1st Trimester

Is anyone else feeling really intolerant of other people?

I feel like this pregnancy is making me into a raging b*tch!  I find that I lose my temper really easily, and I have no patience for the annoying things that I used to be able to laugh off.  I am hating my job and would do anything to leave, but that is absolutely not an option - and usually I love my job!  I just feel like I'm a mess emotionally.  I guess that makes sense, given the levels of hormones swarming through my body, but I don't remember feeling this way the first time around...

  • By the end of the day yesterday I was so drained and tired from work I was definately cranky!

  • Hopefully it will pass. Those hormones can really get you! 

    Yesterday I was at the check out line and this lady invaded my personal space so much that she was touching me! WTF? There was plenty of room. So I said, "excuse me" rather rudely. Normally I would just take a step forward. The funny part was, the lady looked at me like I was the in the wrong!!! LOL! 

  • YES!!  I just came on here to vent and your post was the first one I read!  I look at it like this, it's not my hormones that makes me b*tchy, it's peoples ignorance.  They like to blame it on me being pregnant, but that doesn't change the fact that some people are just stupid/rude/selfish.  I was just talking about how I would love to be a SAHM after giving birth, or at least only work part-time, but that is not an option for us either.  Oh well, what can you do!  At least we have the bump for support!

    Yes - my already low patience has definitely decreased since getting pg.  I don't think other people have noticed, but I have noticed myself getting a little more angry at stuff that usually wouldn't bother me so much.  It's kind of weird, this very subtle loss of control over my feelings.
  • I'm just abou ape-s*%! crazy right now. I know i was in a HORRIBLE mood yesterday, and the DH did not help one bit. We're trying to plan two trips right now, and he's sending me messages all day long... Where do you wanna stay??? How about here?? What about here??? What if we did this instead??? I think I told him a few times to just freakin' pick a hotel, pick where we want to go in September... JUST PICK!!! I'm in no mood to make decisions when I feel like barfing all day long.

    But everything seems a bit better today. He just needs to figure out the difference between the good and bad days! Big Smile

  • You mean like the woman I almost ran down this morning because she refused to turn on a green light because it wasn't a green arrow? Or the b*tch in Kohl's the other day who cut in front of me in line (I had been waiting 4 minutes or so already) and said, "oh she has my sale suspended..." That's nice, but why wouldn't you wait back in line? You think just because you grabbed another Father's Day card that you get your spot back? AND the girl had to re-ring everything anyway. So basically, instead of letting me get my 4 things, I had to wait another 15 minutes for you, lady! THANKS!

    Yeah, I'm a little touchy these days...

  • Yep and the little things that  I used to not notice piss me off. Like people touching my chair. don't know why but that makes my horns come out!

  • Absolutely. I have zero patience right now (not that I had much to begin with).

  • Try dealing with those hormones AND living with your In-Laws! I swear it makes it twice as bad. Every little thing that they do is driving me nuts!  I get so annoyed with my MIL because she totally babies my dog and keeps calling her "My little girl", I just want to yell at her that it's MY damn dog and not to get too attached because she's coming with us when we move in 44 days!  Don't even get me started on my FIL's dumb jokes that really make no sense to me at all.... and he has to yell at the TV everytime a sports team does something wrong or scores.  I am so over it! 

    And there is this one woman at work who is the loudest person ever on the phone... I just want to walk over to her cube and tell her to shut it!

     Ahhh... I feel better now.... Thanks! Indifferent

  • OMG, do I ever feel your pain.  The smallest things are making me blow up, luckily I'm able to keep it contained while I'm at work but let me tell you, my DH gets the low down as soon as I get in the car.  The one person in particular is just rubbing me the wrong way, it's so bad!!
