Some days I feel like a bad person. I mean, I know im a good person but my mood swings get the best of me MOST of the time during this pregnancy so far. I am usually the happy go lucky person with a big cheesy smile on her face. But recently I have felt so negative and down. I feel like I criticize everything in my everyday life and have a bad attitude now. Eric has even noticed and says that I am being negative lately and complaining more. Hopefully it's just the hormones.....? I dont want to be like this when the girls get here. I just want my old self back :(

I guess I didn't know who else to share this with. But I know you ladies are super supportive and can get me out of this funk as you have many times before.

It is absolutely the hormones. I get like that too and usually I am really happy and nice. I work in a Dr's office and every once in awhile I have to catch myself from not being so nice to people. I have always strived to be super nice for our patients here since I have been treated so poorly in Dr's offices and would never want someone to feel that way here.
Anyways you will be back to your old self (only a much more tired extra coffee drinking version).
It helps me sometimes to remember how lucky I am to be pregnant and having a healthy little baby and a wonderful man to share it with =)

I'm sorry!!  If it's any consolation...My best friend was a beast during her first pregnancy (I wasn't around for the other 2 bc she moved away with military hubby) and she has gone back to her old self a little while after they were born.  It took her a few months, but she's herself again each time :)

Thanks ladies! I was starting to think that I was becoming a selfish bitter old maid! haha I guess I just have a lot going on with work and not being completely ready for babies (and finances!) that I stress myself out at times. I am just ready for them to be here and "cross that bridge when we reach it". I know we will do fine, im just nervous/scared/and VERY emotional right now. Thanks for getting me back on track.

Hormones! LOL! And girl dont worry...since ive been pregnant ive been moody too! Im sometimes mean to my husband lol. I find that i snap easily on someone that irritates me or someone that says something i dont agree with instead of holding my tongue. I sometimes get angry when i look at myself in the mirror because of the weight gain and i end up taking it out on my husband! Im normally bubbly and sweet, but lately ive just been irritated and frustrated. So its normal to be this way...im guessing lol. I hope i go back to the old me after i have this baby also lol!
