I feel like my life is made up of one big ball of stress.
I started having pregnancy symptoms over three weeks ago. Every single symptom. One week is PMS, two weeks, kinda stretchin' it, but still could be PMS, three weeks... that's definitely suspicious. I'm not pregnant, though. Just WEIRD.
Symptoms for pregnancy and PMS are mostly the same... but having to pee every 10 minutes... I thought for sure that one was just pregnancy (it's also a symptom of a UTI but I don't have one of those). Whatever. It's like the little boy who cried wolf--I won't believe my body when I actually am pregnant.
Anyway, I'm pretty impressed with myself for this semester. Much learning, and good grades. But I am so ready for finals to be over and to get a little breather from school. I've been breaking out pretty badly, probably from stress. And going to bed at odd times, like 7 p.m. Bleh.
I'm trying to get up at 6 every morning to work out... and it's working great! Except instead of working out I've been doing homework.
My landlords are back, which means my incredibly annoying neighbors are leaving. Yes! I guess I didn't realize how much I hate having neighbors until I came to the city... of Rexburg.
Heh, Anton's alarm just went off, and I told him he better get up and go to class, to which he replied, "Hate trees!" As in, "I hate trees." Not sure what that was about. He does say some pretty funny things when he's sleep talking. Half the time it's in Russian and I have no idea what it means.
So excited for the nice weather, finally! And for our garden. It's going to be great! Anton wants to can stuff from our garden, because we'll definitely have an abundance of food. Guess I'll add a pressure cooker to the list of things I need to save up for. (And learn how to use).
Are you sure you're not pregnant (i.e., have you taken a pregnancy test)? Peeing a lot could also mean Diabetes, and I know that my ex step mother (who had diabetes) was PMS-y ALL the time.
ReplyDeleteDon't feel too awfully bad. I've had every symptom and not been pregnant too. Recently. It's sad to have morning sickness for no reason. I finally decided that the frequent peeing was probably really the beginning of a uti (I've had several of those too) and just took cranberry and garlic with a bunch of water just in case. Worked. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteOh! And sometimes the regular pregnancy tests can be wrong...if you're still not sure you can have a blood test done at the Student Health Center. Unless your period is back...then you're right. Also, having infrequent periods is sometimes a sign of infertility, not that you are...
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm sure I'm not pregnant. Also sure I'd be in a coma right now if it were diabetes. I've been taking cranberry, but I still have to go all the time--I'm wondering if having a UTI for three years just permanently damaged my urinary tract. The infertility I already suspected... but it's okay. I'll still have kids.
ReplyDeleteThe only home pregnancy tests that are pretty unreliable are blue dye ones. Pink dye tests are extremely accurate. I wouldn't go get a blood test if I had a negative pink dye test (blood tests are no fun to begin with).
ReplyDeleteAlso, I don't know if you're actually trying to get pregnant or not, but they say that a couple under the age of 35 don't need to see a doctor until it's been a year of trying (I think a lot of people think it's 6 months, but that's only if you're over 35). I'm sure it's different if you have irregular periods.
