Mood Swings

Is anyone else dealing with having mood swings and / or being grumpy??!?  I find myself these days extremely sensitive & irritable!!  I don't seem to have the patience I had before ... and at times feel as though I am crying for no reason.. Anyone else experiencing this?

Camomile tea now a turn off - made some to go with my lunch and the smell made me wretch, let alone a few sips - came back off lunch feeling quite sick. Any suggestions of what I can use now?

I moody and cranky and I don't know whether I am actually pregnant yet!!! I have had a missed period (2 weeks ago) and am displaying loads of the other symptoms, but have had 2 negative tests (last one last Tuesday), but going to wait a little longer to try a 3rd one - to see if hcg goes up and I am actually pregnant. I flip into an emotional wreck if I don't know what I'm doing or going (when driving), which my poor husband is getting fed up with. I'm drinking camomile tea, which does help to chill me out. I hope I am pregnant 'cause I don't know why I'm like this otherwise!

Oh and I wasn't really moody or cranky at the beginning of my pregnancy, but as it's nearing it's end..I've been more cranky lately...maybe the hormones hit me a little late..lol

lol..I've been feeling all sorts of emotional wackness lately! Like, last Wednesday, I stood in line for 5 hours for the H1N1 vaccine outside in the sun. I got home and had to arrange a court date for my parents and was placed on hold for 30 min and they hung up on me!! And all of a sudden I just bursted into tears!! Afterwards, I was like what in the heck!! I guess I was just so stressed and tired from all the waiting..but I didn't expect to cry about it! lol...and it's like people have been getting on my nerves lately & I snap at them..I just want to be left alone sometimes! Stupid mood swings!

Thanks JoeDoe!

Well congrats!  Awesome news!!
Finally I'm in my third trimester and I find myself not being mooody like that anymore!  I would say I'm just sensitive and perhaps over emotional at times....I think in the beginning you are gonna find that your gf will be moody/emotional/etc. because it is a drastic change on the body and her hormones are probably saying 'What the heck is going on here?"  LOL  Just try to be patient with her (may be tough) let her vent be an ear for her....she will get better...trust me!  I was worried with myself for awhile, I actually felt bad for my husband at times...LOL

All the best!!

I am a man who just found out my gf is pregnant .
And let me tell ya it was a great news cause This would be my first child
My GF is we think 2-4 weeks pg and boy :((( She is so moody , that I do not
recognize her at all . She turned into a monster overnight .
What do you ladies recommended I do ? How do I deal with it ?
Anything I say gets turned into a fight or cry .
So Jonezy you are defiantly not alone with the mood swings sister  :)
