Aunt Flo...she's back!

This is bad for several reasons(including that periods suck)
I haven't had one since October 2010 so I was NOT prepared at all when she showed her ugly head at 4am. Ruined my undies, pjs, and a spot on the bed.

Twice I've spotted, only enough to need a little wad of tp, so I stupidly thought this was going to be the same.
WRONG
I wore light khakis to work(I know, dumb) and yep, they're stained along with my undies.
Also I forgot to bring any supplies with me to work. Gah, I've had pads or tampons with me practically every second since I was 12. But today, didn't even think about it.

I'm kinda bummed, since I'm still nursing I didn't think she'd return until I stopped.

Oh, my husband's reaction when I told him:
"That means you're fertile! " *sigh* men are such morons. (though it did make me chuckle)

i hate aunt flo. The first period I had pp was just awful and it was super heavy and I wa in so much pain. And then I got my bc implant like a week after AF left and she came back while I was at school! The worst part is there are only 2 bathrooms on campus with tampons and pads and the rest of the bathrooms have machines that say sorry we do not stock these, go to x bathroom. I seriously had to walk close to a mile to the neatest bathroom that had feminine hygiene supplies

I have plenty in my office, LOL. I always have those stocked for the girls. I even emptied my cabinet at home when I got pregnant and brought them all to school. Then....my first PP period, I forgot and didn't have any supplies because they were all at school, LOL

Aunt Flow sucks. Ugh!!!!

Your hubby's comment made me giggle!!

I have had a period anytime Keelan sleeps longer than 7 hours, which is rare so I've only had 2 so far.

And it's a myth that AF stays away as long as you breastfeed. For some it does, others not so much.

it sucks regardless of when it returns!

Yeah, AF sucks. I got my first PP AF with Kairi at 8 weeks, and the same with Alexis. I BF Kairi until 3, so yeah, I call myth on that.

Ugh, I'm sorry! I got mine back about 2.5 months ago and I am not happy, I was hoping I'd be lucky and it would stay away a little longer. Alexis is still nursing every 2-3 hours around the clock, it's not fair!
