I am so tired this pregnancy and luckily not naseous too.
I am yelling at the kids when I can't get up to stop the fighting and I really feel bad about it.
I keep thinking my new baby is going to see how
I treat my current kids and decide to not go through the pregnancy.
How can I practice patience?

i was AWFUL when i was pregnant with Emma and she decided to stick it out!!!!
just remember kids fight and it's OK...normal even.....tell you children that they will be spending alot fo quiet time in their beds if they don't practice better behavior!
when Emma gets grumpy i put her in her crib and let her have her tantrum....that way i'm not giving her attention and she is in a safe place!

I do find myself taking deep breaths before talking to anyone who even slightly annoys me, to avoid not biting their heads off. Of course, a few people have not noticed how considerate I have been of them in not biting their heads off, and are continuing to annoy me. ;)
I haven't been yelling at my daughter, but I HAVE been yelling more at my dogs. I'm hoping I'll have a nice short first trimester and then get back to my normal self again!!

I yelled at DH, which I NEVER do. I don't know where this comes from.
I find myself being very cranky at work (on the inside). I almost feel like I'm going to loose it and have to walk away.

I fussed at dh yesterday as well - but he deserved it lol! Seriously, I tend to get cranky during pregnancy. This time things are going well so far. I am taking cod liver oil, prenatals w/dha, and drinking liquid chlorophyll. This routine seems to be doing pretty well to keep me from getting exhausted which helps my mood. Of course, I am only 4 weeks and 2 days so we'll see how I feel in a few weeks!

I am really, really NASTY too lately. I hate feeling like this, for a good cause, but still hate being so nasty mean. I am trying the whole walk away from the fitghing Ihave going on here, or the tantrums:lol My 2 yr old boy can sure throw them!:dizzy:

My tiredness is making me really short with the kids as well. Sometimes they deserve it, though, let's face it, LOL. I can at least walk away for a few minutes (have older kids watch littler kids) so that's a help to me. This too shall pass and then you'll be your old self again. :)

ooooh mama am I nasty. Dh called me a Wolverine today. I am normally very sweet but its like this pregnant demon that takes control of me. I feel possessed :lol . I almost got violent today with one of my coworkers:lol because she told me she was 8 weeks pregnant. And she wasnt even trying. Now normally I would have been sooo happy for her but I seriously wanted to smack her:loveeyes: .
