Mood Swings!

hey guys

i am 6 weeks pregnant and i am having the most unbeliveable mood swings!
i can see myself that i am a nightmare to live with at the mo, im biting my partners head of everytime he says something, i know that im doing it but cant seem to stop!

has anyone else had this? is there anything i can eat or take to calm them at all?

thanks

Get used to it. I am 27 wks pregnant and it is still happening. It is the hormonal changes in your body that is doing it. Sometimes I open my mouth and nasty stuff comes out then I look at my husband and ask "Did I really just say that?"
Your partner needs to understand what is happening to you as well. Everything is changing. Most of the time my dh just smiles and nods at me and moves on hopefully yours can and will too.

Hang in there.

Layla,
Same here, I'm 7 weeks and this morning we went to church and everybody parked in the schoolyard, and of course the ones who were blocking the gate came out last.  The f word happened to slip out right after church, my husband was ashamed, I wasn't...I just can't help it sometimes.  But it's normal, maybe try to count to 10 next time you're about to hurt someone's feelings, I have to try the same.  I'm an emotional nut!!!
Good luck, if you can't stop maybe we can say nasty things to each other and just let go...just kidding.:)

i actually read in one of my books that your sugar can start normalizing somewhat at the end of pregnancy. it showed a plateau between 30 and 37 weeks and then it started to go down so maybe that is what is happening. mine never did that but the second i had him mine went back normal. i have tested mine several times since just to see and it is always low no matter what i eat. any day now! :)

That's good to know. Thanks. I only have 3 test strips left and I really want to test after he's born, so I'm not testing anymore. It costs $40 for 100 and even if I get 50 it's still $40. I don't need that many and my numbers have been so good that I feel okay not testing since I'll keep eating the same foods that I know are safe. My doc has been having me tested at the lab every Friday and my numbers are good so I'll just go with his testing till the baby is born. I'll tell ya though, it doesn't feel like he's ever coming out. But I still have 9 days left so it's not like he's late. I just still feel good, no contractions. Cramping, but not a lot. It's a waiting game :o)

ALOT OF TIMES IT DOES GET BETTER AFTER THE FIRST TRIMESTER

I answered you in the open forum yesterday, would you have a look, I had a question. Thanks.

I do the same thing but not all the time......I seem to be the type that will let stuff build and build and then BLOW!!!!!!!!
And then I cry and cry and cry......
But there are times that I say something and then I'll be like....."did I just say that outloud"........thought I was just thinking what an ass he was being........LOL
Just hope your other can understand. :)

[laylarampton]

yeah he understands to a point, but im really nasty to him!

i can hear myself doing it and thinking, stop it! but i cant seem to stop, is horrible

[Brinck002]

I remember at the beginning of my pregnancy I was horrible! My husband always remarks now when I snap at him that at least it's not like the first trimester! It's just the hormone levels in your body adjusting. It'll pass. I'm now 38 weeks and occasionally I'll get craby and nasty but nothing like in the beginning. It's now more amusing to look back on!
