Funny how things go...

I've not really felt like blogging for ages and to be honest I don't really feel like it now but I wanted to get something off my chest...

On Wednesday this week I was prescribed Zoloft. This mightn't seem like a big deal to lots of people and I know it's only a short term crutch to help me back on my feet but something in the back of my mind makes me feel like a failure, like I couldn't do this on my own, like I wasn't strong or competent enough to handle any of this.... And I hate it.

Post delivery stuff!

Soooooo..... no laptop cause DP's HP mini was dropped at work and he's had this one and so that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

Actually, it's been a combination of the following (I think it will just be easier to dot point):

* An infection turned abscess under my episiotomy site about 10 days after delivery
* Lanced and drained (this abscess was THE SINGLE MOST PAINFUL THING I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED!!!! I can't stress this enough!!!!)
* Abscess comes back three days later and I go in for surgery again to have it drained again.
* Scar tissue and an edema at the durgery site leaves me sore for weeks but getting better.
* Finally get rid of the roids I got after all that pushing. They were awful!!
* Anal fissure is the last thing I'm now tackling..... TMI I'm sorry but when passing number 2's it's like shitting razor blades WITH acid on them!!! God, what must we women endure?!?!!?

Anyway, this stuff is almost all cleared up now. I'm still sore and still feel like there's alot of pressure "down there" but I'm now back into pelvic floor exercises (my OB told me not to do them until now to ewnsure that the tissue and area post surgery was all healed properly), and afrer seeing a surgeon yesterday about my busted bum, I feel a little more confident that things are on the up!

I MUST tell the pg ladies who read this blog to GET ON THE SPINNING BABIES website as soon as you can and do everything in your power to stop your baby becoming posterior!! Don't stress if it doesn't turn, but I wish I had have started the exercises earlier so that I could have had a bit more influence over her position?!?! Then again, it may not have made any difference!!!! lol!!!

You know, after nearly 11 weeks of constant pain and exhaustion and feeling isolated and at timesa bit of a failure, there isn't one second I wouldn't go and do it a million times over again for the same outcome. DD is the bes thing (aside from DP) that has ever happened to me. And in no way has it deterred me from one day trying for a little brother or sister. All the blood, sweat and tears are worth it, no questions asked. And for those who are still TTC, don't ever give up. I know that it feels sometimes like the universe is working against you, but you won't regret your persistence once you'ret there. I promise. And we're with you 100% of the way xxx
