I am ten weeks pregnant. This week has been a bit trying (Dd2 has broken her arm, few things have gone wrong, not major things but little things) and I have been rowing with everyone in the house.

I am taking things to heart, I feel hurt by in-laws inability to say congratulations about the baby, inability to show any concern for Dd2, annoyed sil has copied a birthday party I organised. I had such a blazing disagreement with dh on Friday that I stormed out of the car in the dark and got lost walking home. Little things are really niggling me and I have spent so much time in tears that even the kids are afraid to speak to me.

I have had pnd in the past. I want this baby, he/she is very much wanted but I feel so awful. Dh is afraid to talk to me, and he is annoying me because he won't tell his family how much they are upsetting me.

Do I need to speak to someone?

Hi there, didn't want to leave
Unanswered but being pregnant is hard going with all hormones etc surging. Also does sound like you have reasons to be upset and stressed, I cried for days when pregnant over not wanting to move into a beautiful house as I didn't like the neighbourhood. My partner thought I had lost the plot totally. I think you should go easy on yourself and definitely go and talk to someone just to have some support if anything.
Good luck!
