Feeling constantly irritated

I am currently 6+5 weeks pregnant and I am not sure if I have unknowingly had a brain transplant!

During this last week or so I have felt constantly irritated with situations which I would usually brush off. There have also been a couple of work things where I don't seem to be on the same page as everyone else (which is unusual). I don't particularly want to give specifics but for example, a work incident happened and I thought it was best handled one way (pragmatic/move on etc), but everyone else said it should be handled another way (extremely delicately). Usually I would go with the consensus and not think about it too much, but I find myself increasingly irritated with everyone. There has been a couple of other things like that this week...e.g. where I feel distinctly un-empathetic/cold towards what has happened and everyone is running around worrying about feelings.

Not sure what I hope to gain from posting, but can anyone else relate to turning into an ice queen? 😅

I guess it must be hormonal, but I would have thought I would feel more sensitive/empathetic...not less! Hope this doesn't last for too long, I am not usually like this!

Hormones! I always tend to be less tolerant when pregnant, although with this one I cried at Bluey (the kids tv show) the other day, I’m not usually emotional at all. They really mess you up 😂
