2nd Trimester

Over emotional...I'm a mess! (vent)

Since we got our BFP I have really been thinking about our life. I worry so much more now, for myself, DH, and our baby. I worry about DH driving on the highway, what if something happened to him? The other day DH didnt answer his phone on his way home and I FREAKED OUT! I thank God every night for this baby and I count my blessings. I am glad to see another day on my ticker and that everything is going well. I don't know if its just me but I have been an emotional wreck these days and I'm hoping its just hormones and I won't stay like this. The stress and anxiety is to much and I can't help it. I have always been the worrying type (my mom is a worrier) but not in a nutty way by no means. I just feel like we have SO much to look forward to and live for and I worry its going to be snatched from me. Are any of you going through this as well?

  • It's the pregnancy hormones getting the best of you Wink

    Breathe....

  • Loading the player...
  • Tell your hormones to simmer ;)

    But nah, I hear you...we were planning on driving straight through to FL today & I made a reservation at a hotel instead...I just got this ugly feeling of something bad happening if we don't stop.  Nate thinks I'm bonkers, but oh well.

  • Yep!! I was a worrier before but pregnancy but it's definitely exacerbated all of my ridiculous & irrational fears. I think we're normal!

    Btw- I love when you change your pic each week- you look great & I love the white dress!

    Ditto. That, or you are turning into my grandmother.

    It'll be okay!

  • I'm not emotional as in worrying...Just emotional, short fuse.

    You will get past this. Maybe not until after you deliver, but you will.

    BTW, your dress is so cute!  Where did you get it?

  • I was way worse around 9-15 weeks. Like I couldn't shake irrational fears that just got worse the more I dwelled on them and then I couldn't shut my brain off. At the same time I became overly ambivalent about some things. Tres strange.

    I find it's helpful to just acknowledge the fear and the irrationality of it. Once it was out there, it seemed a lot less scary in my brain.?

  • It's the hormones sweetie. Don't worry, you aren't the only pg woman to get all emotional and freak out for nothing. It happens to all of us!!!!

    I missed it!!  oh good!  Did you have any trouble finding the hb??

    I gave mine back to my friend because she had another pal that wanted to borrow it...I'm fine now without checking, but I miss hearing the hb.

  • No trouble AT ALL! Found mine first then baby's.... it was higher than I thought (I suppose b/c I'm 5 ft tall & all legs)... I've listened 4x so far & we sent my MIL an email recording! :) Thanks again
