AF Arrival on CD 27

I am grateful for:

1. my 91 year old dad who is still here with us and in good health as well.
2. E, who is taking a 5 week summer college course - 4 times a week, and still finds the time to put a new shower head in the bath, hang a new towel rack in the bath, put 2 air conditioners in the bedrooms, fix the office door, cut the lawn and probably a hundred other things I am forgetting.
3. the nice commission check I received from my sales in May from Thirty-One.

Well, at least AF is getting closer to a normal cycle for this month to last month, but the one thing that hasn't change is her flow.  When I awoke this morning, I thought she was going to go into a normal flow since there was a good amount on the TP and I feel bloated, but sad to report that as of this afternoon she hasn't done much since - still wearing a LightDay.  I am now saying this is just pure spotting and nothing more...UGH.

I need to call my RE in the next couple of days and explain how it has been for the last 9 months being on Premphase and that we have decided not to move forward with having a child and talk about my options going forward to help with the symptoms of pre-menopause (hot flashes, etc.).

I have put on 7 lbs since August of last year and I know alot of it is from over indulging especially on the sweets.  I am also concerned that it isn't helped by being on this medication either.  I have to start losing the weight again by watching what I eat as well as being on the proper meds.  I am beginning to feel like I want to crawl out of my skin - not liking how I look...UGH.  Plus, we have mirrored closet doors in our bedroom in the new house and that is really "putting it in my face" even more in the last couple of days.

Lastly, I have to call tonight after 5:30 p.m. to see if I need to go for jury duty tomorrow...oh joy!

  1. Sorry your hormones are acting up. Will you stay with your RE even if you are not making any further attempts at pregnancy? One thing I like about the RE offices is that you don't see baby pictures everywhere, like at the regular OB-GYN. I hope you can avoid jury duty.
