Short lived dream???
My freshman year in high school I was told that I would never have kids. 14 years and 3 miscarriages later I just about gave up on ever having any. Last year when my son was I born I was elated & so happy that the dr's were wrong for once. My husband has said on a few occassions that he would like to have another, and so would I. But I haven't had a period AT ALL since I had my son. I have an IUD, but I have been told that I should have some kind of a period. Every so often, there is no rhyme or reason to the schedule, I crave chocolate & fatty foods like I did with my periods, and I get really tired. I've started having hot flashes & night sweats - I had them really bad when I was pregnant. I'm really tired & my iron is severely low. I am scared to go to the dr because I'm afraid she'll tell me that I'm perimenopausal already. Is it possible? Or is it just that my hormones are just as out of whack now as they were in high school?
