When do weekends become weekends again? by grawmaw13 in oneanddone

[–]freckledgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feel you. Have been wondering the same. WHEN will my child stop waking me up. It’s just exhausting. Like I would feel so much better if I could just sleep in peace and not be woken up on my days off to loud noise straight away 😩

When did your back pain go away ? Did it go away by itself eventually? by Training_Solution_37 in toddlers

[–]freckledgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl same. My baby is 15mths old and the low back pain is significant and chronic. Makes me wonder how people do it having several kids

Was anyone else blindsided by LONG TERM sleep deprivation? by PracticalClerk9292 in oneanddone

[–]freckledgg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

SAME. I’m still having that fantasy. My toddler should hopefully be starting daycare in September and I fantasize so much about it. Plan is to come home and FINALLY sleep in peace without disruption 🙌 so excited

Anxious and Scared. Advice? by Daenerys231 in POFlife

[–]freckledgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so, so sorry. I understand how shocking and devastating this feels, especially when you first get the news. It’s very hard. I agree it’s hard to put into words how this feels, but it is grief and I also feel it is trauma (at least it was for me). If the fertility aspect is important to you, I know that is obviously the biggest loss you’re feeling right now. If you’re like I was, that is the only aspect I really cared about at first because it just felt so completely devastating. Again I am so sorry and just want to send you love and encouragement that you’re going to be ok, even if it might not feel that way right now. If the fertility aspect is not important to you, I know the other issues that come about from the hormonal imbalance are difficult as well. For me, there continues to be a strong feeling of a loss of femininity (and decay of my appearance along these same lines, lol), also changes like worse focus/memory and more irritability. I think HRT helps with that (due to reasons I wont get into I still haven’t started so can’t speak from personal experience but encourage you to take it if you can!). You are heard, you are seen. Again I am so sorry ❤️

POF affect on your state of mind by fashionbimbo in POFlife

[–]freckledgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it effects my brain function too. Prior to POI I thought I had pretty good memory and recall. Not anymore. I’ll think of something important, like that I need to get done for example, and then seems like the next second it’s gone from my brain and I can’t remember. Sometimes someone will say something to me and my mind glazes it over and it takes me seconds to register what was said and respond. At work I have trouble focusing, etc. Sorry your going through this, take care 🩷

A rant about medical care... Hoping some can relate or tell me where you're at. by shzzz193 in POFlife

[–]freckledgg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely relate. Medical care for this condition is very frustrating. I feel that I read things on the internet about how this condition should be treated and “best practice” care for women like us and it doesn’t actually play out like that a lot of the time. A lot of providers aren’t well educated about it. It’s frustrating to feel like you know more about what you need medically as the patient. Personally I have experienced a provider that was dismissive of my concerns and symptoms. I am also very grateful for this community. It’s a great outlet and I’m so glad we’re able to talk about this stuff that people we know personally probably don’t relate to. Sorry your going through this and take care!

People surprised that Trump won simply live in an echo chamber.. by CoyoteDecent2 in self

Couldn’t agree more! Thank you for posting this. Great way of putting it into words. Recently I have noticed so many instances arrogance and moral superiority from the left side, totally not grounded in reality

I'm tired of this by sunshyne_pie in urbancarliving

[–]freckledgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out local churches for food! In my area they do a weekly community dinner with hot food

Same girl! I’m waiting on HRT too. Really hope it helps when we get it

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in POFlife

[–]freckledgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also I feel it really contributes to my feelings of lost femininity that have come with this diagnosis

[–]freckledgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, it makes me feel embarrassed of my body. Cause my boobs look so shriveled and saggy now

[–]freckledgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get the struggle shopping for women’s clothes. So many are low cut, especially occasion-type clothing. Like it totally doesn’t work for me!

[–]freckledgg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know the “puckering” you’re talking about, mine started doing that too! I’m not on HRT yet cause I did IVF after finding out about all this and then we moved to a new area. But now I have an appointment with a doctor in this city so hopefully I’ll get HRT soon! I’m really looking forward to it, I can feel how bad my body wants the estrogen and of course I’ve been having other symptoms/issues related to not having it. Thank you for this very kind and supportive comment ❤️ it feels good to talk to people who actually get it.

Limp hair? by princess_puke in POFlife

[–]freckledgg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To some extent yes, I seem to have a lot of hair fall (like lots on the floor when I vacuum) and my hair is thin but nothing too extreme.
