Emotional Rollercoaster

Up until this point I have not really been an emotional wreck, but this morning I broke down when I got to work because I had this intense feeling of being all alone in this pregnancy (even though I know I am not). 

Has this happened to anyone else?  My fiance has been feeling like I don't treat him like I care enough, but when I told him what happened when I got to work he totally understood why.

    I rode the rollercoaster as well! After that halfway point, I thought I would be pregnant forever and was counting the days wondering how I was going to make it.

    Maybe take some time for yourself weekly to see if that helps. Maybe get a prenatal massage or a facial or something fun for YOU. Go shopping (non baby) or to dinner with your girlfriends or fiance. Get a magazine, read a fun book, watch a funny movie or just relax in the bath. The whole experience does screw with your head thanks to the fabulous hormones, at least it did for me. You will make it! :)?

    this happened to me as well.  my husband continued to work out and look great and i looked like a blob of goo.  he drank beer, i drank water and fruit juice.  he slept like a baby and i couldn't sleep.  it annoyed me to no end!  i used to get really bothered, but realized that we can go through this together.  so i made him walk with me.  when i couldn't sleep, i sometimes woke him up and made him experience the insomnia as well.  i asked him to give up drinking, but he wouldn't...especially not during football season. 

    i would cry watching awards shows and all types of things.  my emotions were all over the place.

    after the birth of baby #2 he said that he can't take me being pregnant ever again b/c basically i'm a b*tch.  it was all said tongue in cheek, but there was a degree of honesty.  i can understand.

    My FI tells me that I am a different person during the day and at night... sometimes I agree with him, b/c I get in these moods.  Other times its his fault because he likes to do stuff to aggravate me, thus making me snap on him.  I can't be cheery 24/7.
