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.

LisaR, I am totally going through this right now too and my youngest is 14mo. I don't remember it around 4 months but I have been a mess the past few days (but on and off for the past few months). I keep thinking I am pregnant but haven't had a period yet. I feel like another person and that I am on an emotional roller coaster! I am so glad you brought this up Molly!

I have been a hormonal mess since I was 13 years old (time of my first period). I am a total crazy woman (crying for no reason, yelling for no reason, very irritated over nothing, etc) for about 5 days out of every month, though just with in the last year or so, I've been able to temper it a bit.

I've tried lots of different things but the only thing that works for me is to pray the rosary every day, exercise every day and cut out refined sugar. I use Leslie Sansone's Walk at Home DVD's for my exercise. I still have weight to lose but I have dropped quite a bit using the program. I do the 5 mile walk DVD every day but Sunday. This combination has seemed to calm me down AND I don't have cramps or bloating that I used to have every cycle.

It is VERY hard to find the time to do the workout and pray but I feel that I HAVE no other choice. In order for me to be the kind of wife and mother I want to be, I must do this for myself.

I will pray for you ladies. The ups and downs are no fun.

((hugs))
