I Hate Numbers.

I still feel like crud. Cruddy crud crud CRUD. It's like, not really anything real, but just enough to make me feel worthless and lazy and to cause me to want to sit around a lot.

As I mentioned in a post last week, I began to think, at one point, that I may be pregnant. I took a test. It was negative.

Jose has began to tease me about it, as have some friends. I can't help it. It's natural. I think that it's normal for many women to assume that, when certain symptoms are there, you're preggo. So, on a whim, I did some research.


After having Teo, I got an IUD. Mirena, to be exact. According to Bayer, who makes Mirena, the chances of getting pregnant using it are 2 in 1,000 each year. Also, there are about 12 million women who currently use it. So, does that mean that 24,000 of us will end up pregnant per year while using the IUD? Holy crap, I hope I suck at math! The town I grew up in has a population just over 24,000. Ew.

Jose is sooooo getting surgery soon! Snip snip....

Sorry you've been feeling bad. I have to say, after my last baby, every month I feel preggo - even when I wasn't being exposed!!!! Lol! My pms symptoms shifted to more like pregnancy symptoms. It's horrible!

Hope you feel better quick. And hope Jose doesn't mind getting snipped. My man says it's not as bad as they make it out to be. But not fun either.
