My mood swings
If I told you the number of times I have cried about silly things or the things I cry about, you would laugh at me. During this pregnancy my mood swings has been up and down the whole way through. So many times I find that I just want to cry and I do not know why. I feel miserable for no reason, all I want to do is lie down in bed and cry.
The last silly thing that I remember that I cried about was when the washing machine door broke with me. I knew that it could be fixed and there are spare parts but I just couldn’t help myself from crying.
Movies and TV programs are another story with me. I cry so much when watching something emotional. Especially if it involves a child, I can not look at a sick child on TV. Even if I have seen the program before, it still affects me and I could cry.
Why do some people’s mood swings make them happy and not me. I find myself mostly miserable, and upset. Could it be the pains that are accompanied with pregnancy that has an affect on how my mood is.
Also I find myself thinking a lot and making problems for no reason. Making a big deal out of nothing. I tend to bring out problems of things that has passed. I really feel sorry for my poor husband, the number of times I had a fight with him over silly things is unbelievable. There are so many times when he tries to joke with me to cheer me up but I end up shouting at him. I just would not be in the mood to joke or talk even.
Also I noticed if I am not in a good mood and he asked me the same question twice I end up shouting. I just do not think about it until later on. My mood swings are extremely terrible when I am tired or in pain. I just cant stand anyone talking to me, I want to be left alone. I am just worried that these terrible mood swings will last long after giving birth. I am aware that they can last for a further three months postpartum.
