super emotional

[One Art]

is anyone else super emotional right now? Every little thing is HUGE to me right now and I cry at the drop of a hat. I hate it, and I know it is driving dh up the wall... I am sure a lot of it is pregnancy hormones that can't be avoided, though of course dh nearly left a couple weeks ago which is something that isn't gotten over easily.... so anyway, I am wondering if anyone has any tips or tricks for how to not burst into tears over the smallest things....or how to make it funny or something, I don't know... because I'm really not that miserable, but then I feel like i am the most down and out depressed person in the world because I can't stop crying!

Yep, me too. I am either irritable or feeling weepy. I find laughing at myself seems to help and just keeping in mind that I don't have much longer until I have this baby!!

Oh honey, you sure ain't the only one.

DH and I have been having our own set of problems and it seems to me like nearly every single day I find myself sitting on the floor sobbing hysterically. I haven't cried like this since I was about fourteen! It's been ... well ... hellish.

But then again I can also fall into a huge bout of giggles with only the slightest provocation. And that I most definitely enjoy.

Hugs to you. We're all in the same boat.

Yeah, laughing hysterically seems to do the trick for me. It's not been as bad for me right now but several weeks ago it was horrible. To make matters worse I was visiting my family and they were getting a little freaked out by the bawling and then psychotic laughing that followed.

I've been going throught the crying and the laughing. I have also had several anxiety attacks. My DH has been pretty understanding but my mom and sister treat me like I am totally irrationally and psychotic which doesn't help. Just remember that it is okay to cry when you want to especially if you have been going through alot emotionally with your dh. I just try to either do it in private if possible or assure everyone around me that I am fine. Hang in there we are all there with ya.

I feel the same way that some days I can cry at the smallest thing. Like this morning .... I was suppose to have a Dr. Appt last Friday, they called last Thurs. rescheduled it to today, then just got a call this morning to tell me they can keep the appt but I wont get to see my Dr. UGH! It's been an issue this whole time around, I haven't seen my Dr. in a month and since she's got vacation coming I wont see her now for a total of 8 weeks. Ok so it's a simple routine visit why should I be so upset. But I'm doing all I can not to cry in front of my DD. (Of course it's not even as close as the emotions you are going thru with DH.) I can only hope that time will pass and hormones will subside for all of us soon!!!!!!!!!
