I'm more emotional this trimester than I have been previously - most of the pregnancy I've felt very level & stable. This morning's episode stemmed around DH taking it upon himself to research what may help with my new stretch marks. The stretch marks don't really bother me and I haven't complained, so I clearly interpreted this as him having an issue with my physical appearance - rather than him just trying to be helpful (in a slightly misguided, but well intentioned way). Cue the dramatics. Fortunately I was upstairs and he was down, so I cried to myself and then calmed myself down without having to subject him to my irrational emotions.
I have lots of tearful moments and a few ridiculous breakdown moments. My most recent ridiculous moment was trying to fall asleep. I couldn't get comfortable. I was angry with DH for not offering to give me a massage (mind you I didn't ask for one, just felt he should have offered) and baby had a foot lodged in my ribs. It was nothing worth getting upset over, especially given how easy my pregnancy as a whole has been. But man was I upset.
I would have been very upset with my husband if he called me obnoxious...even if I was being obnoxious quite frankly.
Feeling like I don't know myself in the 3rd tri. I'm normally a very mild mannered, amiable person. Lately, I've been the biggest bitch....and I'm not sorry. I cannot put up with some of the stupid things my staff does at work the way I used to. I'm a completely different person.
I have completely lost my filter. I have just started blurting shit out, mean, nice, pissy...I don't care. I am pregnant and I speak the fucking truth.
A woman at work who is also pregnant said to me the other day "omg you look like you are full term already" so I replied "Ya you have barely gained any weight in your belly, just your face seems bigger". Take that bitch!
I cried because I couldn't think of the name of the Big Bang Theory. Not the highlight of my day! Pregnancy brain + a cold = a very distraught/irrational pregnant woman!
