In the end I came to the conclusion that a baby is the result of parents not arguing for a month.
Oh, nice! Logical.
Back problems, for one. And also, once you're past a certain point, finding clothes that won't end in disaster could be difficult.
Oh yeah. I don't get the back things, but just at my size, clothing isn't fun. My mum was digging through the clearance rack at walmart or some such place and brought back a bunch of tank top things for me in various sizes, and even the x-large wouldn't . . . hold me in. I also bought this really pretty dark red velvet top thing a few years ago, but it had tape residue on one shoulder, so I never wore it because I never got around to getting it off. Finally I did, but by then the little diamond eyelit hole thing it had in the chest stretched open so far when I tried to wear it that you can see pretty much the innner third of each of my boobs. Which wouldn't totally stop me from wearing it, because it's not so big as to be totally slutty (okay, it is sorta, but I'd still probably wear it because I love the shirt), but you can see my bra through the hole. Not fun.
See, if I was that heavy I'd be too damn uncomfortable to use tampons. Sure, pads are annoying the way they need to be changed more often (I think), and can feel pretty yuck if your flow is heavy, but I'd feel more secure with them.
Probably. I don't notice the tampons at all, though, which is good. The times that I have pads on, every time I move I can feel it. And they're more messy, which is indeed yuck. And if you're in somebody else's bathroom, wrapped up tampons are easier to hide amongst the trash so as not to advertise your "feminine issues". But they are indeed less secure. Which is troublesome.
I've got cramps like whoa, only they're sharper than they've been recently, so it's like someone's stabbing me in the gut as opposed to my uterus thrashing chucking a tantrum in the form of a persistent dull ache. That's probably because this is the first period I've had since going off the birth control.
Aww. That's horrid. It's like withdrawal from birth control. Mine, being the first one while on it, is being a similar bitch.
I've been thinking about it, and I did notice positive changes. My favourite was the fact that I knew the exact day to expect my period, and didn't have to worry about being sprung. The only downside were the increased cramps.
That's good, then. I tend to usually be able to tell when mine is coming up pretty well, though the exact day still is a mystery most of the time. But the cramps actually increased while you were on it? Everything I've heard tells me that they're supposed to decrease. My body was telling me differently, however. That was earlier, though in this ELEVEN DAY FARKING PERIOD that I've got going on now. Because it was all "Oh, I'm going to slow down like I'm stopping like normal after about five days. But no, fake out, now you're going to bleed like it's the second day again! *evil cackle*" I kinda want to stab something.
