It's really interesting reading your thoughts and I'm glad this has generated some interesting discussion.

I really don't like getting my period either - it's very painful, lasts for ages and it's really heavy. I can also appreciate that each person has their own love/hate relationship with "that time of the month" and that, depending on where you're at in your life, you greet it with different emotions.

I know that for the past few months when I've got my period I've told my DH that "my uterus is crying" because there was no baby in there.

Despite this, I suppose I just can't envisage calling my period a "Her" and making it into "someone" I could get angry at. It's just my body.

XXs to all those LT TTC and to those who long for regular cycles
