Hello my lovely ladies :)

Just wanted to check in and let you know I'm still alive. Any of you on my FB know I am.. just wanted to give a general shout-out and say hellooooo.

Things here are pretty good. We're settling in nicely (FINALLY!!!) Work is hell, but the mosquitoes are worse (I feel you Maryland) Seriously, I have 23 bites on my left leg btwn my knee and my ankle. I have 2 on my right leg, and one on each wrist. Oh, and one smack-dab on my forehead. That's a fun one!

I hope all you ladies are enjoying the warm weather! I'm going to go read everyone's posts now and catch up!

much love!!

Re: Hello my lovely ladies :)

  • I don't think we are... If you'd like to add me, I'm on a lot of the girl's pages.. Off the top of my head I know I have Koko, Bella, Maryland, Blonde, Choco..
  • Hi!

    Glad you are settled in. Sorry about the mosquitoes. I swear  there can be 1 in a room of a 100 people and it would bite me and only me!

  • I never used to get bit! I swear, I went off BC (not ttc, just tired of the hormones) and all of a sudden my hair is greyer, I have body odor, I'm getting bitten by mosquitoes, I'm feeling the heat more, and I'm sweating! That's the worst. I NEVER used to sweat or feel the heat. When I discovered the dripping under my arms, I ran to J in a panic asking WTF was going on.. I seriously couldn't figure it out.

    hmmmm, maybe that's why h calls me "stinky"... Confused  All this time I thought it was a term of endearment....but it's really cuz i stopped BC....LOL.

    btw - misquito's love me too....always have.  Mom always called me "sweat-meat" when we went camping....NOT fun times.  But glad you dropped in to say hello city....keep it coming!!!

  • Hello, there!!! I'm sorry you're being eaten up. It's just because you're so sweet!

    I hate being off BC too. My periods are like death. I swear if contractions are anything like off BC period cramps I am going to cry like a baby!

  • Howdy...I know all about mosquitos...I'm actually allergic...so living in swamp land U.S.A. is a no no.

    When we lived closer to New Orleans one night I counted 50 on my right side alone.

    Being off BC was terrible for acne and you know I didn't think about the sweating thing because I've always been a sweater but I know while being pregnant it was disgusting haha.  The BC I'm on now is the lowest dose possible and I sweat like crazy.

    I need to work on being more bitter! My periods have gotten shorter Seriously, like they only last 2-3 days now. They're super heavy (sorry, TMI) but they're over in a blink. The first month I stopped the BC, I was in the ER because I had cramps that were so bad that an IV with 4mg of toridol (sp?) and 8mg of morphine didn't help ease anything. I was still alert and in pain. The doctor promised I'd be out cold! liar. That was the only time though, and they partly think it was because it was my first cycle without BC since the egg donation.
