Am I a sulker?

Having read a couple of sulking related threads recently, I've recognised some undesirable traits in myself. I got the rage yesterday when DH "told me off" for looking at my phone while his parents were leaving our house where they had spent the day looking after our toddler. They were already on the way out of the door and just said bye over their shoulder (don't do hugs with them except special occasions) so I didn't think he had much of a point, although had he have spoken to me in a better manner I may have agreed that it was a bit rude and I was sorry and I wouldn't do it again. I just felt so angry that he spoke to me like a child and I'm so irrationally annoyed about it and still can't speak to him properly without feeling like crying. We hardly ever argue and I feel like a dick for appearing sulky, especially after comments on other threads talk about sulking and crying being manipulative. This isn't normal is it? I think I'm incapable of having a 'feels' discussion without crying.

I'm also nearly 6 months pregnant and sleep deprived if that makes any difference, although this type of thing has happened a time or two before and my reaction has been similar so not convinced I can blame the bump!

Feeling better having written it down so go easy on the 'get a grip' comments :)
