Hello Everyone:
I am hoping that this note finds everyone in decent spirits. I just have a handful of strange things going on that I can't quite comprehend and I was wondering if anyone else had ever noticed similar symptoms. First of all let my start by saying that on February 6th I was advised that my baby's heart had stopped beating on January 30th. On February 9th I had my D&C. Anyway, here's what's going on....
First of all, quite some time ago (at least a year and a half ago) I began noticing that whenever I lifted anything of significant weight I had this odd sharp pain on my low abdomen right around where my scar from my C-Section is. The odd thing about this pain is that once I notice it, it seems to last for 3 to 4 days, it hurts to sit down and it hurts to stand up. Well after having my D&C done the pain or better yet the area in which the pain occurs has extended. It is in the same area BUT now it also reaches of the way up to my belly button in a straight line. I dont know if something occurred during the D&C that made matters worse but God does it suck (pardon the French). I hate feeling like I cant pick anything up, especially my daughter. Over a year ago I brought it to my OB/GYNs office, they did an Ultrasound to check and make sure that my IUD wasnt causing the problem and they also checked for a Hernia at the same time. They determined that my IUD was fine and that if I do indeed have a hernia it must have been a small one because they couldnt see anything.
My second odd issue is in regards to my left breast. I have had pain in my left breast off and on for the past two weeks. The pain has primarily been on the left side of my breast; however I have noticed it on the top of my breast also. Sometimes it hurts when my arm brushes against my breast and sometimes it doesnt bother me at all. I just dont get it.
Finally, my last issue is in regards to how my body seems to be reacting to the stress of my miscarriage. It seems as though whenever I try to talk about my loss, my ears begin ringing, I get dizzy and my vision gets kinda screwy.
Anyway, I just wanted to drop everyone a note to see if anyone else had ever noticed anything similar to what I have mentioned above or if I'm all alone in this game. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my book. Take care and be good to yourselves!

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
