I cant get a doc's appt for 2 weeks (ah, the joys of doctor's waiting lists!), and just wondered if anyone has any ideas about what this could be.
I have had increasingly long cycles and long, heavy periods for the last year or so (gone from a 28 day cycle to a 35 day cycle, periods gone from lasting 5 days to more like 7 or 8). Last month, however, my period arrived on day 21 of my cycle and was quite light, but lasted in little dribbles for about 10 days (sorry for tmi, but it was literally like little dribbles).
Over the past year I have suffered from increased, weird bloating in my abdomen and tenderness around the site of my c-section scar (it's 18 months old and not infected or anything, just tender).
The bloating is annoying. I can go from looking like a relatively normal size 14 to seeming 5 months pregnant seemingly overnight and at all random stages of my cycle.
I also constantly feel weird little movements - like a baby kicking - but obviosuly it's not a baby or I would have been 12 months pregnant by now!
Last night I had really weird pains, almost like contractions, that lasted on and off all night and disappeared in the morning. I have woken up feeling really bloated again and keep having the weird movement feelings and also a kind of tightening sensation, like Braxton Hicks!
What is going on with my body??! Something is not right.
FYI - had a smear ast year and was normal. Was diagnosed with gallstones last year, too, but the pain I felt last nght isn't the same 'pain under the rib' I get with my gallstones.
