Something feels different.

Three days ago I told Toby that I was feeling a bit uncomfortable from being pre-menstrual but that I didn't feel pregnant. But now I'm not so sure. Just like last time I have felt like my period is on its way for a few days now. It's Day 29, one day late, and I've got that slightly-constipated-even-though-I'm-not-and-feeling-like-I-need-to-poo-
often-even-though-I-don't feeling... just like last time. Boobs don't feel as tender as I remember them being last time, however I also felt that the afore-mentioned feeling was the overriding one. I then went on to say, and I quote:

I'm expecting Prunella to arrive today. I wish she'd hurry up so I can get the "feeling not quite right" bit over with. I am so lucky that Prunella is generally pretty easy on me. Many other girls get very sick at this time of month and the worst I get is a slightly dodgy stomach and the occasional mild headache. Still, it's a bit irritating.

That is exactly how I'm feeling right now. Also, three days ago I didn't actually think it was possible for me to be pregnant, but now that I still haven't got my period I realise that the timing was actually right for me to get pregnant this month after all. I keep rushing off to the toilet to see whether Prunella has arrived... I suppose 29 days isn't too late.
