I am so freaking emotional. DH and I DTD the night before last and I cried for no reason afterwards, it was not a sad cry but just an overwhelming emotional cry. And then last night, I went to a movie night thing for the town with my sister and my girls and I was crying throughout the movie.........the movie was CARS!!!!! I mean, c'mon! Then late last night, I was in a snuggle, make out mood and DH was in a full on DTD mood and he kind of seemed bummed when I told him that I really just wanted to snuggle and kiss and it may get me in the mood, but he just leaned back and told me to snuggle with him. I fell asleep and woke up maybe half an hour later to him putting in a movie and drinking a Mikes Hard Lemonade. I asked him what was wrong and he said 'nothing' and I told him it was 1 am and could tell something was wrong because he was up and having a drink. He said he was just awake and couldn't sleep. Well, for an hour I laid there and he finally fell asleep, But I didn't, I was awake until 3am crying because I had this feeling he was upset that I didn't want to DTD. He swears that that was not the case at all, and I do believe him, today. But last night was so emotional and all he was doing was watching a movie and having a drink. I do not know why I got so upset. This morning, I was still upset and have cleaned my entire house, and now am in a fantastic mood but, to be honest, I am scared of when my next stupid breakdown will be, and what it will be over. Am I the only one who is like a emotional roller coaster on high drive?? What can I do to stop my emotions from taking over? I just turned 18 weeks.

Hormones totally suck don't they!!!! I get the same way...I am way more emotional at night, then in the morning I rationalize with myself. Cleaning always makes everything feel better though...lol.

Hormones suck, that is for sure. I was in an all out screaming match with DH over the phone. NO idea why, but 10 mins later he said, you yell all you want, it is not good for you and you need to relax and I am going to ignore you. I never yell. Weird, plus I have been on pelvic rest due to a tear in my placenta since week 5, yes ladies week 5, we are at week 20, so 15 weeks of no DTD for us. It will probably last all pregnancy. So tell your DH's to be grateful they get it at all. LOL

As for DTD......I feel your frustration! We originally concieved August 19th and then we started spotting, so no DTD. Then we miscarried which meant no DTD for 6 weeks. Then we did once October 31st, concieved again, started spotting again, then had couple of heavy bleeding episodes......I am 21 weeks and my poor husband only got to DTD 3 times since August and it doesn't sound like we will have permission until after I am healed after delivery.....over 1 year! Poor guy, I guess in our case what they say is right, you get married and the DTD stops!!

Gosh Im glad I am not alone!!! I feel like my hormones are taking control sometimes!!! ~~~ And I DEFINATELY notice i am mean, and bitchy and edgy, moody, grouchy and just really mean to DH at NIGHT (probably because im so worn out and overtired at that time) and i hate when he wants to do something at night... im just too wiped out from taking care of Chloe all day... i would rather wake him up in the mornings... but a lot of times i wake up in the morning and remember how stinkin mean i was the night before, while i am falling asleep i can say some mean things... especially if he is touching me or playing with me... agh hormones. Im also getting AGGITATED at my INLAWS on their damn name suggestions, i just dont want any which is why i decided its going to be a secret!!!!

your telling me about pushy in-laws, giving me advice on how to do everything from going to school next semester to what date we will set for our wedding. It is annoying as hell, although they think they might be older and more wise. I am not a child but an adult, who is soon to be a parent and should be able to make my own decisions. As far as emotions, I got really hormonal about 18 weeks. I was crying at the drop of a hat. It has leveled off a bit now at 23 weeks though.


charee - March 21st, 2007 3:01 AM

Hahaha, yeah parents are no fun when they are pushy- and when you are an adult, parent, married and LIVE WITH THEM! Ahh... today i almost killed my mil - she came up and gave my daughter soda which i thought it was water- then she says grandma will just spoil you- its soda Chloe!!! And Chloe knows she is NOT allowed to have soda- that and coffee are really the only 2 things. I was so upset that she had to give it to her anyway i wanted to yell at her or slap her... im still kinda pissed- and she didnt even appoligize. It would be nice if she could TRY to be on the same page as me and my husband and not go against our wishes and rules for OUR daughter...

honey, I am also crazy, told my boyfriend I hated him and started packing my bags because he asked me why I didn't like a certain food. Try quitting smoking at the same time lol! I'm freakin Godzilla!



Allisonc79 - March 22nd, 2007 1:29 AM

whew, that would drive me and dh crazy if we had to live with our in laws, either side! But anyway, hormones are not helping, lol. Especially when you do most of household chores, take care of 3 cats and a dog.. etc. Whatever used to kind of get on your nerves is now at the forefront. I just don't have as much patience I guess.

I am very emotional too. I get upset because my df don't pamper me like I see other guys doing to their wives. He gets mad when I don't clean house, cook, do laundry, scrub floors, etc all the time. I can't, I am do damn exhausted! I work 10 hr days, 5 days a week, and get too tired to do all that. He said it is my obligation.....yeah maybe if I were a stay at home mom, but I work more than him and he don't do crap! He said its my job. We still have our x-mas decorations up outside and its almost April!!!! He told me to do it...ok yeah jerk, make your pregnant girlfriend go up on a ladder and take down lights and pack up all the x-mas decor....SCREW YOU!!!! AHHHHH! And he wonders why I get too damn tired to DTD!


charee - March 24th, 2007 3:37 AM

DTD... HA! I am just going to let my man suffer for awhile... for the past WEEK it feels like all he does, every day all day is put me down and tell me how stupid and clutzy i am- and that i am MEAN to our 2r old. I take care of her all the time and i love her and dont do the crap he thinks i do! Sure i get frustrated sometimes and dont handle what i say the right way but i think its normal. He NEVER takes care of her- or does anything to help (Dishes, meals, diapers, laundry, waking up with her in morning, putting her to bed, baths, dinner, reading, buying wipees, cleaning house, GOING TO OB APTS! Taking prenatals, drinking enough water- QUITTING DRINKING AND SMOKING! (which he never does) etc etc etc). Men are very selfish people and they dont have a lot of compassion or love when their wives are hurting, tired and need some appreciation, love and respect. At least my husband, i swear i could just move away for a few months i am about to have a nervous breakdown! Anyway, I dont know what to do about men. They suck right now... mainly cause i had a bad day lol!
