Pregnant at 43

My first pregnancy at 43. At 7 weeks now and my only concern tight now besides the health of baby is that I am so moody and ornery with my husband at times.  Anyone else feel this way and any suggestions?  Thank you for any advice.

I'm in my third trimester and am finding this is happening more now than the whole pregnancy.  It's very frustrating!

Thank you.  Congrats too.  That's encouraging. I try to keep my negativity in check more often. Hopefully it will go away. Good luck.

As your body adjusts to the hormones, it should get easier....either that or you are just getting better at dealing with them....lol...My theory anyway. Apologise when you think you are getting too cranky....and hopefully your hubby will understand that you're pregnant and that the end result is well worth any rough patches you might go thru together
