Mood Swing Help?

Hey guys,

Sorry I haven't been as active on here for a while. It's been really crazy trying to get this newly pregnant thing on lock. I'm so glad to see that most of you are doing great and having a blast.
I've started to get really bad mood swings. The crying and hysterically laughing don't bug me (much) but the irritability is incredibly annoying. I hate being mad or irritable. I'm never like that and I hate that others have to deal with it too. I can hide from most people but my poor DH gets the brunt of it. Is there any tips from you guys that can help me out? Or even better, insight into how long I should expect this to last?

    Expect it 9 months + about 6 months pp. No joke.

    I would just tell your DH to brace himself and that you are going to be a little more emotional than he's probably used to. I personally just flat out told MH that I have very little control over my body and emotions right now. Not that my feelings don't matter, but I had to flat out tell him he has to be extra understanding. It's hard. One minute you will feel great, the next you will want to rip someone's head clean off.

    ETA: at least you are making an effort to be aware of it. That will help in taking a step back and taking a breather. But yeah I go from 0-60 in 2 seconds.

    It's so terrible!!! I feel so bad. And after about three hours of being irritable I cry hysterically haha I've tried to explain to DH but it's so hard for him to understand. Poor thing won't know what him if this really lasts as long as you say @nesenotes‌ haha

    It really will. And pp is about 5x worse. I just try to be extra nice when I'm in a good mood to hopefully help counter a some of the crazy.
