I ran 1.5 mile warm up with the girls and then ran about 1.5 during the races. Now it is time for a rant that I've been holding back for a couple weeks: I have been feeling like I was getting my period for the past two weeks--the stomach cramping, the tiredness, the works. But it hasn't come yet. That could indicate a pregnancy, but I've taken a couple tests and they are negative. I haven't taken one in about a week, but I'm now almost 2 weeks late. And I'm going to be really depressed if I'm not pregnant and now I'm really worried, like there's something else wrong with me or something. And so yesterday I started spotting, but no period yet. I spotted during both previous pregnancies and the spotting didn't stop until I stopped running. So I don't know if I'm pregnant or not and I'm afraid to take another negative test and if I'm not pregnant what's the deal with more than two weeks of PMS? And if I am pregnant I think I might not be running. So I'm taking today off and if I get my period, I'll run tomorrow. If I don't I'll take another test. I don't know how people go through this if they are trying to get pregnant and it takes months. I feel emotionally drained.
