Mood swings are very common in the 1st Tri. It will probably settle in a few weeks but if you are really concerned it is probably worth a call to your doctor.
It's so awful isn't it?! Last night while we were watching tv, every time a woman was on screen I asked my BF if he thought they were hot. When he finally told me to stop asking I burst into tears and said I knew that means yes, then kept apologizing for being bad in bed, lol. Hormones, ugh!
I am the same way and i am only 5 weeks pregnant. Like yesterday i yelled at my bf because he kissed me on my cheek and not on my lips- lol what is that about?
I cry once a day at least sometimes worse than others and most times for no reason I can even identify! It's gotta be normal. It started for me around 5 1/2 weeks and has only gotten worse (sorry) I am 8 weeks today!
P.S two days ago I cried cause I was so hungry and I didn't like the salad I ordered...
Im completely opposite in the emotions department... Im horribly bitchy! The littlest things set me off. What makes worse is i hear myself getting mean and i try to control it but its too late. Im constantly apologizing to DH.
The emotional roller coaster continues! Yesterday I sobbed because my twin 15 mo nephews got their first haircuts. I'm mostly filled with love and joy, moved by the happiness of others - to an annoying degree. The silliest thing I've cried about so far was The Late Show with Stephen Colbert - the crowd was cheering "Ste-phen Ste-phen" and I got all choked up because they were all so happy to be there. DH just laughed.
I am either sobbing uncontrollably or super bitchy 90% of the time. I have snapped at MH more times than I can count in the past week. Last night, he got up from the couch and said "Hunny, I'm going to do the dishes. Are you done with that cup?" and, like a normal person, I responded with "FINE! I get it! I am a lazy slob who doesn't do anything! Excuse me for being too tired from taking care of a toddler, working full time, and now GROWING A PERSON INSIDE ME! You know what, you just sit there and I will do all the dishes and scrub every inch of the house. Is that what you want?!"
After a stunned silence, I broke into tears and sobbed that I needed a hug, but when my poor husband cautiously leaned closer, I said "You smell so bad, you are going to make me puke! Get away from me!" So he slowly backed into the kitchen and came back with a brownie. Again, the tears as I realized how ridiculous I was being and I started freaking out, trying to apologize and convince him I really did want him to relax while I did the dishes. Finally, I just went upstairs (with my brownie) and passed out. MH is a saint, but I have no idea how he handled all that crazy I am throwing at him. I definitely need to make a stronger effort to not fly off the rails constantly. Ugh.
So glad I'm not alone here! So many things bother me that didn't use to before. I either get incredibly angry or start crying! Yesterday, my mom told me a woman I've known my whole life said "I told my daughter to wait until they've been married at least 2 years before getting pregnant." She didn't realize I've been married over 2 years and I took it to mean she thought I should've waited longer. By the time my DH called on his way home from work I was crying on the phone! Now I feel stupid!
