Emotions

So far other than crying a little easier than normal, at 4 weeks and 5 days my emotions have not been terrible. But then today started, I am finding myself so irritable and snappy! I've had to listen to calming music while driving around on my lunch break. Anyone else feeling some amped up mood swings?

Re: Emotions

  • I'm weepy at everything... a gospel choir on a TV show, a mildly emotional commercial, the fact that my mom is coming back from visiting my brother. It's ridiculous, lol
  • Loading the player...
  • I definitely have a short temper than usual right now. I think a mix between hormones and stress of juggling a toddler and the shock of realizing I’m about to throw a newborn in the mix! 
  • My boyfriend said a word I didn’t know. I asked Alexa for the definition. I thought it was a teasing word and felt dumb- then ugly cried for 5 minutes while sobbing “don’t look at me” as he tried to comfort me. I don’t remember the word. 

    I am a mess. It happens. 
  • WTC here but emotions certainly coming into play around all of it
  • I'm at 5 weeks, definitely a hot mess. Crying often (not typical for me), short temper (only semi-typical for me lol), and completely exhausted, which makes both worse. This is my first time, and I feel like it's going to be a wild ride. 
  • Wow at 5 weeks. I feel for you, How long were to TTGP?
