what were cramps (much like period cramps) for two mornings in a row turned into full-blown nausea by yesterday afternoon. now, i'm trying to think objectively here, because for the past several months i've had a couple of menstrual cycles during which i felt like crap for the whole week before i got my period. the first time this happened, in january, i was convinced i was pregnant. obviously i wasn't. and then it happened again, not as badly, another time. so now i'm trying to remember how that feeling compared to what i've been feeling the past couple of days, and whether or not i'm exaggerating how i'm feeling now because i already suspect (and am inwardly hopin) that i am pregnant. i definitely think i'm more physically nauseated than i was on those other occasions. i remember feeling "odd" in my stomach and having some aversions to food then, but this is different. yesterday afternoon when my husband and i were shopping i was so light-headed i had to leave the store, and last night i had nausea coming in waves that made me actually think i might vomit. folks, i don't vomit. the last time was in 2001, when i was on muscle relaxers after surgery. prior to that it was in 1998, when i mixed some disagreeable alcoholic beverages at a party. even when i get a stomach virus, it comes out the other end.
when i first woke up early this morning i still felt sick, but now i feel fine. so... yeah. i'm not doing the best job not thinking about this.
