Before you say, Boo, and oh my, how has this happened, I will admit that the reason this has happened happens to be me.

I could not handling the post-partum bleeding, especially when the blindsiding /midnight fun episodes happened. I could not see myself going through and bearing the flow, like I did last year (these very months), and hoping my body would hold it down.

I went on a medication. My medication was tapered down in tune with the reducing flow to spotting to nada. And even though I had not quite finished and gone off it, my body decided to do the monthly jumperoo.

My periods are back.

And I am not mentally prepared for it. I can't handle bleeding. I am not saying it is over the top, just that I am completely loathing the slightest feel of sanitary napkins against my skin. Hating it totally.

And I have a runny nose.

And baby girl has had erratic nighttime sleeping for the past few days.

And I need to take a trip I am not comfortable taking.

And oh, I am bleeding when I do not want to.

I started another cycle on the medication. By March-end, possibly, I will be in a better frame of mind to handle this circus.
