Let's get personal

I need some place to vent out personal things about what i go through that many may not want to read on Facebook, so shall we start?

While pregnant with Caroline, Sloan and i came to the decision that we did not want any more kids. Also my OB recommended we do not have another baby because of my small pelvis it was getting to dangerous. Two was the limit which was fine with us, because I think two is more than enough for us! So, with this it meant getting a tubal ligation during my c-section when I had Caroline. Although it has been almost three years i still remember my OB explaining to me that I may have worse periods after my ligation, but I laughed at that. Since I was 10 years old my periods have been horrible, like soaking tampons can't get out of the fetal position cramps, and bloating...ugh it was horrible. So, yeah i thought "ha can't be any worse!"....I was wrong.

The first year after Caroline I went about 7 months without having period, and when I finally did start it was HELL!!!! Ever since that one my periods vary, I can go a few months where it is so light I don't need anything, which you would think "Oh how nice!". Yeah its nice for the time being, but I know what will soon come... After a few months of light periods I get HELL all over again. It is as if my body is trying to clear everything out that did not get out over the past few months. Cramps are like labor, and bloating is INSANE! In fact this week I have gained 10 lbs thanks to bloating, yes ten! I started today, and I gained another three lbs, so since Saturday I have gained 13 lbs, thirteen! It will all go away once HELL is over, but right now I look and feel horrible. I do not understand why I gain so much, it's not like I go all crazy and eat my way through a room full of food or anything! Nothing changes actually, I eat normal and sometimes less because of damn cramps. Besides I don't think you gain 13 lbs normally just by eating, right?

So...don't get your tubes tied kids!
