3rd Trimester Blues?

During my first two trimesters I didnt have the easiest time symptoms wise but I was able to deal pretty well mentally with my new pregnancy related limitations. Ever since I entered the 3rd trimester though Im just feeling really down most of the time. Not always, I love being able to feel my little girl move around, and listening to my fiance talk to her and kiss my belly when shes kicking is just the best things ever. Ive just noticed that Im more frustrated than ever about not being able to do certain things that I could before being pregnant. I cry at the stupidest things, have crazy mood swings, and get angry about things I cant do. Anyone else experiencing this at all? I feeling like Im going crazy! Im a ftm so Im nervous about my girl being here and afraid that I wont be ready but at the same time Im so anxious now to be at the pregnancy finishing line.

I agree.  I have less patience with my toddler for sure!  I find that trying to do daily things for her are getting really hard now.  Getting her out of the tub for one lol! Snuggling in Her rocking chair before bed since she doesnt fit on my lap anymore! I work full time so by the time i get home and do dinner and clean up we play for a bit then it is bedtime.  Bedtime is always The most stressful time of the day for us since she doesnt want to sleep and i am physically and emotionally exhausted. She had also been testing me since i have been pregnant to see what she can get away with! That being said I am trying to enjoy being pregnant with all its aches and pains as this is our last baby and i know it is much much harder when baby gets here! I am never going to sleep again! Ahhh

I'm glad to hear Im not the only one! I only wish I could get the rest Im needing, Im positive thats adding to my bad attitude. Im still working 9 hour days 5 days a week in an office thats is constantly shorthanded which means no breaks! Customer service should be banned while pregnant, Im definitely not as nice as I used to be!

Hi, I do feel like that sometimes. I know I'm pregnant, but it's still hard assuming that all of a sudden things falling on the floor are no longer easy to pick up... I'm not in the point of crying or getting angry, but I do get frustrated all the time. I also have these mixed feelings of wanting my girl here already but not being ready yet... Ftm. I guess it's normal. I trust that nature is wiser than me and instincts will guide me well. All the best.

Yup me too! Hang in there we have 90 or less to go! Use this time to get the much needed rest before she comes.  I plan on it! After all soon as she comes there wont be as much time to your self and even less time to sit with ur legs up...enjoy!
