Dear Hormones

Dear Hormones,

I know you need to express yourself, but please remember that as with all things, moderation is key. Timing is also a very important thing to take in to consideration. For example, last night you went overboard big time and it also happened to be midnight when you started, and you didn't stop until three in the morning. My husband does not appreciate your outbursts in the middle of the night when he's trying to sleep and needs to wake up for work early in the morning. I also don't think he liked it when you went from yelling to crying to cuddling to yelling again.

Could we arrange those outbursts for a time when he's awake and can talk you down, or even better, when you and I are alone (so as not to scare anyone else). Also - just another little bone to pick - why must you go insane  when we have guests over?  I don't mind you hanging out with me (I know you're a package deal with the baby), but whenever we have company over you seem to flare up and make me look like that crazy pregnant lady that we're all scared of.

Anyway, I know you're not going to leave, but maybe you could come out a little more often in smaller doses. Barely showing your face and then shooting off fireworks when you do come just seems a bit overboard to my husband and I. 

Best regards,

The lady you've taken over

    This sounds exactly like my experience with hormones a few nights ago. My poor DH! I agree- I wish mine would come out more frequently and in smaller doses too!!!!

     I was laying in bed thinking about stuff, and started just asking DH about stuff, he was asleep and didn't really respond much...so I felt like he didn't care about what I was talking about. (que hormone fairy) So I started feeling really bad/neglected/ignored and got all defensive and accusatory.

    I ended up realizing how crazy I was acting and apologized up and down, and I going to call him on his lunch break to apologize again. (He put up with this when I first found out I was pregnant, too. Hormones have been very controlled lately though, so last night came as a big shock).

    I can totally relate. Last week, I woke up at 3 to use the bathroom, and he had to be up at 6. I came back in bed bawling my eyes out which woke him up, because my cat was drinking water and I swore up and down that meant she had kidney failure and I didn't know what was going to happen to her. lol It only last for a half hour but I felt horrible. We also think the cat is fine. lol
