Warning Signs

So as I explained in my last post, I was completely shocked that I was pregnant and thought that I had not experienced any pregnancy signs. I had been thinking about it over the weekend and looking back, I realize that maybe there were some signs that I just overlooked:

1. Last Wednesday, I was so tired I went and took a nap in my car during my lunch break. And I cant stop yawning.


2. I bought some Zucchini bread at work last week and before I could finish it, the smell was really getting to me. I stopped eating it for a while and pushed it away. As I was working I could still smell it, it was making me sick. So I put it clear on the other side of the desk. The smell still bothered me! I finally threw it away without eating it. I threw it away in the bathroom trash can so I wouldn’t have to smell it anymore! I though it was just bad zucchini bread.


3. Thursday night (before I took the test) I made a pot of Taco Soup. Scott had started a bowl while I was feeding Brendan. By the time I got to the soup it smelled and tasted bad to me, I thought the meat had gone bad. So I threw out the entire pot and took Scott’s bowl away saying the soup was bad. We ate a frozen dinner instead.


4. I had been waking up at 5:00 on the dot to pee in the morning. I just thought I was drinking too much liquid the night before, although I haddn’t been drinking more than usual.

They were just little signs like more frequent urination, fatigue, and enhanced sense of smell. But all rather large signs of pregnancy. I guess if you aren’t looking for them…
