I found dd got more and more clingy as pg progressed and was actually a million times better once ds was born. So I think some of your stress is definitely pg related. Fwiw my 2 year old had me in years today because I'm struggling to find games he actually wants to play. I'm a sahm and dedicate my time to my kids and yet every game I try and engage him in he kicks or chucks the pieces or hits his sister etc. so I think 2 yo boys are very tricky creatures unless you're willing to run around the park all day (and who can do that while pg??)

I think so much if pregnancy is confronting these fears and tackling big emotions. I know I cry rarely as a normal person then almost daily when pg. it's just the way the hormones work for some of us.
