Changing moods

tired/emotional

Claire1104

Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone else is an emotional wreck? I'm 26 weeks and cry at pretty much anything all the time! I'm constantly exhausted and keep getting told to take it easy. But I always thought people carried on as normal until a few weeks before baby due, so feel I'm being a wimp. Also asked work to change my hours as getting so tired, has anyone else had to do this?

Hiya! Im sorry to say but get used to it for when the babys born!! my daughter is nearly 9 months and my hormones are still all over the place-if im not crying at an advert on telly im wanting to punch someone for parking in a parent and child space without a child!!. As for being exhausted, i had to finish work at 35 weeks coz i just couldnt cope with it anymore. Just chill out as much as you can and get your partner running round for you!!
Good Luck!

Hi, i havent really been emotional at all since i have been pregnant.. apart from the time after having a big fall out with my cousin where we said some really nasty stuff. however, my partner said something to me last night (dont remember what it was!) and i turned & cried to myself in bed. for some reason i dont let him see me or know about it... he would be understanding, he's not a div or anything but i know it makes him feel bad when i cry! by the way i got 4wks left... i just want baby out now & to be myself again, to get my figure back etc because i just dont feel like the person my fiance fell in love with (even though he assures me im beautiful all the time!!) dont know what else to do x

Oh my God! I am in tears now!! Thought I was the only one feeling like this. I am so sick of everyone saying I should be happy and "blooming" when all i want to do is tell them to F off and sit and cry!!!
