(I apologize if this is the wrong community for this type of question, I just really like it here :) so delete if inappropriate)
Ok, first a little explanation. I don't know if anyone remembers, but I posted a couple of weeks ago because I thought I might be pregnant, but wasn't sure. I haven't tested yet because I figured it was all in my head and I hadn't missed my period yet. Well, I've been getting increasingly tired, and I had something a little strange happen to me at work this morning. I was sitting at my desk and started feeling really nauseous, so I ate an apple and I felt a little better. About 20 minutes later I had to pee again, so I went into the bathroom and there was another woman in there and I could smell her perfume. Her perfume didn't smell bad, but it smelled really strong to me and I almost got sick right then and there. I also noticed early this morning outside of my apartment that I could smell the strong scent of two different mens colognes, but there was no one outside. I feel like some of my symptoms are swaying more towards pregnancy now than a couple of weeks ago, when it was more so that I just felt weird. I should start my period within the next 4-5 days, so I plan on testing after I get my period or if I skip it (my mom bled when she was pregnant with me so I don't want to take any chances).
Here is my question for all of the mommies in the community: What symptoms did you first notice that made you think you were pregnant? Were there any odd symptoms you had that you thought were strange at the time? I've read symptoms online so I am very familiar with the common symptoms, but I would love to hear your stories of how you felt and what that first odd symptom was that made you think that you must be pregnant.
Thank you!
