It's Thursday and it has a theme!
ADVICE
People are full of it, and gosh darn, they just can't keep it to themselves. Make no mistake about it, if you want some, or better still, if you don't, then there are words of wisdom (or more likely, not) just ready and waiting to burst out of the mouths of not only those close to you but complete strangers too!
This week, Jenn has requested that those of us taking part in Theme Thursday impart some advice on to you, our lovely blog readers. And so, without further ado, I will advise you about something that is very close to my heart right now.
First of all though, let me ask you this:
Do you enjoy feeling in control of your moods?
Do you consider yourself to be able to experience the full range of human emotion but not necessarily feel the need to demonstrate thus within a one hour window?
Have you lost all your baby weight and do you feel quite comfortable in your new post-baby body?
Are you relishing having 28 year old skin, because despite the beginnings of fine lines and wrinkles you are no longer plagued by teenage acne?
Is knowing when you're going to be bleeding pv information that you consider useful, nay essential for the planning of your life?
Do most of your clothes fit you?
Indeed, have you already bought a pretty size 12 dress to wear to your best friend's wedding that you'd actually like to wear to said wedding without needing to have parts of your body surgically removed in order to fit into it?
If you have answered "yes" to any of the above questions then my advice to you is do not, I repeat DO NOT get the mirena coil.
This piece of wisdom was brought to you by a bloated, emotionally labile, spotty, one stone heavier than normal, 28 year old who has to carry a range of sanitary protection with her at all times.

Ouch. I didn't know what the mirena coil is, but after googling it I know too much. I will take your advice and stay away from it!
ReplyDeleteThat doesn't sound very fun. Off to google the coil so I know what to avoid!
ReplyDeleteGood to know someone is taking my advice on board for a change! ;) It really has wreaked havoc on my body but then I think that applies to all hormonal contraception to be honest :/

ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if maybe it has different name in the US and that's why neither of you have heard of it? It's technical name is an IUS, it's just a longer term more reliable form of contraception than say the pill but with added side effects (for me anyway!) :/
ReplyDeleteI have a Mirena, but it's not a coil. And now that I think about it, my skin did start acting up around the same time...
