Horrible feelings.....

I am 9weeks post partum.. I got the depo shot and I havent stopped bleeding since I gave birth..but now I have horrible cramps to go with it..
Lets just say I dont feel much like a woman lately.. My spouse and I havent had sex in over 3 months, im so bloated I still look pregnant.. I hate the way I look and feel. And since he knows I prob wont stop bleeding til this shot wears off, I feel like he might get used to us not being intimate and we all know what happens if you cant.keep them happy... I mean he has not cheated before, but thats a looong time to go without sex..and being on your period for 4-5 months will do something to ya..

If he would cheat on you for not being able to have sex, then your marriage is already troubled.

And if I were I would NOT get another depo shot. It made me bleed for the first three months and gain more than 50 pounds in three months. I only got two of the injections then i stopped because I didn't like how it made me feel. So two shots, 6 months of depo, and I didn't ovulate again for two years after that. That shot should be taken off the market.

Idk bout the drop stuff but have u talked to him bout the no sex thing? I kinda have an idea how u feel bout that part but like AP said cheating shouldn't even be something to worry bout. U said he never has so chances are he never will ull feel better soon Cheer up mama I'm going on no sex in 3 months n pelvic rest regardless n hubby says he'll wait as long as it takes. Good luck hope the deposit gets straightened out

Its prob just how I feel..we are best friends and have been since we were 15. He is a great guy.. But I feel horrid..and my dr said there is nothing he can do about it..i wish I would have known I would be cramping and bleeding like this. I just want to be me again..

We all have our moments. Hubby tried to be sexy last night n I had to shoot him down it makes me feel like a terrible wife/woman n sometimes I think he should cheat tbh. He won't though bc he loves me n this will pass. Same w urs maybe stop taking the depo n use condoms for awhile until ur cycle is back to normal. N maybe since u took one shot it'll snap back quicker?

Are you breastfeeding, if you are that should help a ton with getting your previous shape back. It burns 500 calories a day and causes your uterus to return to normal size very quickly.
Have you gotten the go ahead from your doctor for working out and stuff. Excersize releases endorphins which will make you feel a lot better as well as getting your body closer to pre-baby.
But seriously, get off the depo and try something esle. That stuff is awful!

try being intimate in other ways.....sometimes men just want to be ''touched'' as much as women do, its not only about sex. after this long w/o sex it shouldnt take to much ''stimulation'' for a ''good time'' .....hang in there momma!
