Alright, so I've decided that since there is a possibility I may be pregnant, I should start writing down my symptoms and how i've been feeling every day. Just to see if anything new pops up.

To start, if I am pregnant I should be around 13-14 weeks. So far i've been having the following symptoms:

Fatigue - This one has been big time, I used to be able to stay up until 1am, though recently i've been going to bed sometime between 10
pm and 12 am.  Also, I get tired a lot during the day, and could probably take a few naps if it wasn't for the whole work thing.

Nausea - Though i've only puked once, I have felt sick to my stomache a lot. Especially to the thought of food. Now if this was only going on for a week, i'd say maybe I was getting sick? But it's been going on for over a month. It gets really annoying feeling sick to your stomache most days.

Cramping - This is a daily thing for me. I keep getting pains in my lower abdomen. It's annoying and sometimes really painfull. Though most of the time it's just a dull ache that doesn't go away. >.> I hate it. It makes it hard to sleep and concentrate at work.

Sensitivity to smells - This has been going on for about a month. When i'm at work, or other places I notice smells really get to me. They also tend to trigger nausea. Lately it's been any chicken products and the chilli at work that REALLY make me sick. As well as this effin pizza my dad brought home one night. I thought I was going to puke as soon as I smelt it. Bleh.  I do find that smells like this one lotion called "sensual amber" really really calm my tummy. Which is why I picked up a small bottle of it at bath and body tonight.

No period - Well this one is a HUGE give away, though I never have had a normal period, still, i've at least always GOTTEN a period. It's been over 2 months now since I had one, but the last one I had was irregular. Normally they last between a week and a half to two weeks. But that one was barely a week, and it was just really weird for me. I did have a few days last week where I guess you could say I "spotted" however it was such a light pink that you could barely tell. Plus it only happened twice.

Cravings - For a while I was having some major salt cravings, and while I still prefer to add extra salt to nearly everything I eat, i've been trying really hard to control it just because well, salt is bad. I've also been craving canned peaches like you WOULDN'T believe, however the thing is I really dont like canned peaches due to their slimey texture, still I bought a can and it was funny because as soon as I did, I didn't want them anymore. So they're still sitting in our cupboard. I've also noticed I haven't wanted fast food as much. I mean i'm still eating wendys if I have to, but it tastes sooo bland to me and makes me feel sick afterwards. I really just want fresh fruits and veggies. Oh!!! one of the strangest cravings i've had, is hamburger. If you knew me at all, you'd know that hamburger makes me sick to my stomache if I eat too much of it. Not sure why but it just always has, and by too much I mean, I rarely can ever finish one sandwhich. However, i've been wanting hamburger really bad and have been eating a lot of it.

Breast Tenderness - While this isn't bad right now, I have noted days where my boobs have been tender. I mean if I squeeze them a little they are sore, but if you just touch them nothing happens.

Frequent urniation - I've been noticing lately that this has gotten worse the past 2 weeks. I mean before I was peeing more than usual, but now I really am. I remember one night I would look at the clock every time I had to pee, and it was at least 1-2 times an hour. It really hasn't let up much since then. I feel like i'm constantly peeing. Even if I don't drink anything.

Okay so those are the symptoms i've been feeling for a couple months or so now. I have noticed within the past few days a few more things have been happening, whether or not they're symptoms I do not know. Still I feel I should write about them.

Butterfly-like feeling - It's this annoying, ache like feeling that is similar to butterflies? It's really hard to explain. I guess kind of like an anxious feeling but different? I'm not really sure how to word what it is. I know I don't like it though.

Bubbles - Not sure if I just have a bunch of built up gas inside of my stomache, or what, but every now and then I feel these bubble like things move around. Kind of like gas bubbles resituating themselves inside of your body? The strange thing is, im not experiencing a lot of gas at all. o.O

Hard Tummy - For the past month i've been feeling my tummy, just because i'm curious. well this past week I went to go feel it again, and I noticed it's harder....like I even had my mom and cousin feel it and they said it was harder. Also when I push on it, I get that butterfly like feeling I described earlier.

Weight Gain - My pants, that used to fit me PERFECTLY and even were a little LOOSE, are now so hard to get on I feel like i'm struggling with them every day I go to wear them. It would in the least confirm why I felt my tummy had gotten bigger. Even my boobs are bigger, they barely fit my bra's anymore. >.>

I guess until I can get into the doctor to get a blood test, i'll just keep noting things that are happening. Odds are if I am pregnant, i'll start gaining wait more rapidly soon. My cousin, who IS pregnant, and is about 19 weeks along, went from having a tiny belly to a much bigger and noticable belly within 1 1/2 weeks. So by the end of march, if I haven't gone to the doctor, I'm assuming I will have done the same? Either that or I'll start to feel the baby move.

Neh, this situation is soooo confusing. I wish a simple pee test would tell me. However if I am pregnant, I don't think i'm producing enough of the hormone for it to show up in my urine. >.< Which I found out it IS possible to go MONTHS of being pregnant and still get a negative test.

Well anyways, enough rambling. That is my update for today. If things change i'll update again tomrorrow. <3

So I decided that I needed a second LJ account. That way I can keep my personal and dolly lives separate. Sounds good, right? ^_^ I thought so. Anyways this post is basically being done so my journal isn't empty. My next post will be dedicated to my newest member of the family, Meeki. Whoots!
