Anyone else cranky?

post #1 of 19
Thread Starter 
I am not enjoying this horrible mood cloud that has been hanging over me for the past few weeks. I was like this in the beginning of my last pg too- irritable, cranky, just a b**ch all the time. The funny thing is I'm not like this at all normally (OK, not THIS bad ). I just get really irritated by other people's comments, poor DH, my dogs, anything! I have been good keeping it under control on the outside, but it has added a lot of internal stress and I just can't figure it out! I wish it would go away...

yes I'm very cranky. Had an outburst with DH about something stupid. Got into a fight with my brother. Hmph.

I have a feeling I'm crankier because October will be here very very soon. My first miscarried baby was due at the end of October and I keep thinking..."I should be just about to give birth". I'm grateful to be pregnant..but it doesn't make it less hard. That is where my anger and crankiness is coming from I think. Ugh. It stinks though. I just want to feel normal.

I have massive mood swings and one of the ends is super crankiness. Completely irrational not attached to anything want to punch people just for being in the room crankiness. Fun times.

Yep, I've had a few instances where I've turned into a she-devil over really silly things. Bit unnerving really as one of the first signs that AF is on the way is mood swings so it's making me run to the loo to do a quick knickers check even more often

I'm so cranky...being tired is fueling it...my 2 yr old is adding to it....nausea, crampy all adding to it...blah (I am of course very happy to be pregnant, it's just hiding right now)

I am such a raging cow right now, it is not even funny. It's like watching myself from afar and going, "What the hell is wrong with you!? Calm down!".

I find my husband so incredibly aggravating over the past week... i just want him to GO AWAY and NOT SPEAK TO ME. Habits which I normally find mildly irritating now make me want to throw him out the front door.

I hope it doesn't last!

Oh man, SAME HERE.

I completely cannot stand anyone I work with anymore.

Oh for sure - definitely cranky over here. Unfortunately it's all been directed at my mother. I have a fierce need for independence when I'm pregnant & she turns super clingy & overprotective as soon as she finds out.
She asked me to confirm with my MW that it was ok for me to be in the car for longer periods in case the vibrations were bad for me....

Very. The littlest things are so aggravating to me. It's weird, because I'm usually not that way. I'm usually very laid back and not easily angered at all, but man these hormones are doing a number on me. I remember this happening last time too, but thankfully it greatly eased up by the 2nd trimester.

yep, MAJOR crankypants here. Doesn't help that DD has a cold and is majorly fussy either. DH is driving me insane too. I have to bite my tongue or I'd be yelling at him for everything!

Ugh...I am so glad there are so many of us bi***es here!

I feel like a ranting raving lunatic! My DH looks at me like I'm INSANE...and for that moment...I SERIOUSLY AM!

How do you all deal with your DH's while so hormonal!? I don't know what else to say to my DH to get him to comprehend that I CAN NOT CONTROL MYSELF! I am SO extra sensitive. He told me that I was "stupid" in the middle of the night the other night (while he was sleeping) because I couldn't get the covers out from underneath him. I am STILL upset about it and he hardly remembers and has apologized profusely!!

Mostly I've just been feeling exceedingly LAZY. I've been fishing clean laundry out of the basket for way too long. Who knows when it will ever get put away. I hate it when I'm behind on housework (which is virtually all the time), yet I just stare at it grumpily and walk away..

Me! Very mean lady here too. I have been like that with all of my pregnancies. In fact, DH and I share an inside joke about my pregnancy hormone craziness because I threw an egg (yes, raw) at him during early pregnancy with my first and I tossed a mostly full Pepsi can at him just days before we found out about #2. I haven't thrown anything yet this time.

I am a little better at outwardly controlling myself, but I agree that the inner battle is exhausting!
