I have been exactly the same way.. So glad to hear its not just me.. Up until a few weeks ago I was in the "Everything is wonderful" stage.. The pregnancy hormones were keeping me all relaxed, calm etc.. THEN..... I became cranky about EVERYTHING!!!
I had less patience with my son, No patience at all for my husband and snapped at anyone who dare spoke to me!!
Then last weekend it all came to a head.. I cried and cried and then cried some more... I felt like i had so much to deal with, the renovations, getting everything ready, finding a name, looking after my son.. then i realised i have to go through child birth again, I decided i didnt want to breastfeed, I felt terrible i was going to be leaving my son to go to hospital etc, etc, etc...
After a few hours of a very patient husband and lots of tissues i have felt 100% better ever since...
I am still a bit crabby at times, but think I just neede a huge cry..I can Highly recommend this to all!!!!
Hun, first of all, to all who are going through the same thing. You are definitely not alone in this. I have been feeling the same way too although DH doesn't seem to understand why I have turned into a emotional balloon... Last week, I burst into tears when DD took tissue paper out from the box and started tearing it all over the place... When I couldn't pick up something from the floor, I get frustrated and burst into tears... I feel like I have turned into a crying machine where in reality I am usually not a crier as well. These days have been extremely long since my leg swelling is so bad that I have a hard time putting on any shoes to go out... so I've been avoiding to go out as much as I can... and when I'm so sick of staying home, I cry because I feel so sick of staying home without being able to get some fresh air... I think the last weeks really get to us since we're so close and yet so much go through our minds....
Don't worry, it's not too much longer and you'll have all the joy in the world... before you know it, you'll burst in tears of happiness!!!! Hang in there, hun... we're almost there!
