I hope this is PMS

For those on mobile: I hope this is PMS.

Yesterday and today I've been really irritable and sometimes weepy. I almost feel like I did shortly after birth emotionally, trying to adjust and functioning in no sleep, even though we sleep between 4 and 6 hours at night.

I have no patience for what seems like my dogs' constant whining. I'm frustrated with Elsie's new eating phase where she constantly unlatches all the time for no apparent reason and also her reluctance to nap anywhere but in my arms. I get weepy thinking that I'm not doing enough for her, helping her to develop. I feel overwhelmed by all of the demands on my time: work and family. I feel fat. Even dreamed about it last night!

I had a headache this morning. I'm just begging my period to show up and get this over with. No real reason for this post except that I feel like you guys can relate better than anyone else I could talk to. Thanks.

  • You basically explained my life to a T.... haha, it's not funny but it's funny because it comes in swoops... sometimes I feel great, I am doing enough, I've lost my baby weight, my dog has been good with the transition of a new baby, I am loving life..

  • I'll join this club, lol. I've been super irritable the last couple of days, not to mention exhausted and I just started my period today as well. I was really hoping to be one of those women who doesn't get her period until at least 9 months post-partum..
