Anyone else feel overly emotional?

[Pinkfan1]

Hi, would love to know if this emotional roller coaster during pregnancy gets any easier. 26 weeks and I'm really struggling to keep it together. Feel lonely and isolated, covid isn't helping that which I appreciate there's nothing that can be done.
Thank you

I’m only 8 weeks but I do feel more emotional than normal, it could be a mixture of pregnancy hormones and the current situation x

Same here..I'm struggling as weve been moved up a tier so I cant see friends now. Have only got husband and he doesnt want to do anything outside of the house with me, or anything inside apart from watch tv in separate chairs.
I'm feeling lonely, isolated and I'm just crying all the time. Hope it gets easier. I'm 18weeks

Overly emotional and lonely over here

I would love to talk to my friend about my pregnancy but she has been struggling to conceive for the past three years so I don't want to come across as insensitive.

Definitely! I'm 8 weeks with my second and very felt so down (not depressed or anything that serious but just very deflated 😔).
DH nowhere near as supportive as he was last time during the morning sickness stage which he knows is hard for me due to my phobia of being sick.
My DD is only 6 months old so it's not like it's my first pregnancy during covid times, that one was great, didn't get any of the anxiety people kept going on about but this time I'm a complete wreck!

Yes! 22 weeks here and have cried every day for the last week. I am usually quite positive minded and up to now haven't let covid get the better of me, but last week just felt like a major step back and that things are never going to get better.

On top of that I have anterior placenta and haven't felt the baby move yet which is always in the back of my mind. I feel like I'm missing out on an amazing part of being pregnant and that I may never really feel anything.

@screwcorona (love the name by the way!) The feeling of stir craziness is real! My DP is up for doing stuff but the frustration is that in tier 4 there is nothing to do! Weather's crap. So we end up watching mind numbing tv all day too.

@feistymumma I hope you're ok, how far along are you?

So sorry everyone heres going through this too then...pregnancy is emotional enough at the best of times. If it can just get better enough to go stay with my sister for a night or two before baby due I'd be so happy.

If we get nicer weather soon and can get out a but hopefully that will make everyone feel a bit better

@Screwcorona @feistymumma @eternalflame2020 @FiFia @Mommabear20 it saddens me to think that you're all feeling this way too. However it gives me confidence that we're not alone.

It seems really daft for everyone to struggle emotionally and mentally with no one to talk to who would like the idea of a WhatsApp group? Could be a little platform for support. If you would like to be part of it, please inbox me your number and I'll create a group chat 🤗

How's everyone feeling today?

My day started off great but took a massive dive when DD decided to scream for over an hour because she was tired but refused to go to sleep and I had a complete meltdown. She's been asleep for 10 minutes now and I have a work meeting to go to in 20 minutes so will have to wake her up in about 10 🤦‍♀️

@Mommabear20 thanks for asking. Hope it gets easier and less screaming for you as day goes on

Not been as bad this morning but things have been hard with my marriage too (that's another thread) the last few days have been stressful and emotional. I'm just going to watch some Real Housewives of beverly hills and try to relax. Good old trash tv and might break open some xmas chocolate

I'm 27 weeks today and keep having some very emotional bouts for no reason! Think it's a combination of the pregnancy and the current situation. DH doesn't know how to deal as this is our first but he is coping extremely well! Trying to distract myself with things whilst off work til the new year and telling myself it will all be ok in the end and it's normal for hormones to be all over the place.

Omg yes!! I'm 24+4 and I'm literally all over the place - crying one minute and angry the next (not sure what about!). It really is a rollercoaster being pregnant 🙈

I honestly don't recall being this emotional last time! I don't know whether it's just different this time round or if it's because I've got DD to take care of too but it's really not fun 😭
God the things we go through for our babies!

Feeling the same way over here 26 weeks too.
As it was said it's a mix of can't see my family or friends because of covid which makes me feel isolated and pregnancy hormones i guess...
It is a bit sad.
