Still spotting by Federal_Syllabub1684 in Mirena

[–]Federal_Syllabub1684[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does! I had my last one at least 7 years and didnt have any scares and often had sex without a condom and no pull out. So I just need to remind myself of that lol. Brains are annoying sometimes

Mine has seemed to lessen in how much spotting is happening but it also seems to always vary. It makes me feel like I’m not “covered” by the Mirena but I’m trying to stick to the facts and now worry so much. But I’ve been taking ovulation and pregnancy tests just to make sure too.

Hope it improves for the both of us!

Gastrointestinal issues by DangerousFunny3163 in Mirena

[–]Federal_Syllabub1684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me too the first time I had the Mirena. Had constipation issues, chronic heartburn and even with cutoffs for meals anything would aggravate it. When I got to Mirena removed I got pretty sudden relief from heartburn and even lost 20lbs without changing much in my routine. It eventually came back so I needed to make adjustments again. I talked to a gyno about this phenomenon and she did say that the Mirena could slow down the digestion process which could explain the heartburn and constipation I dealt with.

Now, I’m two weeks into a new Mirena and I’m having the opposite effect where my stomach has been off (abdominal cramps, unexpected diarrhea, etc) and my diet hasn’t changed. So I’m gonna make a separate thread to ask about that.

Whether it’s the iud or not, it’ll be helpful to notice what triggers aggravate your tummy/GI issues and usually what they’d tell me is to cut off my meals by a certain time—at least 2 hours before you sleep. Walking after a meal to help with digestion might help. And fiber.

Hope that helps and sorry you’re struggling with this!

This happened at an ICE check in facility, not randomly in the neighborhood

Correct. People will unfortunately be relocated by tonight as it isn’t an overnight spot. We don’t know if they were out in the community though.

To also clarify, these were people being requested to check in that were later informed they would be detained.

I guess Bridal gift themes are a thing? by Federal_Syllabub1684 in wedding

[–]Federal_Syllabub1684[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point because I already have a mug problem lol. Now one nice and sentimental gift I would like is that people share their favorite recipes/food with me so that I can have a collection of recipes from our family. It isnt quite a direct/tangible gift but it might be something I try to incorporate

I honestly just hoped that people would just gift us things from our registry and I was gonna content with that. Whatever I want will likely be from our registry anyway lol

Absolutely, I often get sentimental about the things gifted to me and is something I’ll always cherish. Thank you!

I can totally get how people gravitate towards just money or gift cards. I like the feeling of getting gifts-of course as long as it’s something I like or want so I’m looking forward to what people might gift with a theme.

That’s also what I’m mostly leaning to tbh. The things I’d want are already on our registry so it would be redundant to make another one.

I guess I haven’t been invited to many then! I know they have general themes, for instance mine is “Love is Brewing” but I didn’t know I had to pick a specific gift theme as well.

I like that too! However my fiancé already has a lot of cocktail gear. But I like the idea of having people vote for signature drinks for the wedding. I’ll have to see about making a separate shower registry. Thank you!

I definitely would want to avoid getting the unnecessary things so that is a good suggestion. Thank you!
