Dear Uterus, I went to the doctor again today to try to resolve my newest problem. He referred me to a urologist and gave me yet another medicine to try.
I've lost all of the weight I gained this pregnancy, now just to lose the few I gained from the meds. I'm happy to be down to my more normal size again, and at the same time it's another thing that marks an ending to this whole journey of babies.
My milk dried up a couple weeks ago, the baby weight is gone... It's like baby boy never happened.
My new OB was busy, so I saw another doctor in his practice today.
This doctor was equally shocked when he realized I was still alive after DIC. He said, and I quote: "Usually we find out someone had DIC at their wake. I'm lucky to be talking to you today."
It's still surreal a bit to me. I really quite literally came inches away from death.
Knowing that makes part of me want to do what I want, where I want, and how I want. The other part of me wants to hide in a hole, sealed inside a plastic bubble.
-Michelle
