A belated Happy First Birthday to Lexie, daughter of [livejournal.com profile] tezzkatt!

The second half of yesterday went a bit better than the first. I got some work done, got my shower in, ran some errands, mopped the kitchen floor. Picked up the car and was pleased to learn that they didn't charge me for fixing the rear light assembly that had been loose. And I taught Isaac how to push the balls into his little balls-down-ramps toy, which was fun. It's really cool to show him something and then see him really GET it, and do it himself!

I also finally tried out the thingie they have in CVS (drugstore) where you can insert your digital-camera media card and order prints right off it. Pretty cool. I got a couple of prints of the pictures I took of Isaac at daycare with his little daycare buddies on his birthday. I took copies of those prints to daycare today and gave them to the teachers to hang on the wall. :)

Conversation with self yesterday while in CVS buying pantiliners:
Me: OK, self, here's our coupon for pantiliners. Oh look, there's a coupon for tampons attached to it.
Me: But we don't need tampons. We're still nursing Isaac.
Me: Um self, we're on our fourth menstrual period since May.
Me: I'M NOT LISTENING LA LA LA STILL NURSING LA LA
Me: Self! Wake up and smell the blood! We're back on regular cycles and almost out of tampons!
Me: *pouts, sulks*
Me: *buys tampons*

I'm sorry you have to use tampons again. (And that you had a bad experience with menstrual cups, as I recall?...)

Not bad, just messy, and not worth the bother. It's not that I mind tampons, I just wish I didn't need to use anything at all.

Ah, well. If ever you want to try alternatives (again?)...

Rinsing a cup twice a day is so much less bother than messing with disposables, imo.

thank you! :)

and I know what you mean. I just finished my 3rd period since Lexie was born. I was so hoping it would stay away longer. It seems almost normal now the first two 40 days apart and the latest one only 32 days. :(
