1st Trimester
Miserable
Is anyone else just kinda miserable right now?? This is my 1st pregnancy & is really taking its toll. More emotionally then anything else at the moment. I stay mad & irritated & if I start crying...it's all over bc it does NOT stop!!! Will this part get any better or am I in this "emotional state" for the remaining 7 months???

Re: Miserable
Hi! I just hopped over to this board today (I'm usually on the month board), but I want to tell you that you are not alone AT.ALL.! This is what I just posted on the Jan 2013 board:
I am so exhausted I can hardly stand it. I was a little tired on Monday, a little more on Tuesday, but then the full blown exhaustion set in yesterday afternoon and has not let up! I totally planned on sleeping in this morning, but then a transformer blew right outside my bedroom window so I was wide awake an hour or so before my alarm was supposed to go off...without power. Grrrrr. I have woken up with a slight headache 3 days in a row, and am scared to take anything for them. My poor DH got the waterworks last night b/c I told him I was sorry I was being so worthless and he jokingly said, "Don't worry, I knew you would milk it, baby". I immediately BURST into tears b/c it hurt my feelings so bad, and he INSISTED that he was totally kidding. That's the 2nd time I've cried hysterically. I'm hoping he's learning and will quickly realize he needs to watch what he says to me, joking or not! I need to go to the gym, and work, and the grocery store, shopping for on sale winter maternity clothes, etc. etc. but all I want to do is lay on the couch and watch Forensic Files. Please tell me this lets up eventually?!? PS. Can you tell this is my 1st?!?
*End rant*
So, I'm right there with you!

I'm with you here. Actually that's why i'm online right now when I'm supposed to be working...I needed as distraction. I just started bawling when my boss was talking to me because I took something he said wrong and I couldn't quit crying and he just kept telling me what great work i'm doing.
And then everybody who walks by my desk asks what's wrong and if i'm okay and really, I don't want to talk about it. I just want to have a baby and not have ridiculous hormones.
It's my first too.... so I don't really know what to expect or if it gets any better!
Definitely in the same boat. Yesterday I was just in such a bad mood that I yelled at my son. I couldn't shake it and I just didn't care! That's totally not like me. I hate feeling like this. Not so emotional and sad. I'm just angry. I've really been praying for some strength to keep my mood in check.
With my last pregnancy this would happen every now and then, I supposed when I was having a hormone surge or something. But, it didn't last the whole time. I was able to get control of myself and start to see the positives.
