My meds have been up and down, switch from this to that... back to this... higher doses of that. You all know the drill.

But, here's a fun fact: some anti-depressants may cause birth control to be less effective. So now I'm freaking out a little. This would be my second, and I feel now pretty much EXACTLY like I did right before I found out I was pregnant with my first. Lower abdominal flutters, random nausea, headaches, wanting to eat every salty thing I can lay my grubby little hands on. And craving tomato sauce... like right now just thinking about it made my mouth literally water. omg... that sounds amazing.

Anyway... moving on...

I stopped taking my birth control once I thought there might be a possibility. I tried to stop Effexor cold turkey but I kept having brain shocks and facial numbness. So the "cold turkey" idea lasted all of about a day and a half. I just didn't want anything to hurt the baby in potentia. It would be about another week before I can test with any kind of accuracy.

I guess I just needed to vent or something.
