The best part of having an IUD is not-bleeding every four weeks. And it's BEEN great, almost without fail, for almost three and a half years.
Today however, it feels like a year's worth of menstrual cramps are trying to happen in one afternoon/evening.
I didn't even realize that I've been clenching my belly muscles all day till now, when I'm in the tub, and am having to notice, release. Notice I'm clenched, then release.
I love my life, and today was a delightful vacation day for Jeff and we played hooky and drove to the coast,found some wine tastings and DELICIOUS food, and I got to put my feet in the ocean.
But this? Shit, I've forgotten how awful this baloney always was.
Gonna soak another ten minutes and then try again to get to sleep.
Oy.

When I'm Empress of the Universe everyone with a uterus shall receive subsidized and rapid treatment for all the bullshit those things cause, up to and including removal if the uterus owner wishes it, with paid time off work to get it done and no stupid questions about whether you'll want to use that aggravating lump of flesh later.
