Oh ugh, Sara. Nightmare!
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
My dad's internist basically told him he could have bread and pasta or he could be on insulin.
Seriously, it depends on how your body reacts ---every body is different. though it has been awhile, I watched my bs very carefully. I eat less berad and pasta and smaller servings-- and at home it is all high fiber and whole grain.
But I also know me, saying never again-- means that is the only thing I eat.
And as my friend R and I say -- if you are going to eat cake -- do it for breakfast!

“Not dead yet!”
I'm still getting used to not having periods, but having occasional mood swings. There's no real rhyme or reason to them yet, so it's... interesting.

I don't know that I've ever been strictly regular, but I've never really tracked it to find out. Roughly 28 sounds about right. I can always tell it's coming a couple of days ahead - not PMS or cramps but just sort of a rumbly feeling - so it was never really an issue. Less would certainly be more in this arena, though.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I have a long cycle, but very heavy bleeding and cramps for a few days before it starts. I'd take closer together and less painful, no matter how much weight I gained, as long as I was still mobile and able to find clothes.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Since I got the Mirena, I have no period, and haven't had one for a couple of years, and it is TEH AWESOME. Like Cashmere, I will be sad when I have to have it yanked. I haven't bought tampons or maxipads in years. YEARS.

“Not dead yet!”
I hated the Mirena with the heat of a thousand suns. It made my periods and cramps worse. Couldn't get it out fast enough.

With diabetes, I can get away with reasonable amounts of whole wheat pasta, and double fiber bread without needing insulin. Fiber, and complex carbs

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Before my thyroid deccided to get whacky, I was 28 days like clockwork. Which made it nice for predicting ovulation. Then the thyroid crapped out and I would be at 23 days, 28 days, 35 days. And when you are trying to get pregnant and your period shows up a full week late? Not fun.
