What am I supposed to do...

[luvmybabes]

I wanted to be pregnant so  bad and now I am but there is one problem.. I can't be happy because I feel like Sh*t!!! I feel so terrible that I am not happy about being pregnant now...I am absolutley miserable. I have terrible mood swings..from angry to weeping in seconds. I am so tired I cant get off the couch which then makes me feel guilty that my children are bored because I can't play. I can't even let anyone hug me or kiss me because my skin crawls I get so aggrivated... ( except my children of course I would take kisses and hugs from them anytime) Last night my 4 year old said " mom you are ruining halloween because you are grumpy" which then made me cry. Should i talk to my doctor.

Oh honey it is all hormones normal completely. Maybe your doctor could give you something to help with it like zoloft or prozac.

No I don't want anything like that...but I just don't understand.. I have had two other pregnancies and I never was this bad. I feel nervous that I will be miserable the entire pregnancy.

I know you are really tired but try do get some exercise into your routine. 20-30 mins a day of something could help out a lot.

Thanks for the advice I just forced myself up and to the park with my kids for an hour and I do feel a little better :-)

It's all very normal. Try not to beat yourself up about it, hormone changes knock us all out of whack sometimes. They should level out in your second trimester and Heather had a great idea about exercise. I know it's hard when you have other children, but try and get some "ME" time and just relax, it helps me tremendously. Hope you feel back to yourself soon. :)
