38 weeks pregnant and terrible mood swings!

[Sconeintheoven]

I keep snapping at my precious 3 year old daughter and my husband (but he probably deserves it) and am feeling like a total bitch right now. My mood just keeps crashing down and I'm getting worked up over the smallest of things.

Please tell me I am not the only one and this will pass.

Your not the only one!!!! I can be a complete monster at times, my partner came to see me at the weekend and I screamed and swore at home because he hadn't text me first and I wanted a chance to put some make up on!! told him to go home and then sobbed for half hour after.....this last leg of pregnancy is the toughest....it's no wonder us women get cranky...I'm almost 36 weeks. Just be easy on yourself make time for pampering yourself always makes me feel a little better!!! xx

Thanks romomum. Yes I seem to be my own worst enemy at the moment, as well as everyone else's!
I think part of it is knowing that this huge (and excruciatingly painful) life changing event is about to happen and generally feeling a bit afraid of the unknown. Am worried that family life won't ever be the same again and worried that I'm going to lose part of my very close relationship with my dd with baby needing so much of my attention. I guess it's just quite a strange limbo period... Time seems to have slowed right down.. Waiting for this little boy to arrive, and knowing I can't relax until I have him safely in my arms.
Anyway, I feel stupid for moaning. There really is a lot to be thankful for and dd is very excited about it all. Am far too self absorbed at the moment.
I hope you're having a better day today romomum. We really are on the home stretch now!

You are not alone. I have a 10 month old DS to watch, who is lazy to crawl or walk. So needs to be carried everywhere. I'm 26 weeks pregnant. And sometimes I have those days where my hormones have reached the top. I then think my husband is not helping me with DS. (Not true, once he gets home from work he plays with DS, sometimes gives him a bath, and sends me to have a nice long relaxing bath my self)

Any day now you will hold your precious little one, I still have a long time to go..
