2nd Trimester

Does anyone else have a really short fuse these days?

This week, I have been so annoyed and irritated by people!  Now, these people ARE annoying, even on a good day, but it usually doesn't get to me the way it is this week.  I have had to hole up in my office and not talk to anyone today because I am really afraid I'm going to start telling off all of these people who have just really irritated me this week!

 I'm hoping this is pregnancy driven and not a sign that my job really does suck.

Anyone else wanting to tell people off more than usual these days?

  • Yes, its seem to calm down now but I was really short tempered all through first trimester and just a bit now as i enter each stage of my pregnancy.

  • My DH just brought this up to my last night.  While I'm not an overly hormonal person -- he did mention that I have a short fuse lately.

    Definitely pregnancy related!

  • YES, super annoyed with my 6 year old lately!
  • Oh, this is me big time!  Almost everyone who says something to me, I am immediately irritated! and I have no idea why...I mean, some conversations are pointless, I just seem to have no patience with anyone anymore....definitely hoping that this goes away, sooner than later!
  • Short fuse, haha... a couple weeks ago I was pealing an orange and was about to eat it when I realized that it just wasn't edible. It was pretty dry instead of juicy and just nasty. I burst into tears and stormed out of the room. Poor DH was like Tongue Tied

    I still don't know why I got so upset over it. 

  • Yes!  Today for some reason I am annoyed with my brother!  He posted a weird picture on FB & I told him he looks like he is jacking off! so now he is embarrassed and mad at me. lol
  • Yep. I have absolutely 0 patience lately.

  • You really MUST have a short fuse if you've chosen this topic for your first post!

    Seriously, though, yeah. I had a short fuse before getting PG. Now there is no fuse. I'm just nuclear.

  • I have had a super short fuse for the past 2 days. MY co-worker commented on it, she said that I usually just take everything as it comes to me, but the past 2 days I have been getting really pissed, especially at my boss. I have been extremely snarky for the past like week. Doesnt help that my boss is a dumba$$. My coworker is proud of me.... she says I am too quiet.. she likes this side of me.. LOL!
  • I noticed last night that I had something negative to say about every commercial that came on the tv. Talk about pointless!
  • I have the shortest fuse ever.

  • I have had the worst temper the last couple days.  My MIL seems to be an easy target for me this week.  I know she is trying to be helpful but she has been irritating the sh*t out of me.  I told my husband last night that I have not returned her calls in two weeks, ignored 3 e-mails from her and deleted a post she made of FB.  Although I know she deserves some of this treatment, she doesn't deserve it all - I know I am just being biitchy.

  • I had a short temper with my 17 yr old today....
  • I've been like this for the past two weeks. It's definately pregnancy related for me. My husband brought home a peace treaty last night.
  • YES. and working with customers all day does not help. I am sooooooo annoyed by the end of the day. I am definitely looking forward to maternity leave.

  • I find that I have a short fuse lately but I have been pretty good at keeping my craziness on the inside.  The only time the crazy comes out is if I am really tired and usually it is directed at poor DH.
  • hell yes. and i feel so horrible because i've been extremely impatient with my 3 year old this past 1-2 weeks. i'm trying really hard to keep it together, but it's really hard (and he's totally pushing my buttons too.)
  • I normally have a short fuse anyway..lately it's 1000x worse.  I have one really high maintenance friend that I just can't stand lately!!! I've been able to keep my mouth shut to most people who make me mad but my bf hears it!!!
  • I have gotten into two dumb internet fights (not on the bump!) in the last couple weeks. My husband was like, flame wars-- is that a symptom? Embarrassed

    That would be me and I blame it all on pregnancy.  Big Smile

    I feel really bad for some people some days and I try telling myself that no matter what I am going to be nice, but I just can't help it sometimes. And it doesn't help that my job really does suck, so that just adds to my short temper some days.

  • In the last few months I have gotten worse... lately I hate everyone and everything!! It is terrible! DH is pretty entertained, but I am really looking forward to the madness ending (hopefully)!

  • YES! And it's driving me nuts (along with my family). I have a 4-year old son, a 13-year old stepson and a husband who might as well be 4 or 13.  The thing is, they all side with each other that I am being "testy."

     My husband's intentions were good the other night I'm sure, when he told the boys that my hormones are a little "off" because I'm pregnant, so they needed to be a little more understand and cautious about what they say to me.  I, of course, too, that negatively.

    I always said these emotions are like PMS, but these seem to be coming more naturally, like I just really can't stand anyone!

    I hope it goes away soon. I don't like being mean - usually - but right now it just feels so right!

    Take it easy, ladies. It's all for the best!
