H and I have been married for almost 9 months, and I have been convinced that I was pregnant probably 9 times. Seriously, every month, I tell H, "I feel like I'm pregnant." And yet every time, he knows better. Because obviously I'm not pregnant.
If my parents are reading this right now, they'll probably get mad at me for sharing too much information. [STOP READING MOM AND DAD.] But that's okay, because this is necessary for you to understand where I'm coming from. I have had a lot of friends who gained excessive amounts of weight or had crazy mood swings on the pill, and their horror stories scared me into taking a different route. I got an IUD, and for the first few months I had a lot of problems. Not weight gain or mood swings, but mostly a lot of pain, and so I hated it. I haven't had any pain from it in awhile, though, and now I'm kind of liking it.
So every month I just know that I'm pregnant, and then every month I'm just not. [Not that we're trying. Obviously. I have an IUD.]
Reasons I'm convinced I'm pregnant:
-Every month I'm convinced that I'm gaining weight.
-Every month I'm convinced that the ladies are growing. And they get really tender. [This month I SWEAR THEY ARE.]
-Sometimes I'm convinced I have this super human sense of smell.
-I'm so emotional. All the time. When I'm happy I cry; when I'm sad I cry. [This has been going on as long as I can remember though. I'm super sensitive. Haha]
-I haven't had a visit from Mother Nature in 3 months. [That's very common with Mirena, though.]
-I get an upset stomach/nauseous after most meals. [That's been going on for a long time though, but I still like to blame it on my fake pregnancies.]
Reasons I know I'm not pregnant:
-I have an IUD. [And while it is possible to get pregnant with an IUD in, it's very dangerous and I'm sure I would be in a whole lot of pain.]
So yeah. That's a little peek into what's been going on in the Farnsworth household. Every time I tell H that I'm pregnant, he just laughs at me. When I finally do get pregnant, he's definitely not going to believe me, haha!
Sorry if this post was TMI for you, but I'm also not that sorry. Have any of you had experiences like this, or am I just crazy??
