eating disorder or pregnant?

you decide.

over the last week, i've had nearly insatiable hunger. i'll sit down and eat a full meal and then not even an hour later, feel hungry again. yesterday, i tried snacking A L L D A Y long. didn't seem to matter. i was still hungry most of the day. so far today i've had:

- one large breakfast taco
- 24 oz water
- bucket of raw almonds
- chocolate bunnies (they're on sale right now at Whole Foods!)
- more almonds
- a roast beef sandwich from Central Market with fries
- 24 more oz water
- more almonds
- plate of homemade chicken tetrazzini (recipe here)
- more water
- two delicious chalupas from Santa Rita with rice and beans

and guess what?

i'm hungry again. one can't say i'm not getting enough protein. i feel like that's all i eat! so, either i have a raging eating disorder or this is an early sign of pregnancy. this is my first, most significant sign.

the other sign, interesting and maybe a little less *outstanding* than the eating disorder, is what i call:

"nipples that talk back"

noticing some very interesting breast and mostly just the nipples sensations. Lucy says it's the little people inside my nipples making holes for the milk to come out. now, i can hear a collective roaring of laughter all across blogland. though some of my readers might be just as likely to cower under their desk with embarrassment. it's all good. back to the little people in my nipples..... when Lucy was little, she used to imagine that what made her poop come out of her body was a collection of little men in her lower bowels pushing the poop out. isn't that so darling and yet, so bizarre? so, the little people are busy working on my nipples today and i'm hungry again.

that is all.

when will we know for sure that we're pregnant? oct 3rd will be 18 high temps in a row. and if you've ever ttc, you know that it takes 18 days of high temps to know you're pregnant. unless you just pee on a stick (take a pregnancy test).

hoping....
