I spend the whole of my pregnancy screeching

crying

ranting

blubbing

and even ended up with a move back to England

hope that helps a teeny bit

I will take on bikers or anyone at the moment. If something makes me cross thats it i will fight to the death

Its like 9 months of PMT.

Last month I was driving and I cut a woman up. She came up behind me and flashed her lights. I thought fair play. But then she kept on doing it for another half a mile.

RIGHT (John Cleese style.) I pulled over, wound down window and screamed abuse as she drove past. Then I got behind her and followed her. She turned left so I followed, and then left again trying to get away. I chased her round a housing estate.

Would never ever do anyhting like that if I wasn't pregnant. Makes you evil.

Will bollock husband then cry with remorse for half an hour after.

CindersIsNotApoet · 30/07/2010 20:16

OnEdge · 30/07/2010 20:18

Oh yes, also, last week, DD 3 has been in ballet show. Without warning, at ballet class the teacher put the DVD of the show on.

I cried my eyes out, sobbing the lot

Under normal circumstances, this would warrant a lump in my throat, but I went to peices

CindersIsNotApoet · 30/07/2010 20:20

I'm with you PJC, I'm not hysterically crying so much now as I was in the early stages but am so fed up and fucking uncomfortable that my meltdowns tend to involve me sitting on the floor in a heap, leaning over the table or sideboard or just laying in bed, all accompanied by looks of despair and utter defeat.

Onedge I am LOLing at your story, I am v close to doing something similar, or just literally stopping my car and getting out and yelling at the person behind me.

PussinJimmyChoos · 30/07/2010 21:19

I gave my poor friend grief today...she makes a fab curry and I said to her if I bring you the chicken would you mind very much making me one for lunch as I really really fancy it (was going there for lunch anyway). She said no worries, so I took the chicken out to defrost last night.

Was on my way and she texts me. Pulled over and read it and and she had said what about fish and chips instead.... instead of texting back and saying oh I'm on my way with the chicken now, I ranted I'm on my way with £10 worth of chicken breasts that I defrosted especially and I can't take it back home now as it needs to be cooked (am funny about chicken being out of the fridge etc)...I said forget it, I'll just have a cuppa and will give the chicken to another friend . Actually called DH sobbing that she didn't care that I'd defrosted £10 worth etc...

When I finally got there, we sorted it all out and I burst into tears - she was lovely and no hard feelings but ffs!! Over sodding chicken!! I need a padded cell

CAn I have a padded cell as well? I am being a beast at the moment, the 24/7 sickness and nausea isnt elping, nor are my two boys who are playing up because there is so much changing at the moment.

It gets to about 8pm and i want to rip someones head off or fall into a ball of sobs!!

PussinJimmyChoos · 30/07/2010 21:49

Its hard for the existing children isn't it? DS is 4 and although I took him out for quite a bit today, when I got home and was trying to get the dinner, he was all can you play with me mummy, can you play with me and I had to keep saying no as I'm cooking etc and then he looks all sad and I actually feel like shit tonight for not playing with him

I'm wondering if, although I tend to take him out a lot for mixing with his friends (and he has nursery x3 days a week) if he actually wants one on one time with me but I go stir crazy - have to be out of the house by 10.30am ish and have something to do! I will do crafts etc with him but not as often as I used to

When I was about 8 months pregnant I took our car to the garage next to where I work as I had been trying to find out for days if we could get ISOFIX put in our car as I had heard you could on some ford focus models. Explained to the garage owner the situation, and that I had been unable to find out from anyone at Ford, who just passed me around on their phone lines. Whilst explaining this to him I burst into uncontrollable and hysterical tears - obviously was really embarrassed which made it worse. No idea what it was that set me off, poor man was so lovely to me. I actually popped back in the next day to apologise for my hormonal outburst and bless him, he started telling me his wife had a whole loft full of baby things that I could help myself to as they weren't going to have any more children and if there was anything she could do for me just to ask!

My car will need to go back in soon for a service, perhaps I should make dh take it...

Julezboo · 30/07/2010 22:06

PIJS, its is hard, MIL has been having mine alot as I have hyperemesis and reoccuring UTI's. So I am a USELESS hormonal beast at the moment.

My mum is coming for a few days tomorrow and its probably a good thing because she will tell me off for being horrible to everyone lol

Porcelain · 30/07/2010 22:16

I cried on Sunday because I was in Asda carpark and couldn't find a space, then the one I did find, some bitch was right up my backside and I couldn't get into it.

OnEdge, there was a Finnish study recently that showed that pregnant mums who ate chocolate had happier babies. I think that is reason enough, as long as you don't exceed the caffeine recommendation.

MassiveBumperlicious · 31/07/2010 08:11

Oh goodness, I am the worse mum in the world at the moment. I basically haven't slept a full night since I got pg, what with sickness, insomnia and now just general pain/discomfort. My patience levels are at about 0.01 and I am mean and crabby

I'm already the least favoured out of me and DH, I fear that being pg and having a newborn is going to drive a wedge between me a DD. I'm just so tired all the time, I want to cry

sassy34264 · 31/07/2010 10:12

I'm 8 months pregnant now and my temper has died down a lot, but I'd say for the first 5 months, it was a case of move out my way! I overheard my mum telling my brother to just do what your sister wants for now. Oops.

ToriMarguerite · 04/08/2010 21:13

I came searching for a thread like this one, I'm so glad I found it. I saw someone mention a padded cell - I feel like I need one too.

Everyday I come home from work and regret my angry self, its like waking up after a night of too much booze and remembering all the embarrassing things you did. I keep lowering my self to the level of idiots and engaging in pointless arguments with them and sending stroppy emails. As if that isn't shameful enough, I then tell colleagues about it so they know how unstable I am.

Then I worry all night about how out of control I am. DH just says 'don't worry, it will be fine, I know you're having a hard time...' which is kind but I want someone in the same boat to identify with...
