Update since removal:
I had the Mirena removed on Saturday evening. I just wanted to report that I felt so great last night. My husband said he hadn't gotten that much affection in 3 months from me! And we didn't even have sex.. LOL! I was just in such a great mood, and had so much energy I couldn't stop cleaning and playing with my kids!
Today I'm not as ecstatic, but that may be because my daughter woke me up 6 times last night, and both my kids are sick. But the good news is, despite my difficult day, I'm not in a state of despair. Ordinarily I would be crying, or trying to have a nap while my kids are napping. Instead I am doing laundry and writing to you all.
Some bleeding last night and today, but no pain or cramping. My joints are still really sore today, but I didn't expect it to disappear overnight. I just can't believe how I'm in control of my emotions!
