Extremely hormonal and emotional

missluck713

This whole pregnancy I've been hormonal but especially in the last couple weeks (I'm 36 weeks today) I can't control it....I just cry and cry over everything I am mean and angry and not sleeping doesn't help....I can't stand myself and my poor bf is so upset with me bc I'm constantly upset about something ....I wasn't like this my other 2 pregnancies (both boys this time a girl and definitely my last)! I am so sore and uncomfortable and crampy and crabby lol....anyone else ever been like this is it normal???

I have been a lot more emotional this pregnancy. This one has been the hardest on me period! I have three boys, this ones also a girl. I am hoping I go back to normal after she's out!

I am pretty emotional this pregnancy. It definitely has gotten worse (started crying when my husband joked with his friends about my cat dying... My cat is perfectly alive and healthy but the joke made me cry.)

If you feel angry and stressed, try giving yourself "time outs" before acting out. If you get in a lot of arguments with your BF, then when you feel the anger surging, go take a warm bath or shower or something to get yourself away for a while.

I find it harder to let go of my anger when I am pregnant, so stepping away really helps. Then I have time to remind myself that this isn't the end of the world and it most likely is just my hormones. Saves me from being mean to my DH.

Thanks Ladies! Good to know it's not just me

I was not emotional at all with my boys, and this one I am having a girl as well. I am BEYOND emotional! My husband just called to tell me he was off of work early because of the rain, so he was going to pick up hot chocolate and tonight he was going to give me a foot rub- obviously I started to cry uncontrollably!

I also get to the point where if I laugh at something or think it's funny, I start sobbing. This little lady might be making me a little crazy!

Having my second girl. Before my first daughter I wasn't a cryer or anything. Got pregnant and all of the sudden I cried over everything and was so emotional. I was like, holy estrogen this is a girl lol. The crying thing never went away but I did become reasonable again lol. Pregnant with baby girl number 2 and I'm all unreasonable again. I've gotten used to the crying, though lol

I feel the exact same way and I'm at 35 weeks, the only difference is this is my first boy and last baby, I have two girls.

My poor DH thinks I'm angry with him all the time, which sometimes I am but I try not to let him know, because I know I have been very moody with this pregnancy and I have taken a lot of it out on him. But I also have hurt significantly more than I did with my girls. I have a lot of pressure on my pelvic bone and have for a couple months now and I don't sleep well. In addition to, I plan to quit work for several months once baby is born and that stresses me out financially, and my supervisor has made my life hell, nitpicking every aspect of my day! DH wants me to quit work now because of the stress but we have two daughters that will be looking for Santa to bring them presents and I know without my income, we wouldn't be able to afford it. I really hate being in such a bad mood all of the time, I just want to enjoy this pregnancy and savor it!

Not having a girl, but I can relate to the hormonal part.

Last night we decided on Taco Bell for dinner. I ordered an xxl stuffed burrito with steak. Got home, no burrito. Went back. Got home. It was a ground beef burrito and it had sour cream. I ugly cried for about 10 minutes.

And then today I was doing laundry and I bent down to grab something that dropped out of the washer, and the door hit my head, and I went straight into hulk mode. I threw the rest of the clothes on the ground. My phone rang in that minute and instead of answering I hucked that at the wall.

Like what. I'm a crazy person all of a sudden.
