Third trimester, Christmas and emotions

Anyone else struggling with this?
I mean there is nothing specifically wrong!
I'm just having a moan.
I'm 35 weeks pregnant with a toddler DS.
Had PIL staying until today for 4 days, then seeing my side. DH did the whole Christmas dinner and all the grandparents are great with helping with the chores and DS. So in reality I'm very lucky. But I still feel utterly exhausted yet unable to relax, crying at random things and emotional. Got the standard aches and pains, PGP, heartburn.
I guess this is just pregnancy hormones turned up by Christmas excitement and tiredness?!
Everyone keeps asking if I'm ok which makes me want to cry more.
Obviously I'm a bit apprehensive about the upcoming baby. I feel very much in limbo, who knows when baby will come. How will I cope with two children. How will DS react to new baby. How will I get any sleep?!
Feel like I can't wait for Christmas to be over and just be us in the house again. Then I feel guilty for wishing away my toddler's Christmas - he's having a whale of a time!
