cranky

[mami2f3]

So, I can't stop the crying and stuff. I'm frustrated with everyone and everything. Is anyone in this boat with me? Yet, when people say "you're ready, huh? you're done" I want to bite their heads off! I'm only 36 wks and my dh is graduating 5/23 so I really want the baby to stay in, grow healthy and let me go to graduation! I'm not at all ready. The construction on our house is not even close. I don't have any baby stuff out of the garage because there's no where to put it.

Plus, I went to dr today and I'd been so excited about my GD results and they tested me and made me test my meter and it came out 20 points lower than theirs! She said I'd gained 7 pounds in the past 5 weeks. Is that so outrageous?

RRRRRGH
somebody talk me down!

Awww it sucks to be so cranky, and as usually in my case, I don't even really mean to be or try to be; just on a short fuse these days. Just is. Sorry you're not ready for baby to come. I'll send you "stay put baby" vibes. :

And btw, I don't think 7lbs in 5 weeks is bad at all.

I gained 8 one week....cause of my stress and swelling so no it's not that bad. Big hugs to you mama! Can relate big time.

Yep, sometimes I feel like the next person who asks if I'm ready to be done is going to get a smack.

As my mw says, as long as you're not dangerously obese, the more weight you gain is just more to lose later. No big deal.

I cried on the way to work and then snapped at dh all through work, even though he really didn't do anything wrong. I feel ya.

Cranky does not begin to describe it!! Yesterday, I practically had a breakdown! A crying, messy fit! Being tired, hormonal, and just done has left me with ZERO patience for my 3 year old. She is feeding off my negativity so she's being a total pain. Together, we are nasty and nastier!! I was sure I wouldn't be able to make it through today with just her and me...but I spent some time talking myself back up last night and things are going better today.

Thank goodness, my MIL arrives tomorrow evening for 2 weeks -- relief is in sight!!!!

Cranky is a good word to describe me today, and I think that's being nice. I really don't know what my problem is, I feel fine so I can't blame that. I'm tired but not exhausted. My poor kids, I'm so short with them today and I don't want to be.

i am cranky for sure... because i AM ready for this babe to come, just one more week would be perfect for me. i am ready for him to get out, but i don't think i will every be totally ready for birth, i mean, i haven't done it before so i don't REALLY know what i'm in for. but, i feel like the baby is causing all these things in me that i could really do without at this point (SWELLING, back pain, carpal tunnel, having to pee ALL the time...) :

I had to come back and respond again. I found myself earlier today slammin cubbords and being all pissy for no real good reason. I was just kinda looking for a fight. I think it was a way to vent off some stress. DH even said "want me to pick you up something to eat" lol. He thinks food is my magical happy fix. Then I felt bad cause after an hour or two I noticed the whole house was on eggshells. My poor boys. At least they are old enough to know the deal and blame it on hormones. We are so almost done

I am right with you all, I get so angry that boils my aggression, so i work super hard ie. weeding , then i start crying cause dh isn't helping me. I was up theother nite crying so bad thinking my dh need a different wife and not live in the country..
WTF ..... today I feel wonderful...so far
I am trying to stay away from my dd when I am freak out. I keep telling her mommy is having a bad day.

I hate hormones
