Happy Monday! (yeah I know it’s now Tuesday..)

While I’ve had harder weeks, last week was extremely disconnected. There was all the hospital stuff and much to my surprise, I don’t feel better this week. I have extreme cramping. It occurs to me that all of the prodding of my uterus would maybe lead to some cramping, I have also discovered that having a coil inserted can result in a couple (ok up to six) weeks of ‘mild period pain’. Reader, I don’t have mild period pain, I spent years thinking that I was being a drama queen about it but I’m not, it’s not mild, I’m not going to pretend otherwise! It’s better today than it was yesterday, but I really need it to ease off because I can’t keep crunching paracetamol and the other thing that helps my cramps is alcohol, neither are good for my liver!

I did get to Charles and Eileen’s for dinner on Friday evening and Ma and I were briefly at the plot on Saturday (rain stopped play!), on Sunday I popped over to Christina and Fred’s for coffee and croissant and playing with their delightful 2 year old, she’s a dote, I also got to briefly cuddle the second baby too.

For the weekend not involving that, I was at home with a hot water bottle.

The rest of this week is devoted of work, feeling better and catching up with laundry.

Have a good week!
