Hi all,
I’m still breastfeeding my 12 month old and as a result my period has only just returned. It was ok in terms of the bleeding - nothing too heavy or out of the ordinary, but wow my hormones have been absolutely all over the place during my cycle. I hate absolutely everybody (particularly my husband), my weight gain and bloating around ovulation has been brutal (including the runs for a few days), I feel like a complete and utter failure at everything, especially being a mother, and just want to run away from everyone and hide.
I assume it’s just my hormones sorting themselves out because I haven’t had a period in so long but can anyone offer me any comfort?! I feel absolutely feral…
