I know how you feel girl! Doctors don't usually take you in for your first prenatal visit til your 3rd month!
You probably won't feel pregnant til you get the baby bump, feel the baby move, or see it on the ultra sound!
Get the book, what to expect when you are expecting! It has been a god send through this whole pregnancy for me!
The sensitivity to smell is a horrible, long lasting side effect. Your hormones are in such high gear your nose is like that of a blood hounds! I can still smell stuff my husband can't and I'm in my 6th month!
Get the book and it will help you understand a lot make sure you go get some prenatal vitamins. Do not take any aleve or motrin they can have the same effects as aspirin in the 1st and 3rd trimester. The safest thing to take if needed is tylenol.
If the usmc takes a while to approve go to a free womens clinic and they can get you started.
Good luck!

 Many pregnant women have aversions to certain foods, this doesn't mean anything is wrong with the baby. What you're experiencing is normal. Just take it easy until you're able to see a doctor, I'm sure you know what to do/what not to do i.e. don't consume alcohol, smoke, or do rigorous activity, make sure you eat a healthy and balanced diet but stay away from food with high levels of mercury. There are many websites that can give you guidance, just type in "pregnant" or something along those lines into google.
