On The Bright Side of Things

Today I started my period. Its my first normal period since losing Grace. I must admit I have mixed emotions. Its a slap in to the face reminding me that I'm no longer pregnant. Having a period after losing a baby can be depressing.

I'm trying to look at the positive points this time around. Having my period is making me feel some what normal again and that things still are working. It started on the last possible day so that I'm able to get my blood work done before leaving on our vacation. I'm so glad I will be able to get my blood taken and not have to wait another month like I was fearing. My doctor said I should have the tests results a week after its taken. As well I won't have to deal with my period my whole vacation. I can get the worst of it done before leaving.

I hate my period right now but I am thankful that it came when it did. It will put my mind at ease and hopefully I can enjoy my vacation. I don't want to my sadness and frustration and wondering what is wrong with me to ruin my vacation. My husband and I need this more than anything.
