Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Or would talking about symptoms, etc, just be TMI?

I'll refrain from details just in case but I just started cycling a month or two ago, the first since my 21 month old was born, and it's different than any other post-baby, or any other time in my life, period. (pun intended )

Seeing that I'm 37 and 11/12ths I wonder if this is the "beggining of the end" and things are changing for good. So I was curious what others have been through or are going through. Hope this is an OK topic.

I'll just mention two very common occurences. I didn't realize until I asked.

1) Cycles get shorter and more frequent. Luteal phase can get shorter, but so can ovulation happen sooner.

2) Flow can get heavy, VERY heavy, and more clots.
