Progesterone pessaries irritation

Is anyone else on progesterone pessaries and find them very annoying? I am constantly irritated from them and I don’t know what to do about it. Any tips?

I’m also on blood thinning injections and I think I almost prefer them over the progesterone.

I’m taking both of those plus injectable progesterone. The worst are the pessaries and the wax ruins your underwear and clothes. I’m not sure when I stop them but my clothes, body and wallet will be happy 🤣

I totally feel you. I am on the same blood thinners injections progesterone injections. And progesterone pessaries x3 a day. I find I have been having thrush every other week reliably and constantly inserting thrush pessaries my doctor has said you can take as many as you like of those. Just stopped my progesterone injections at 11 weeks but I had been having weekly blood tests to check the levels of progesterone for the doctor to decide to stop the same with pessaries that’s stopping now just before week 12. Winding down to 1 a day I can’t wait. Jsut feels so gross. Blood thinners whole pregnancy and six weeks after.

I feel that, I was on them for just over a week, I found out that the irritation and burning I was feeling was actually an allergic reaction!

I’d talk to your doctor about the symptoms xx

Return to work 🥺🩵

At what age did you ladies go back to work after having your babies? ❤️

My little boy is 8 months old (almost 9), and I’ve recently been offered a really great opportunity to work for a company my friend works for. It’s an opportunity I’m genuinely excited about, but I’m also feeling quite emotional at the thought of leaving my little boy.

I honestly hadn’t really thought about going back to work just yet, as my partner has never once pressured me to find a job or even mentioned me needing to go back. I’ve been really lucky in that sense and have been able to enjoy this time with my baby without that pressure.

Now that an opportunity has come up, it’s made me realise that I might actually have to think about it, and I don’t know if I’m quite ready emotionally! 🥹

I know every mum is different, but I’d love to hear your experiences. How old were your little ones when you went back to work, and how did you find it? Did you feel ready, or did you struggle with the thought of leaving them? 💗

Sex just isn’t the same…

I used to LOvE sex. Was what my man and I would do anytime of day. I just had two babies back to back and now it’s just not the same. I don’t know if it’s postpartum or what. I hate my body first and foremost. I have never been comfortable with my body shape but after these back to back babies I feel like I still look pregnant so getting naked doesn’t feel sexy anymore. My husband says he loves my body, but inside I feel he just says it to make me feel better so I’m more likely to get freaky with him.
On top of body issues I’m F***ing tired! I’m a stay home mom for now (which is new, I have always worked) and with the constant go go go, crying babies, cleaning, stressing, shopping. I’m drained.
I hope things just a phase and I can become more sexually active with my husband. I do try to sleep with him to keep him happy but sometimes it’s just that.
Anyone else having these problems??

!

Has anyone left a relationship with a baby? I’m struggling and I feel it’s the best thing going forward. It’s toxic. I feel alone.

Anyone wanna chat?

At work bored and would love some conversation.

Long periods

I just turn 40 last month. I noticed my period taking longer then normal to start. This month in particular my period is lighter then normal and when I think my period is finished it starts up again. Is there vitamins I can take or should I go on birth control to regulate my period. I also want to try for baby #2 . I'm taking neoQ10 and a prenatal. I got a blood test to check my hormones and thyro and everything came back normal. What can I do to have a normal period again ?

Talking

Is there anybody free to talk?
I have so much on my mind,and nobody to talk to about it.
