Hello mood swings!!!

Ok, so this is mostly just me venting, but also wanting to get perspective from other moms. I am 15+3 into my first pregnancy. I would say the mood swings and hormones have definitely kicked in. I have thought I've been doing a good job of maintaining control and not blowing up at people or crying whenever I feel like it, but when I said something about being more hormonal than usual to my co-worker, her response was "I've noticed." To which, I am now still angry about (hence the hormones and need to vent late at night!). I really have been trying to contain or divert my anger and sadness as much as possible and not take things personally. It's just really hard!!! And I'm normally a pretty in control person, so it's making me even more mad that I can't control these darn hormones!!! :((

Anyone else feeling this way? Or am I just blaming pregnancy for everything, and this is just the "real me" coming out?

    You're not alone girl! My fuse is shhhhooorrrt and I don't consider myself a moody person to begin with. I think my dogs even look at me sometimes and think "holy bat crap crazy lady, what's her problem?" Hang in there girl! ~X(

  • I'm 13 weeks and this last week I have been super moody . I've apologised to work colleagues and my husband in advance but I can't control it haha . Trying to control the physco is hard work haha .
  • You are most definitely not alone! I applaud you for being so cool, calm, and collected ..... on the outside. ;) Last night my SO said something to annoy me so I told him to sleep on the couch. So don't feel bad for being super moody ... atleast you're trying your hardest to be civil during the trying times of pregnancy hormones. :)
  • Thanks for the encouraging words, ladies! It's nice to know I'm not alone in this. Or crazy lol :)
