On a low

So I've woke up this morning spotting again! Bloated with an icky feeling, I'm playing my oscar performance for my daughters sake, when all i want to really do is hide in the corner with a hot water bottle and a chick flick. Instead I'm smiling and wincing with pain, playing doctors, reading books being sat on. With every movement I'm getting more paranoid, I'm not spotting enough for a pad so its a panty liner. I've had a zapain.

Just on a low one day, mental health is high

Hey hun,

I’m so sorry you’re going through this 💔🥺 it sounds like you’re doing amazing.

I find it so hard to keep up with the demands of life, work chores social life etc while struggling with this condition… so my hat goes off to anyone in parenthood with it!!!

Do you have anyone to reach out to to help with care so that you can take care of yourself even for a few hours?? I know it’s easier said than done :/

In any case just know you’re doing the best you can given a really tricky circumstance that not many people without a chronic illness would even understand! Well done

Here for you always ❤️
