Angry, stroppy, awful mood swings - anyone else? 1st trimester

Im only 4+4, and my moods are horrid.
I have mental health issues anyway which really affect my moods but I take medication to try and stabilise them, however since being pregnant I'm just being a horrible bitch all the time to my partner, I feel so bad. Everything annoys me, I'm so snappy and irritable and most of the time want to just be left alone, I can't help it. We don't live together so he can go home to his flat, but I just feel so mean, and then I get upset because of how I'm acting but it feels like I can't control it. I don't remember being this bad with my other 2 pregnancies, is it just me??

I had a couple of 'episodes' of pure, irrational rage in the early days but I wasn't consistently angry. Have you told anyone other than your partner that you're pregnant? It might help to talk through how you're feeling with someone in RL.

Hormones are brutal!

@AllTheBs yeah my best friend knows, I've spoken to her. I just dunno what I can do about it, she reckons not seeing each other for a day or two might help, so I'll do that but I just feel awful. Absolutely everything gets on my nerves!
