I wonder what would happen if I told the parents who walk down my hall how I am really feeling...
"Welll, I your kid was really pi$$ing me off today - but maybe it's just hormones."
"Well, my boobs are sore, but other than that I'm fine."
"Well, have you ever had lightening crotch? Let me describe it to you..."
"My feet are swollen and my back hurts."
"IWell, I spent half the day doing the pee pee dance."
I know they are just trying to be kind and I should appreciate that and usually I say, "fine thanks, how are you?" but I'm feeling a little snarky this morning! hmmm
Re: how am I feeling? well actually... (cranky pants)
I would answer: "Oh, just a little pregnant this morning! (insert chuckle here) And you?"
far as I can tell - it's ligaments. I didn't get it with the first but have occasional pangs with this one. Basically it feels like there's a tight string between your uterus and your nethers that feels like someone just twanged it like a guitar string. Painful! But it fades fast - for me anyway - must be different for different people!
