The HUT~ No boys allowed!

[sodaklostsoul]

/me kicks the door in and sits in the corner.

[Neige]

I'm in. Spent yesterday eating, the day before crying... :hair:

[Neige]

I think I'm here. At least I hope that's why I'm bleeding a week early... In 5 years on the Pill I've never ever been off schedule more than one day, so I'm pretty worried.

[sodaklostsoul]

/me kicks the door in and sits in the corner.
Yep, that^^^^covers it.

[Tigerlily78]

Yup...surprise! After a quick break from work to get supplies (pads and chocolate), I am back.

[Lilith]

doI have to wear a tampon just to hang around here and get chocolate ????????

[Tigerlily78]

I have some Hershey's Bliss Milk Chocolate with meltaway truffle centres, and I am willing to share :)

[Lilith]

Sounds yummy and thanks for sharing. I gave in and bought some M&Ms. They are like comfort food for me. I also bought jalepeno Cheetos :slurp:

[Tigerlily78]

Trade you some chocolates for a few fake cheesy-things :)

[Lilith]

deal :D

[Pita]

*Sigh* I need some Aleve and a backrub...and lots of chocolate and sympathy.

[osuche]

I am skipping htis month...leaving the Nuvaring in. I just can't deal with a period on top of everything else!

[FlirtWithMe]

I'm in...

I've brought with me Ben, Jerry and plenty of spoons if anyone wants to share :wave:

I also brought with me a question. What protection do you use? Does anyone use a cup (diva, keeper, mooncup etc)? I started using one a few months ago and can't rate them highly enough. Less pain, less mess - well, unless you spill it, which isn't recommended :eek: Not to mention less cash. I'll never buy another box of tampons, which means more cash for B&Js :thumb:

[Lilith]

I bought one about 6 months before my hysterectomy but never used it. I thought it would help defray the cost/issues due to the troubles I was having but alas I needed surgery.

[sodaklostsoul]

What a mood killer it was today.

[Neige]

*peeks in, looks around...*

Woah, dusty in here...

*hauls in bag of peanut butter cookies and starts cleaning out the cobwebs*

[Lilith]

ha ha! *waves at Neige though the window*

[Neige]

:p

[Aqua]

*Wonders if Neige is going to notice the fuzzy lamp hiding in the corner*

[Neige]

*dust, sweep, dust...*

Well, I guess I better put the light on, getting dark in here... Eep!!! The lamp's gotten fuzzy!!!!!!! *brings over the feather-duster*

[Neige]

Where's WI????????

As dearly as I love Wilderness, he won't touch me if I'm bleeding... I hear WI's easy, though ;)

[Lord Snow]

But you bleeding is a perfect excuse to try and convince you to let me play in the backyard...if you catch my drift.

[Neige]

You better come bearing calories if you are gonna come inside the hut. Preferably with a lot of salt.

[Lord Snow]

How about I launch the chips in with a catapult and stay safely outside?

[nikki1979]

make sure to fling in some dip with those chips and you may be on to something!

[Neige]

Sounds like the safest way to do it, Lord Snow.

Grrrrrrrrr normally I have PMS the week before I have my period, not during! I am so stubborn and contrary and ready to rip anyone's head off these past days though, ugh. I think my patience is kaput. :hair:

[Lord Snow]

make sure to fling in some dip with those chips and you may be on to something!

I could always whip up some nice creamy white dip, but it might not suit every woman's pallet.

[Neige]

Oh, how odd... This part of the lamp grows when I feather-dust it!!!

This feather-duster isn't working at all on all that fuzz, though...

[Aqua]

*struggles to maintain composure*

[Neige]

Eep!!! It giggled!

[Neige]

You know how I found this thread? "Hut" is too short to search for... so I searched for "fuzzy lamp"! :rofl:

Yeah, I'm in here.

[Aqua]

:roflmao:

[Lilith]

*shoots tampons through the window at Neige & leaves some chocolate covered popcorn on the door step*

[Neige]

Thanks, Lil. :p

[wyndhy]

i was just thinking about this thread yesterday! for the first time in over two years, i'm in the hut!! and yes, i'm happy. i'm not having a happy period :p just happy to have my period back.

[WildIrish]

Where's WI????????

As dearly as I love Wilderness, he won't touch me if I'm bleeding... I hear WI's easy, though ;)


:brows:

[wyndhy]

[WildIrish]

[wyndhy]

[WildIrish]

[WildIrish]

/me kicks open the door and drags Mrs. WI in (ever so gently, of course) and plants her next to the fuzzy lamp with a whoopie pie.

[sodaklostsoul]

:curse:

[Pita]

:curse:



Ain't it the truth! :curse:

[nikki1979]

OMG IM NOT PREGNANT !!!! WHOOOOO HOOOOOO!!! only 5 months late ... ARGH!!!

[Pita]

Why does the hut and horniness have to fall on the same week? :curse:

[Lord Snow]

Two reasons, because irony rules the world and it's hormones running rampant for either thing to occur.

[Fangtasia]

Stomps into the hut.......for the 5th time in 2.5months!!! WTF once a month is bad enough

I'm crankier than a mumma bear, i'm cramped up, feel like shit. And if someone doesnt cop it today it will be a miracle!!

[sodaklostsoul]

:(

[ShadowDancer]

*peeks around the door* I don't visit here anymore (The HUT I mean...so don't like decapitate me or anything). Since having a NovaSure procedure done back in March, I've not had a SINGLE visit from "mother nature" and I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy! :D

[gigi]

bump (for Pita)

[Pita]

Thank you Gigi. I have been really struggling with this monthly nightmare since my mid 40's. I'm now researching the idea of getting an ablation. My sister had one and thinks its the best thing she ever did. Anyone else have any ideas if I should get one or not?

[Lilith]

I had a friend who had one. I did not have that option because I had a tumor. It did not solve her problem in the long run.

[ShadowDancer]

I had an ablation 2 yrs ago. I've not had a period since. I had been having 10-14 day periods every 2 wks...and they were SUPER heavy. I went to a new gyn and he suggested we try the NovaSure (uterine ablation). I started yet another period 3 days before the surgery. We went ahead as scheduled and when he was checking me just prior to surgery, he was like, "dang you ARE bleeding awfully heavy..."...I told him I had been trying to tell someone that for 2 yrs at that point and no one would listen! I just kept being told it was "normal" because I'm overweight when I brought it up at my old doc. It was the best thing I ever did. I still have all my hormones because I still have my ovaries. Just, the rest of the equipment no longer functions.

[Pita]

Shadow Dancer that is just what I wanted to hear. I have a tendency to just put up with things, but soaking a tampon and pad every freaking hour or less for almost two days straight with terrible cramps is just getting freaking old. Especially when my body won't do its thing on my days off.

I have a physical scheduled next month with a new doc and we will be discussing the NovaSure. :nod:

Pita--I totally understand putting up with things. I've been that way too...but bleeding nonstop (minus about 3-4 days total a month), just was NOT on my "necessary to my eternal happiness" list! LOL. I was having to wear both pads and super tampons at the same time and it was awful! My doc was able to do my procedure in the office--a friend of mine had to go into the hospital...I guess it just depends on if your docs office is equipped to do it or not *shrug*...so, my insurance covered all of it minus my office visit copay! :) Talk about it with your doctor...he/she will give you the pros and cons. But I LOVE the after effects...so does my husband! HAHA!

[Lilith]

Don't put up with it! I had all of those issues as well. I was teaching an all boy class of kids with emotional and behavioral disorders. Nothing like trying to ward off a kid beating your ass and bleeding into your shoes simultaneously. Make sure you get an internal ultrasound to make sure it is nothing more serious than fibroids.

[Pita]

Thanks Shadow and Lil. I definitely plan to talk to this doctor and get something done. I'll keep you posted. :)

[sodaklostsoul]

:( Among everything else today!! :(

[gigi]

Grump....grump....grump.

I am so freaking grumpy. I got an IUD in April. Very happy and all that jazz. Then last night....it FUCKING FELL OUT! Just...whoop...out. And now I had to go to the doctor and got a new one. Crap and christ. And it hurt like a fucker.

WHERE THE HELL IS THE CHOCOLATE??? :curse:

[Lilith]

Oooooo another reason so be glad for my currently wombless state.

*hands gigi the hot water bottle*

[gigi]

...gratefully accepting it....finding a bag of M&Ms on the table....curling up.....

damned uterus.

[Pita]

(((((((Gigi)))))))))

You want some chocolate cake? Icecream? A 10 lb bar of dark, creamy chocolate? :)

[gigi]

((((((((Pita))))))))

Thanks ....and yes, to all. ;)

I'm actually feeling much better. This seems to be a bit different than my first IUD. Lets hope this one takes...

[gigi]

Well, I am about to take it all back. I started my period about a week ago. It seemed okay but now...*TMI ALERT*....passing huge clots along with the bleeding. I am now rocking the oh-so-fashionable heavy flow pad and a tampon. I am worried because the heavy clotting was occurring before I last rejected an IUD.
(and when I called my doctor, they told me not to be overly concerned and "it hasn't even been a week yet")

*sigh*

[Fangtasia]

Damn the monthlies i reckon!!

I am getting mine cured for good this year, gotta head up to the surgeon tomorrow to see if a date can be worked out. I've been getting mine every 10 days, bleeding for 5-6, very painful, very heavy, and i am very much over it!
