But opposite since we're using natural family planning as BC right now. </p> Ree723 on "It's been almost a year and a half but it finally returned" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/its-been-almost-a-year-and-a-half-but-it-finally-returned#post-658463 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 15:37:43 +0000 Ree723 658463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 9 months PP and my period just came back a couple of weeks ago. Whilst it's definitely not fun, I am excited as we want to start TTC #2 and now that my cycle is back, we can! </p> birdofafeather on "It's been almost a year and a half but it finally returned" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/its-been-almost-a-year-and-a-half-but-it-finally-returned#post-657847 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 13:01:41 +0000 birdofafeather 657847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 2 months PP and had an extremely long cycle when I got pregnant so it's been over a year since my last period. I'm not looking forward to it coming back! </p> BelugaBean on "It's been almost a year and a half but it finally returned" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/its-been-almost-a-year-and-a-half-but-it-finally-returned#post-656903 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 09:08:29 +0000 BelugaBean 656903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katiew92081: I'm hoping this one is a lot lighter and has less side effects. </p> <p>@littlek: Yeah, luckily I was able to hide it so DH couldn't tell I was on the verge of tears! </p> littlek on "It's been almost a year and a half but it finally returned" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/its-been-almost-a-year-and-a-half-but-it-finally-returned#post-656815 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 08:33:47 +0000 littlek 656815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BelugaBean: hahaha.. love the hormones.. I'm a hormonal mess lately </p> Dandelion on "It's been almost a year and a half but it finally returned" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/its-been-almost-a-year-and-a-half-but-it-finally-returned#post-656803 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 08:28:21 +0000 Dandelion 656803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I had Mirena, I had a period like once a year. They were lighter, too. </p> BelugaBean on "It's been almost a year and a half but it finally returned" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/its-been-almost-a-year-and-a-half-but-it-finally-returned#post-656758 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 08:10:12 +0000 BelugaBean 656758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also, I should have known this was coming. Last night we got our Honest diaper trial bundle and DH had me tell him more about it and while reading the brochure, I started to get choked up talking about trying to do what's best for our kids. So the emotional, hormonal mess that I almost became should have tipped me off. </p> BelugaBean on "It's been almost a year and a half but it finally returned" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/its-been-almost-a-year-and-a-half-but-it-finally-returned#post-656744 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 08:05:34 +0000 BelugaBean 656744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My period returned today. I assumed I was in the clear because I had my Mirena inserted in September and had only minimal spotting and then nothing. But it came back today, cramps and all. I'm hoping it's lighter and shorter than before though and I'm hoping I don't get my usual symptoms (bloating, break outs, and headaches). Of course it showed up two days before we're set to have family pictures taken. Maybe it'll be over by then? Who knows, but I thought I'd share. I'm 8 months postpartum at this point and the last period I remember is October 8, 2011 so this is weird. </p>
