Ok, so there I was sitting at the Girl Scout Cookie Meeting (yes, sales start in six weeks), and I started feeling NASTY!! I felt like I was going to pass out.

I drove home (very carefully) and about half-way I started cramping. This sucks!!! I took a shower, thinking the warmth would help, and it made it worse. MAN OH MAN!! I just took a Darvocet and I'm thinking about going to bed with a heating pad...and maybe taking another Darvocet. Could I possibly be getting my period ALREADY?? So soon after the miscarriage?? It's only been ... 29 days...that would be really fast for me...and normally, post pregnancy menses take a while to start. YIKES!! Then again.... it wouldn't surprise me. Did I say how much this sucks???

this is gonna sound strange but.. sometimes when my cramps are real bad i've rubbed ben-gay or another menthol lotion like that into my abdomen and it helps. i have to use a lot and rub it in for a long, long time... so I don't know if it really helps (by relaxing the muscles just under my skin, and therefore maybe helping the others to relax) or if i just make myself think it does... but yeah. it might help.

i usually just do that when meds aren't helping. don't know why i never thought to post it before. it'll make you smell rather minty-fresh for awhile tho...

hope you feel better!
