Oops I did it again ~

FUCK YEAH LEGOS

also, aks, you mentioned the timing being off with BC by a few minutes. is it really that sensitive, that a few minutes would matter?

Certain pills are like that. The ones I take are progestin-only pills (known as POPs). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progestogen-only_pill This actually says within 3 hours of the time, but all of the literature I get with my pills says they should be taken at the exact same time every day, and I'd rather just play it safe. http://www.webmd.com/drugs/drug-3280...x?drugid=32809 are what I have been taking. "Taking this medication after your evening meal or at bedtime may help if you have stomach upset or nausea with the medication. You may choose to take this medication at another time of day that is easier for you to remember. No matter what dosing schedule you use, it is very important that you take this medication at the same time each day, 24 hours apart."

I think other pills which contain other hormones have much less strict regimens, and some pills you don't take during your period. I really prefer these pills because messing with hormones just really fucks women up. It's bad enough that we have to deal with that shit every month with our periods but when you are giving yourself a dose of an extra hormone like estrogen which will make you horny, weepy, bitchy, and euphoric all at the same time, it can be really fucking confusing and hard to deal with. I personally rarely get that way during my periods but I did last month and I really hated feeling that way, like I had no control over my emotions. I honestly don't know why a lot of women even deal with that kind of shit, but I guess if you can't stick to the strict timeline then the other pills are better for you.

There's so many options though. I'm glad I found one I like, I'll stick with it.



Also, I loooooved playing with legos with my kids. My younger son is very methodical, he has to line everything up just right. He falls into the autism spectrum (but is high functioning) so that's just one of his things, I guess. It was really funny to watch him play and line everything up. My older son was much more chaotic about it.

My mom had to put down their dog today. He was already sickly but stopped eating after my dad died. >.<;

At least the cat is doing alright.

This thread is why I don't want to have kids. You guys convinced me.

Yeah I take the same pill, it has the least hormones so it's least likely to make you a raging bitch. I have an alarm every morning so I take it at the same time, and of course I have to make the update to my alarm when daylight savings time changes and I bet a lot of people actually forget about that. That one is very picky about. If I end up taking it late (has only happened once in 5 years), we use a backup method for three weeks just to be on the safe side.

Just take it in the evening, that's what I do. Less chance of being forgetful or having timeshifts than in the morning. But then I went through three other pills before I found one that didn't either turn me into a psychobitch or a depressive nonfeeler.

I can't take it at night. My schedule at night is in constant flux. I'd rather take my pill in the morning when I know I will be home, rather than have to keep it with me at all times in case I happen to be out. Also if I'm home, I know I will hear my alarm, where I might not if I am out. When I'm driving I never hear my phone.

Morning is much easier for me to manage. Since this pill doesn't mess with my insides at all, it's perfect.
