Nu.va Ri.ng and other stuff

I hate that I have to take BCP, but in order to have my cycles I have to take the junk. I told Dr. K at my annual visit that I didn't want to have to take a pill every day for the next 10-15 years. His suggestion was an IUD, but I wasn't so sure about that. It just kind of wigged me out to have something foreign inside my uterus for 5 years. So I started the Nu.va Rin.g today, and I was surprised at how huge it was!! It was awkward to insert, but I think I finally got it in the right spot. I don't feel it, so that's a good thing. Question is...will J know it's there???

For the last year or so I have been so emotional. Before we started ttc and had the m/c's I never was a cryer. It took a lot to make me cry, and even the sadest moments couldn't get the waterworks gushing. But now...I cry at the dumbest things. Take the Pedigree commercials for example. The ones where they are saying that for every dog that is adopted there is one that isn't and they're showing a dog wagging its tail in a cage watching a couple pass by and go to another cage. OMG!!! I cry like a baby when I see that commercial. As if that one isn't bad enough, now they've come out with another one. It talks about when owners move and leave their dogs behind and it shows a dog just sitting there wagging its tail like it has no clue what's going on. They're killing me here!!! What is going on with me?

I am exactly the same way. Either I'm more in touch with my emotions after dealing with IF so long or I am just more emotional. Those commercials make me sad too! And they always pick the cutest dogs!

Hey i used that. I referred to it as my jelly bracelet. E never complained or said anything about it - so if he felt it - I was never told. Good Luck to you w/ it.

I think IF does something to our tear ducts. I was not an emotional person until I started with treatments and cycle limbos

I am the same way with those commercials! Gotta love 'em and hate 'em at the same time!

As for the ring.....tell me how that is later....do you have the same side effects and all??

I actually have an appointment scheduled for Mar 25th to discuss hysterectomy options....too many problems for me these days. I had another doctor that kept trying to talk me out if it despite all the trouble I have....

So, I might not need the ring, but am interested just in case.

Hey - that commercial is BRUTAL. If you don't cry when you see it you are made of stone!

Post-BC me is totally different than BC me. After being off BC for over two years now, I've realized that the 12 years of continuous BC did a LOT to stabilize my moods... I actually miss that.

BC pills here for 15 years... made me more emotionally stable too.

That commercial you mention is brutal! I swear it rips my heart out every time I see it!

Hey...not sure how close you and Mary Michelle ever were, but she is blogging again (for now)...didn't know if you knew or not, but she has twin 3 1/2 year olds that were adopted (through CPS I think!) anyway, she is in the process of becoming foster parent to their half brother, and possibly adopting him. Go check out her blog (not much there since she just started back, but you can contact her that way if you want...can't remember the addy, but I added her to my sidebar!
