Was I abused?

I have a question, I am a male, i will admit that i dont want to have to think about this, but I am finnally trying to cope with my divorce and i need to know if what i went through counts as abuse:

        Less then a year into the realationship, we had a "Baby Scare" which really wasnt much of a scare for me, but it was for her. We traveled 20 mins away to find a clinic who could test her that same day, and when we had trouble locating said clinic, she hit me, several times, hard enough to leave bruises all over my arms.

        Then there were other times when she would get extremely emotional and angry with me (usually over minor things) and she would hit me as hard as she could in the arms.  She would always apologize afterwards, but there was always severe emotional pain caused by these hits.

   So i guess im wondering, 2 years after she left me, was i Physically abused?
