I feel your pain... no, I mean, right now... I feel it (ya got me?)<BR/><BR/>Mumfies, I have one of those cups (I'll try anything really!). They are really good but not for your heavy days and if you do get it wrong when you empty it... let's just say the slaughterhouse reference doesn't do it justice, especially if you accidentally bump it all down the inside of your pants leg. Sometimes I'm glad I work at home lol.<BR/><BR/>Since I had Master 12, mine have been shocking. Before that, no problems. Right now... I need a panadol and a lie down... but I'll need to get up in about 2 hours for a tyre and oil change if you catch my drift. And so it will go for the next 4 days.<BR/><BR/>What really pisses me off is that tampons attract GST because they are a non-essential item according to the previous government. Oh Johnny, could you just come here a minute, I've got something to show you... YOU DICKHEAD!!<BR/><BR/>Did I mention I feel your pain??

Well, the writing, not the subject.<BR/>Did you know there is such a thing known as a "menstrual cup"? It is for those weirdo hippie types I think. It's like a thimble and you empty out "the flow" (as the brochure says), wash and reinsert. Yick. How DISGUSTING. It's supposed to be more environmentally friendly.<BR/>I wonder if these people use disposable or cloth nappies for their babies. People are not environmentally friendly.<BR/>I didn't know that snippet about the middle finger!Mumfieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378295580244795773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17747834.post-85077553397524252862008-06-02T15:49:00.000+10:002008-06-02T15:49:00.000+10:00**TMI ALERT**<BR/><BR/><I>If you're a woman who really doesn't mind getting your period every 28 days - give or take a day or two - please let me in on your secret.</I><BR/><BR/>I dunno, my periods used to be absolutely horrid but after my 2nd child was born (via VBAC and much much worse bleeding than any period), it got much better. Hardly any cramping at all.

I started late to begin with and was one of those people who never had cramps. When your birth was getting near the doctor told me the start would feel like cramps and I had to ask what they felt like. I may have gotten cranky, but I don't remember it. And I never stopped doing anything I wanted to do. Menopause wasn't too bad either, but I could have done without those hot flashes.<BR/>You are right about there not being any cure though. You can't watch television over here without seeing an ad for Viagra, Cialis or a few others. And then there are the Avodart commercials. The male dominated medical research profession has spent an awful lot of time solving their own problems. I think the only way women will get equal time is when we flood the profession with as many females as possible. Although, knowing women, we'll probably be looking at more life threatening issues first.Momma Mooseletnoreply@blogger.com
