Pregnancy avoidance....is this really worth it?

Dude...what is UP with my hormones? This is a tad personal, just FYI. So, in July I had an IUD put in because Brian and I can't seem to agree if we want more kids or not. So, I had this device inserted into my nether regions to buy us some time before anything permanent happens. Everyone I know with one, has NO problems. So, why do I have to have all of the problems? Firstly...I suffer from migraines...and one of the side effects is migraines. So, I've had a magraine a day since July, and ran out of my migraine meds. I call in my prescription....and guess what. They don't make it anymore. SO, now I'm waiting to see if my doc will send them a new one...or if I have to go see him.

Secondly...I'm on a constant roller coaster of emotions. I'm not sure if I'm happy, sad, mad, etc. One minute I'm breezing by, the next I'm madder than hell. Lovely.

Lastly....my body obviously doesn't want the thing in there b/c I'm cramping all the damn time, and gross things are happening down there. I'm half tempted to just get the sucker removed and take my chances. Then again....no I'm not. I love my kids, but one more of them and I may run off to a place unknown. (If I name the place here, and I run off, they'll find me...get it?)

Oh well....I'll see how I feel in 4 months...that is when all these side effects are supposed to subside afterall.
