Hey ladies,
So quick back story. I had my coil out about 18 months ago after having it a total of 12 years (too long I know, covid blah blah) I have a 14 year old girl who is my entire world. Periods had gone weird so they took the coil out and we thought I was going into early menopause (34). My family has it as history and that’s all the doctors offered as a suggestion. Partner and I started trying just in case with no luck. Stopped trying as it was heartbreaking every month and decided that was that for now.
went on holiday this month and didn’t at all be careful, even joked about it with “being away”.
I don’t track like I used to but do wear a watch that monitors wrist temp and such. Normal cycle is 25-31 days. Been all over the show since coil out but average 27 days.
im on day 27 today.
last few days had back ache, period cramps, boobs yest where awful so dam painful so thought that af would be here today/tomorrow. Woke up today thinking I had got my period due to tummy feelings but not even a smudge on the paper. Chances are it will arrive at the family dinner this eve so I will have to once again go cry in a toilet even though we have not been trying. I’m not going to test as I now feel that brings the period on (yes I know it does not but that’s just how it seems to happen) just looking for company to get through today. Would not usually have so much tummy feeling before spotting so just need to keep my mind busy.
turns out this was not short at all. Just need some sisterhood right now ☺️
