Hello Hivers! How are you doing? Hopefully, you are all doing great and blessed. I want to share a little bit about what I was feeling and experienced.

You can see his excited face and very happy to be able to swim at the hotel, the last time he swam was when we went to my brother's house in Surabaya.
I don not want when I feel sick and my child also stays at home.

Talking about girls, I'll be a little open, okay? Let’s get straight to the topic! All girls experience menstrual cycles and before menstruation occurs, there is something called the period before menstruation. Not only does menstruation actually become a problem for women, but the period before menstruation or this is also known as Premenstrual Syndrome also turns out to be a problem. This problem in the sense that there are unpleasant symptoms that are occurring in our body so that it also affects the hormones in it, many things in women, such as mood, emotions and feelings become more dominant and can change easily.

I think this should no longer be a taboo nowadays. I think men should also know this because having a relationship cannot be separated from women and there is nothing wrong with men even having to know about this, even this can be a good and positive things. Do you agree with me? Especially if you are a married couple, of course the husband should understand and comprehend the conditions experienced by his wife as a woman.

Just enjoy the ride, right?:D

I just experienced this. Let's try to discuss it a little bit, shall we? I am a typical woman who experiences pre-menstrual symptoms which really affect my body and what is inside me because there are some woman do not experience it, like my mother, she doesn't really feel the premenstrual symptoms.

Physically, my breasts will harden, enlarge and feel sore or painful. That is one of the symptoms that I will experience menstruation in the near future. Another symptom is that I feel like I want to eat a lot. Yes, my appetite seems to have increased. As often as possible I really want to eat or snack on something, especially foods that taste salty. I will buy salty and seasoned snacks. I do not feel like my stomach gets full easily so that definitely affects my weight.

Apart from physically, I will experience changes in mood and emotions as well as uncertain feelings. For example, my mood will quickly change from happy to sad in a short time. My emotions are also a little unstable, I tend to get emotional quickly or get angry and annoyed easily when facing situations. Not only big things but also small things can make me annoyed and make me feel like getting angry.

The view that afternoon, the sky with the pool was amazing

Sometimes I realize when things are like this, I get annoyed so easily. If there is just one thing that I do not feel comfortable with, I will feel annoyed and very disappointed. Yes, I really experienced that. Actually, this condition is unpleasant. My feelings are also more sensitive, so often the one affected by this is my husband. Sometimes, I look for my own problems so that I can pay more attention or small things that can turn into something big or a problem. That is really troublesome, isn’t it? Well, that's why, as I said, men should also understand this so that there is more comprehension, so that there are no problems or misunderstanding, and the household becomes harmonious.

These are still symptoms before the period, you can see that there are a lot of problems experienced, right? Being a woman is not easy, trust me! I sometimes talk to my husband, if I could choose maybe I would like to be a man rather than a woman. Men are not as complicated as this, not experiencing symptoms before menstruation, menstruation, or even pregnancy and childbirth. The whole process was very heavy. But, oh, don't...! That's a very wrong thought. If I did not become a woman, I wouldn't be like this now as I am now. I will not become a strong person and prove that I am stronger than men. I can go through it all, pain and much more. It all makes me a strong and confident person. I can feel being a wife and a mother, and I would be more appreciated and respected. Women are strong. They cry easily but they are stronger than anything, their feelings are soft but they are tougher than anyone.

I took this photo when I was feeling stomachache and for my son, not getting bored at home I kept myself strong. Eventhough I was sitting there and staring at the pool LOL. Spirit on fire!! ^^

This is not a problem during the menstruation yet. Physically, you will feel stomach pain which is quite torturous for several days, hip pain and decreased appetite. There is also a feeling of not wanting to do anything, aka just wanting to be lazy, just laying in bed and not being in the mood to do anything.
Being a woman is not easy, therefore men should be able to respect even protect women. Not the opposite, body shaming, degrading, disrespecting and harassing women as we often know and perhaps experience. I've experienced that. That is very unkind and impolite.

Coincidentally, I've experienced it twice. I remember the first one when I was young when I was in high school. At that time I was wearing shorts and a normal t-shirt and was riding/driving my own motorbike. The incident happened during the day, though. Then, when I turned towards my house block, I felt there was a motorbike following me. I was driving slowly and suddenly the person on the motorbike passed me slowly and touched my thigh and then immediately left on his motorbike quickly. . I was immediately shocked and could not say anything or do anything. I really wanted to say dirty words to him but my mouth just remained silent in shock. I still did not expect to experience that so I was really speechless and did not know what to do.

My second experience was when I already had children. Just imagine, bad people do not see that they are young or not, they do not see age. In the morning, I was with my child, pushing stroller and it was around my housing area. Suddenly, when I was walking around pushing the stroller, a motorbike approached me beside me, and the person riding grabbed my butt from behind and squeezed it, then he quickly sped off on his motorbike. It was a very traumatic experience for me. Once again, I just could not do anything at that moment. It was so terrible and I was so traumatized. I still did not believe it how could that happen. Indeed, as women we have to be more alert and not appear weak. In facing any situation, we should be able to be tough and strong for ourselves.

Well, just for him, I took him to the swimming pool at the hotel. When we arrived at the swimming pool, he immediately wanted to take off his clothes and plop down because he was so excited. This picture was with my cousin's daughter. Her name is Chelsea.

At that time, my cousin invited me to leave the house for a moment. She asked my son to swim at the hotel. She also brought her daughter so they could swim together there. Actually, I was very lazy to leave the house because my stomach still hurts when it was my period, but for the sake of my child who likes swimming, I want to go too. I think being at home is also very boring. For real, that I just stayed at home feeling stomach ache and lying down? My son also felt bored for just being at home and not going anywhere. It was a holiday and we were supposed to go somewhere to refresh.

A view like this is too bad to be missed, isn't it?

Finally I decided to go and enjoy a moment outside, especially since it's an activity that my child likes, swimming.
Finally, we went to a hotel called Ascent Hotel. From there I could see the view from above and see the train passing nearby. The view is nice and the swimming pool at the hotel is also nice. My son really enjoyed swimming there and he enjoyed his time, me too.

The swimming pool was not crowded with visitors, so they could enjoy swimming freely.

Adorable little boy😍♥️

Thank you, aunty ^^ haha
Have a nice day!

Of course, we have to endure the pain, keep on with activities that will make our children be happy, and see the good side of things. There are months when we feel this period stronger, and all the hormone changes make us more vulnerable and sensitive, but I am also sure those partners who care already know us well, know how to recognize this stage and help us. I am sorry about those bad experiences you had. But those people are not worth your time and your frustration. Take care and greetings :)

oohh... You made my morning...!! :')
