Warning, warning, warning: Question that is beyond TMI, but I need to know.

This has been happening to me for years, and I need to know if this is happens to anyone else.

I always know when I'm going to get my period...though I am not on birth control and I have an irregular cycle.

How you ask? Every morning when I wake up, I have to pee really badly. However, on the morning of the day when I am going to get my period, I do not have to pee at all. Every other day of the month I have to though.

It does not matter if it doesn't come until 11PM that night. If I'm going to get my period at some point that day, I don't have to pee in the mornings.

I know this is so weird. Does this happen to anyone else or am I a freak of nature???

It doesn't happen to me, but my guess is that since usually Aunt Flo comes with lovely side effects like water weight and bloating, that maybe your body is holding in the water in other ways?

Hey - at least you know that it's on it's merry way and can prepare for it!

Hmmm that's a really good theory. Yes, it's definitely a helpful - though very weird -sign!

doesn't happen to me ... but i really wish it did

That doesn't happen to me, but I always knew I was getting my period when I would find myself getting really upset about something completely ridiculous. I'd catch myself holding back tears, then think to myself 'uhhh...and why am I upset over this?' . We all have our own period quirks we recognize!

I have the worlds worst PMS the day before my period, (the only day I have PMS) so I know when the t.v. makes me cry, or I am being selfish for no reason that tomorrow will be the day.

NOPE not weird at all. I know im getting my period when the morning of that day I wake up to a bloody taste in my mouth. It never fails. My saliva tastes like iron or I smell it in my saliva. Its weird , I know, but its 100% true.

I wish I had that feeling. Its a little way to help you prep

Me, too. I cry over EVERYTHING the 2 or 3 days before I get my period. Even DH knows the warning signs.
