Wow. Symptoms change so quickly from one day to the next. Up until now I've sort of felt a little yucky, but nothing to write home about.
1. Light cramps, but nothing like AF cramping. They were more like I ate something I shouldn't have. LOL.
2. Sore nipples. Yeah. I said it. So what. Taking a bra off is torture, nevermind actually touching one. Yikes!
3. Hot flashes have been showing up here and there, but I've been nervous lately, so I assumed it was just me being a dweeb about life. Wait. Do people still say "dweeb"? Do you even know what that is? Never mind.
Anyway, a little of this, a little of that...and then today? Boom. Everything became exacerbated.
4. Away go the light cramps...in come the real deal. They're not too bad, but less than pleasant I'd say.
5. Boobs with the fullness of implants. As I was getting undressed today, heading for my typical "uniform" of yoga pants and a soft tee, I noticed the hubs checking me out with his eyebrows up. "Something?" I asked. "Well...uh..those are new." And then he pointed to my engorged rack. I checked them out in the mirror and holy poo, batman! I started with DDDs, so these took me quite by surprise! I brought my hands up to sorta feel up the swelling and I swear they felt like fresh implants! Kinda firm, new to me. Ha!
6. A drastic increase in the importance of cake. Need I say more?
7. Night sweats. Why does my thermostat say 69 degrees, my hubs is wrapped like a burrito next to me, and I'm splayed out under a full blast fan?
Now I'm sure that any one or more of these symptoms could be attributed to the mass amounts of estrogen coupled with the moderate progesterone I'm shooting up. But, I choose to think these are all good signs relating to pregnancy. Only 5 more days to go!
