28-8-2009 - Personal blog #1

My mood while writing this blog: ok

Okay, time for me to begin a new blog. It's been a while and I'm not particularly writing this for other people to read (unless it helps you!) but rather in order to keep track of things month to month. This month has been odd for me. I was supposed to begin period today, but instead have had dull, period-like cramping that slightly burns. No bleeding so far. It might not seem that big of a deal, but the past 9-10 months I've begun my period by spotting/cramping for the two days prior to the Big Day.

Ok, so no period. Yet.

I woke up with a lump in my throat. Not really nauseated, but just an annoyingly large lump in my throat.

A noticeable lack of implantation bleeding, so I don't suspect pregnancy. I had IB with both previous pregnancies...but I hear that doesn't mean a thing. :)

Last night I had watermelon and had heartburn at bedtime from that.

A few nights ago, my feet were killing me--throbbing so bad that it felt like I was 9 months pregnant. Doesn't make sense, but I'm just putting this stuff in here. Might have nothing to do with anything, since I don't even think I'm pregnant this month either. lol!

I've been excessively tired, but have gotten used to it since I have two small children to take care of. A week ago I was so exhausted that I didn't think I could move and thought for sure that I had developed diabetes type 2....still not sure about that either. :-/

As I type, I notice more heartburn.

CM is actually somewhat dry. Occasionally after I go to the bathroom I get some cm (creamy in color) but not a lot. I feel wetter than I actually am.

Three days ago I started having irritation while pooping. (I had hemorrhoids with both my last 2 pregnancies.) I still have the irritation (feels like needles when I go...ouch!) and am going to start using suppositories tonight.

My back hurts, but I think it's just because I've been sitting here for too long. lol!

Again, I don't think I'm pregnant, just keeping track of things and hopefully not turning myself into a hypochondriac! LOL :-D
