I feel..

I feel like a bloated water buffalo from all the stimming. At night especially, I just grab my lower abdomen and waddle around. It's like menstrual cramps x10 with bloating. Ugh. Just figured I'd share!

OMG; SO NAUSEOUS; DH is totally confused. One minute I'm fine, the next I'm hot and nauseous and walking around in the snow with my jacket open in the driveway. Ugh.
