Feeling really sorry for myself and on my own today too ..................

[BubblesDeVere]

TOTM arrived on thursday and yesterday I felt bad, didn't think I could get any worse, spent ALL day in bed and still slept like a log last night, how wrong I was, I woke up this morning in agony, can't walk straight, got painkillers, but don't like taking them as they are that strong they make me very very drowsy.

I am losing that much that I feel v v week and can't get off the sofa, its like this every month, but this time is worse than usual, I can't even go out of the house to take dd1 to school I am that heavy, i have had to ask a neighbour to take her, luckily her daughter goes to the same school.

I am on my own all day with a dd2 who is very boisterous bless her and she loves jumping on me.

I'm feeling really really sorry for myself lol.

Blimey bubbles that sounds painful! ...I know just how you feel, before breastfeeding my periods were like that... have you got any iron tablets? Sounds like they might do some good for the blood loss and weak feelings... my little one likes jumping on my morning sicky belly too!... I hope it eases off for tomorrow!

thanks, not got any iron but will get dh to get me some. i feel sick with pain and didn't eat yesterday. wheat bags take the pain off for ahort while. I feel that the only option to stop this pain everything month is the have a hysterectomy,but i feel that that is a VERY drastic step, although I can't have any more children with dh, and I have two beautiful dd's I feel ready for that option to be taken away from me iykwim.

I'll be considering that option after breastfeeding my next one too...it seems like such a shocking thing to do doesn't it! If you find a kinder solution let me know!!

Not feeling any better, my stomach is as hard as concrete and I still feel v v sick, I'm sooooooooooo tired, but can't go to sleep

Aww sorry I didn't see this bubbles... I hope you're feeling better now! If not maybe a doctors appointment would help... big hugs!

would going on the pill help

Aww BDV, I feel for you every month, I feel worse than usual this month, it's coming upto the full moon aswell, I always get really bloated when there is a full moon and now my TOTM has started to coincide with it and it's double crap!
