Third trimester and suddenly I am EVIL!!

Oh my goodness I woke up today in my third trimester and the worst mood!  Like not your average down in the grumps but pure, hot, sweaty, raging, poisonous stinkerhate.  I tried everything to snap myself out of it: soothing herbal tea, 3lbs of chocolate (the sugar just gave me more energy for scowling), thinking happy thoughts etc but nothing worked.  I have now spent a full 12 hours fantasizing about bare knuckle boxing nuns, stealing halloween candy from small children and everything else that I could think of that is terrible and bad.  I think I am JUST about ready to be out in public again.  Here's hoping this was a random hormonal blip and not a taste of how the next three months are going to be!  My poor husband tried to give me a hug to cheer me up and I honestly considered biting his ear off like Mike Tyson lol!!!

  • DUDE. Same exact day here. I'm 28 weeks today and I have been so pissed off and grumpy all day. It is not even a little bit funny. Wish I had some advice, but I'll just say I'm sympathizing and I'm right there with you. :(
  • Phew, I'm so glad it's not just me!  They should send us both to an island, far away from nice, normal people so that we can kick palm trees together and be bratty!

  • Me too! Well, I haven't been grumpy but just sad.
    Like, tears all day over a hug and everything. I cried about money, moving, fear of postpartum depression because I think I had it with my last but wasn't aware of it. Just so sad and moody all day.
  • Aw :( 
    The good (but also kind of bad) news is apparently it is normal to have crazy mood swings around this point.  We just have to keep our chins up for the final stretch.  We can do it!

    This is one of the things I really hate about pregnancy - the loss of control... it's like our emotions can just become an entity all their own and we have no control... I hate days like those.
    Hope you feel better soon!

    Maybe try watching your favorite comedy?
    Or youtube videos of kittens? (j/k)

  • I've discovered that pregnancy rage is a thing. And a thing not to be messed with!

  • I woke up the other day and just knew I was going to be easily pissed off all day. It's weird- I know it's happening but there's nothing I can do about it besides warn DH it's going to be "one of those days". He's been really good about it and at first would try to put me in a better mood. Now he just stays out of my way lol.

  • Oh no!!!
    That was me in my first tri. Freaking out at everyone including a massive freakout in front of DH's entire family.

    Hoping 3rd tri is just uncomfortable, and doesn't turn me into a monster.

    Good luck! Maybe it will pass.

  • Yes. Pissy, emotional, angry... Pretty much all bad moods at once. It really sucks. I hope this doesn't stick around after baby arrives ;( Excess weight makes it worse. I wish I could at least be pissy and feel attractive!
  • LOL. Your post cracked me up.

    I have been going through fits of rage like I did when I went through puberty as a teen. I swear I cannot control myself sometimes with how mad I am. I almost just want to throw myself in the floor like a toddler. I am looking forward to getting my hormones back in check once LO is around 3 months old...

  • ugh, yes totally. I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today for sure. I am exploding angry about anything messy in my house and the lamest shit. My poor husband...

  • Oh, I feel so much better knowing I'm not the only one. I can hear the words coming out and am shocked at how bitchy I sound, but I can't stop. All filters have disappeared. I too have been agonizing over being über prego during the hottest months. Maybe I just need to wear an apology sign around my neck as I stomp around for the next few months...

    But we can do this! And it will be worth it to kiss those sweet baby cheeks.
  • I would never normally do this so I'm blaming it on the pregnancy hormones. We were walking to the checkout with a twin mattress for our DD so baby can have the crib mattress. These people in front of me are talking then trying to decide what lane to stand in. So I legitly just stepped right in front of them and cut in line and I don't even care.
