Also, it would be nice to get my sex drive back.

But, I'm not looking forward to the mess, inconvenience, mood swings, or pre-AF breakouts. I did buy some mama pads off Etsy, I'm thinking of getting a diva cup to use as well, so I'm kind of excited to try those out. I read up on the dangers of tampons a while back so I'd like to get away from those.

UGH> my skin has been atrocious the last couple weeks and it never occurred to me that it could be related to AF. I just wish I had bought a Diva Cup beforehand. I'm stuck with tampons this cycle, which is inconvenient and yucky ( I did a lot of reading over the past couple years about disposable menstrual products). I'll pick one up before the next round.


For those mamas who have their PPAF, are your cycles regular? Should I expect her again in 22 days? Or will it be hit and miss from still BFing?

Yup. Total denial.
Never mind that my boy is not toddling... he's RUNNING all over the place. He's not one yet... still an infant!
Denial aside, I look at his little face and I see the boy he's becoming, not that tiny little baby any more. It goes so fast! I want to get pregnant again soon -- I want it all over again!

Total denial. Is that so wrong? LOL.

Well, the bittersweet news is that I'm not pregnant and that I did get my dear sweet AF back (blech). I would have been excited for a #3....but I'm also excited to move on into the next stage of my girls lives. It's all good. I got a new paragard. Glad to not be feeling like a teenager trying to manipulate those silly condoms, hee hee.
Big birthday party next weekend!! Can't believe how fast a year can fly. (Such a true cliché)
K, will meet you all over in the new toddlers thread. Thank you for starting it and keeping us all directed!

Happy birthday everyone!
