Aunt Flo

Goddammit to crap, I seem to have my period again. Six weeks of lochia, three weeks of just about back to normal, and now I think it's starting again - that or I have a mysterious return of lochia, I hope that's not a bad thing.

With my daughter I had a heavy post birth whateveritis but then I didn't get my period for about 9 months! And I didn't miss it! Is this really all the break I get this time?

Interestingly, as this baby was 12oz lighter, I really didn't seem to have any heavy blood loss, just red or pink tinged stuff. But would that affect how soon my period returns?

No-one tells you this stuff...

It would make sense though, I've had a fierce bad temper the last few days, tolerance levels low. And yesterday I lost my keys - in the house - and they have yet to show up, and we've looked everywhere. Well, obviously everywhere except where they are. If anyone could appeal to St Anthony on my behalf that would be great, I have to go to town tomorrow to the passport office, to get the kids' passports - a holiday is in the offing after all! But I'm not looking forward to doing it by public transport with a buggy and a four year old, no siree. A reminder of how the carless live...
