Do you think you’re pregnant? If so, we’ve put together a little list of physical changes that may be happening to your body at this very moment. Have you read So You Think your Pregnant Part I? That’s where we talked about some of these changes like feeling more drugged than Lindsay Lohan the night before rehab, dizzy, nauseous, more smelling power than a cheetah on the hunt and let’s not forget that sudden urge to pee… every minute of the day.
If you’re past that then here are some more physical changes you should be aware of:
- Feeling Bat Shit Crazy?
Whether a Hallmark commercial just made you bawl your eyes out or you want to throw something at your significant other because you think he’s looking at you funny – pregnancy makes you bat shit crazy. I mean I’ll go on the record for this – pregnancy will take whatever your pms symptoms are and multiply them by 1000%. So head to the doctor (or the hills) to find out if you truly are – because hey, your significant other and friends are important and you might need them over the next 9 months.
- Cramping?
Are you getting phantom menstrual cramps? Feel like your period is around the corner yet nothing seems to happen? Then yes you may be pregnant. Keep in mind though – pregnancy is not an indication that you won’t have bleeding or any other weird secretions down there. If you are pregnant, Keep an eye out and make sure your blood is more brownish without clots in it – if its bright red with lots of clots there may be a problem.
- No Period?
Well if you’re anything like me, your period might not come at exactly 28 days.. and you’re like me missing one isn’t exactly the worst thing in the world. This is why some women can miss a couple and not even realize they may in fact be pregnant. Keep a calendar with your cycle – if you think its been awhile you can always wait a full 30 days before you start to panic. However, if you don’t want to go through a month of anxiety you should probably just head to your local pharmacy or doctor to get a pregnancy test.
- “Fun Bags” Not So Fun Anymore?
If you’ve ever dreamed up going up a bra size almost over night – pregnancy might be EXACTLY what you’re looking for! Over-selling? Yeah I thought so. Yes, pregnancy does make the fun bags explode somewhat – but beyond that you are going to be sore and swollen. Don’t worry though – this is temporary. On a side note: Don’t forget to flaunt your new boobs to your significant other – you mind as well enjoy the time you have together.
- You think you Might be Pregnant?
Let’s be honest – women have that secret sense that they may be pregnant – whether you felt the condom pop, or you missed a couple of birth controls, or you just feel like something is different in a maternal way – you probably already know your pregnant. So why not validate this by going to your doctor or buying a home pregnancy test? It will ease the anxiety and allow you to have some control over the situation.
