Ok, Now that I am done with my active pills and have committed to the concept of not picking up a new pack, I have decided to see what the internet believes I am in for as I transition to a pill-less stage of my life:
Acne: That sucks. I already look young, I don't need to look adolescent.
Breast Tenderness: What else is new?
Increased Sex Drive: YAY (ish). My libido has been feeling really low lately and it would be nice to tap back into that side of me (there has to be a pun involving tapping that ass-side of me but I can't quite make it work). Sex drive is a good thing when trying to make a bebe.
Downside: I have always had a higher sex drive than the Hubs, so this could throw it even more out of whack.
Heightened Emotions: Dammit! I was hoping that going off BC would make me less emotional not more. Ah well. It's something to try to be aware of when I start feeling the cray come on.
Heightened Sense of Smell: hmmmm, we'll see how that goes. Late summer garbage smell in the city will be extra excellent.
Weight Loss: alright.
Cramping: Also not exciting. I had horrible cramping before BC. True story: I once accidentally ODed on Midol. It can happen.
No Period/ Heavier Period/ Constant Spotting: conflicting reports, guess it's different for everyone.
Semi-Immediate Pregnancy: skeptical.
3 is a Magic Number: Hormones will leave my system and I may ovulate within three days, I will most likely be back to an even keel in 3 months.
Also a lot of scary misinformation and smug natural living people. I need to stop looking around before I really work myself up.
