stress? ugh!

OK ladies. So I'm 6w4d. Ftm. And today I feel like a complete idiot.  Even my boss called me a hormonal freak show. I feel like all I want right now is to be left alone. My mood magically flips on a dime. I  cry alot and barely sleep.
What are some things that can help possibly stable my mood swings so I don't flip out on my boyfriend about laundry or dishes? And what can help about sleeping more than 3 hours a night????

You ever told me that being pregnant was going to be fun and enjoy it is a fool. Because the past 2 or 3 weeks has been miserable for me. I mentioned earlier that sometimes my boyfriend can be insensitive. Tell me how someone that seen me basically struggle all night because I wasn't feeling good and fell asleep after a shower. In my bath towel, can come to bed, turn his phone on and play on it (sound and all) while I'm asleep. I woke up with a whole attitude.  Told him thanks for waking me up once again and grabbed my pillow and am now wide awake on my sofa. While he is sleeping in bed. Where I should be... ugh! I want to go in there and wake him up just for waking me up. No wonder I am so tired and cry all the time. This is no fun being pregnant for me.

I know the feeling. I get home from work and if my partner is in a bad mood, I get so mad because I know the rest of my day is ruined. I ***** about him to my friends and that helps me get out of my own head sometimes...otherwise I'm just running in circles over how I'm mad about the laundry or dishes or whatever I'm mad about. And my partner is pretty dense sometimes and doesn't know when to be supportive, so I feel really alone sometimes. I find the venting to my friends is really helpful, and they understand because they know it's mostly just pregnancy hormones making me grumpy. He doesn't seem to get that though. I hope you feel better soon. My first trimester I wasn't this angry, but I cried a lot, and Noe I'm just mad so often!

I bought the sleepy time tea. It helps but doesn't do the trick. I think my problem is staying alseep. Because once I wake up I stay up. It doesn't make it any easier that my boyfriend isn't the quietest person either. But I find some of his actions and comments so off the wall. I tend to go postal. He is not the sensitive type. But I wish he could be in my spot for a day.

I had the same problem my first trimester. It was gone for my second but it's coming back again. I tried sleepy time tea and a hot bath before bed to help me sleep. The mood swings... I would and do talk to my friends and family to vent about things. I mean I cry over clean folded laundry because I didn't have to do it and I was so happy. I also had a melt down and got in a huge fight with my boyfriend over what silverware to use eating mac n cheese.... He's learned to wait until I've calmed down and I will apologize cause I know I am being crazy. Exercise helps too. I am 29 weeks AND it takes a lot out of me to exercise which keepse sleeping better and to exhausted to fight. Good luck!
