Myself again
Ladies, I lost those 5 pounds I gained over the weekend. But before you hate me for my amazing success with the miraculous 5-day no dessert/no drinking diet, let me hastily assure you that it was only because it was 5 pounds worth of PMS bloating. Which I'd almost forgotten about given that it's been almost TWO YEARS since I experienced it. It has been a long time since I was this happy to have a period, but let me just say here that I am damn happy to have a period! It gives me the most cheerful, optimistic feeling that I have my body back to myself again. I AM still nursing Bean, but only two times a day, when she wakes up and as part of her bedtime routine, and I plan to wean her completely by July. My boobs are totally shrinking back to their miniscule, non-nursing size. I can wear things during the days that don't require access, fer chrissakes! Feel the love, y'all. This is worth having itty bitty ones again.

Yay! I think! I'm not sure which was better, no period due to nursing, or the feeling of being myself again when it came back!
You are a better mama than me! I hated nursing, and felt still pregnant. Eww! I gave 'em both about two months, and then I couldn't do it anymore! Congrats on feeling back to yer old self!
Nice blog-I'm with you on this one, though I wasn't too happy about the boobs turning to silly puddy!
I remember that day too. Like "Hi there body, wow. You still work - how brave of you!"
I'm really hoping my boobs shrink once I stop nursing. Considering that they never grew, they likely won't. Glad to hear you got the 'rag' (ha ha ah haa! the 'rag') again. I know you were wanting it. Do you have a fever or something?
