So, do I get PMS? I'd like to say, NO! But, anyone who knows me knows that that would be a lie. At least right now anyway. On a normal basis my emotions are usually pretty regular and I'm ok. However, right now with all this bleeding and constant nursing (Bean is an emotional eater...lol) my emotions are totally out of whack. One day I am kind and sweet like a warm Hershey kiss melting in your mouth and just the quick I can wake up the next morning with flames shooting out of my eye balls. Lately I have even started to cry and that sucks big time considering the fact that I'm not a "crier". I'm usually pretty tough and rugged full of sarcastic comeback's ready to combat any evil that comes my way as my tongue is like my families own little super man defending my loved ones against wrongdoers every where I go. Right now I am unpredictable so the best thing to do is just kinda stay back and let me be myself. 
Memory must be going with age my friends, because I do NOT remember this kinda crap when I was younger with the first crop of kids. My oldest is 18 now and youngest to the first set is almost 12. We had those 4 blessings during the first half of our marriage and now we have restarted. Problem is... I NEVER PAID ANY ATTENTION to my body back then like I do now... damn it! WHY...WHY... WHY??? Now, I am left feeling like the last 18 years were just a blur and I cannot remember if I bled or didn't really. I mean what I do remember was normal periods up until I turned 30. Then the panic button hit and we started trying to conceive our second crop of kids. So, I became a watchman over my reproductive system sorta over night almost like night time prison guards looking over the top of a maximum security prison standing armed and dangerous right after the power has just gone out. Tweaking and playing with my bodies natural aging process with herbs and vitamins to keep my eggies and his spermies as youthful as possible for as long as possible. After a few miscarriages we ended up at an RE's office, had done every test known to man as to why the miscarriages were happening and why I couldn't get pregnant. Those TTC will know what I mean when I say that our numbers were all good and an HSG test lead to the findings of a blocked tube which lead us to a LAP surgery, which lead us to discover that I had endometriosis. Endometriosis for those who don't know is the BITCH of the female reproductive system. Growing and taking over your once youthful and beautiful uterus as if it owned the joint. Seriously, I'll post another time about what it is and all that. Right now today's rant is this irregular bleeding. The endo had me bleeding less and my periods were only about 3 days long and very light when I went in for surgery. I had gotten pregnant right away after the LAP surgery. And, I do mean right away. So, I guess you could say that I have not really had a normal period to see what my bodies version of normal is.
I got pregnant with "Bean" the very next month after the surgery. So, here I am again... waiting... waiting... waiting... to get another BFP! Which was time to CELEBRATE after so many years of TTC and failed miscarriages. I cannot wait to see my next BFP! It is coming soon... just you wait and see... !!!!
So, friends... Any of you have bleeding that just won't quit while you were nursing? And, any of you who threaten to say it is early menopause I am going to warn you right now... BITE YOUR TONGUE! Seriously, that really isn't it. My fertility really is still great and no signs of that mean nasty "N" word. THANK GOD! And, my doctor is the one who told me that. He said I have another good 12 years or so. And, I am going to be using all of those to conceive. I love being a mama! It truly is the very best gift that a woman can ever get!
