Hormonal mess!

[HelgatheHairy]

I made it to 37 weeks without being TOO bad but ever since last week I'm a mess. I'm 38 weeks today and between the crying over everything I'm feeling slightly panicky when DH isn't around. And I'm someone who has always been very comfortable with being on my own.

I've also come to the decision I'm not really in a position to drive any more. I've been feeling slightly lightheaded and my concentration level isn't up to it. Which is probably going to cause a problem with my father (long story, he's 85, his sister is in hospital and its always been expected that I'll do whatever is needed but I really can't right now) so I'm worried about that.

Had a minor argument with DH today and ended up sobbing on his shoulder. His comment was "this baby needs to come out soon!"

This was ment to be lighthearted sorry!

It sounds like you're having a really difficult time at the moment. I have no experience of hormones having such an effect but I'm sure someone will post very soon. You're nearly there xxx

I'm with you but at 37 weeks its the angry hormones for me! Everyone and everything is annoying me.

Am hoping these added hormones mean things are moving along quickly?!?!

Fraggle I've really had a really straightforward pregnancy - not even any morning sickness so this hormonal thing has come out of the blue and taken me and DH by surprise! It's my first pregnancy.

sparkle I've had moments of wanting to kill both DH and my father - and then start crying cause I feel guilty! Fingers crossed for speeding things along!

This is my first pregnancy too. I've also by passed the MS and I've only had a few hormonal ups and downs. Good luck with everything. From what I've read what your going through is totally normal xxx

I have been a hormonal mess throughout pregnancy... really angry and irritated at everything especially my DH but also at my mum and others. I have turned into a moody judgemental nightmare... everything irritates me I even irritate myself... can't wait for baby to come .. I hate the way I have been when pregnant... please tell me this gets better after!

Aw, I'm a hormonal mess too, I'm 40+2 now an thoroughly fed up. Don't worry about it, you will remember hormonal outbursts and laugh about them. I think the worst hormonal moments follow the birth tbh, you will sob over socks and spilt washing up liquid and cat food. It's normal :) x
