Guess who's back...

back again...

No, not Shady.

The bitch of all bitches.

Some call her Aunt Flo.

I call her my fucking period.

I haven't had a period since -- wait for it -- June of 2008, except for one sorry excuse for a period I had in January of 2010 (it was 2 days, barely anything) and then I got pregnant with Maggie.

Being pregnant, nursing, being pregnant, nursing, and having an IUD. 

I stopped nursing almost two months ago.

She's back with a fucking vengeance.

I have cramps.  I am not prepared for this at all.  My OB/GYN said I might not get one at all because of the IUD.

WRONG!

I thought I had gotten it a few weeks ago but it turned out to be nothing.

This time, it's a hell of a lot more than nothing.

Fuck.
