  Grouchy...and not liking it :o(
  oboecop84 14/12/12
  So lately I've been waking up super grouchy in the mornings which is not me. That's my husband. So two grouchies in the morning makes things interesting before breakfast at my house. And in general, the grouchiness is stretching more and more into my day.
  Today, in my grouchiness, I snapped at my boss . I am SOOO thankful I work in a small office with VERY understanding people cuz it totally didn't phase him!
  I realize most of us are going through mood swings in our pregnancies, and I'm no different. I just need a place to vent where other ladies would understand. Cuz it's driving me crazy! Emotional is one thing...but I hate being grouchy and snappy at people...I left that behind in my teenage years and have no desire to regress back to that! I'm not always like this, but lately it just seems to hover over me.
  I don't like being not a nice person
  Yes yes and yea....I think I have just been so angry and scared that my hormones have been on overdrive. Mine goes through the whole day pretty much...I feel like some days are better than others and it's ok to have our moments.
  Don't feel too bad and I'm glad your boss is understanding. Luckily I don't have to deal with them and they all have been pretty understanding since they know this pregnancy has been so complicated.
  Anyways, just wanted to say I hear ya and hope that it gets better for you.
  Oh yes - cranky and grouchy and hiding in my office some days! If someone where to irritate me - I would explode!
  For those around me - I just remind them that I am preggers and hormonal and that includes my husband who is starting to understand that I don't mean anything nasty I say.

  I feel the most bad for my husband. I know I take a lot out on him and he's been really understanding most of the time. But I know it affects him at times too.
  Maybe it's nature's way of preparing him for what I may or may not say during delivery haha.
  Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone! I'm hoping Christmas holidays will help break this spell so I can get back to being me again!

  I'm with ya! I don't get why I'm so grouchy especially so near Christmas. I just have to remind myself that its *hormones, hormones, hormones* lol.
  I got a haircut on Thursday and have been having meltdowns every day because I hate the shape of it so much. I've actually envisioned going to my hairdresser and telling him off! I know its hormones but I really wish it would go away.
