Is anyone else feeling overwhelmed/emotional easily?

Question

Just wondering if anyone has felt an increase in being overwhelmed. I've also cried way more over the smallest things. I don't feel like myself anymore. Anyone else experience heightened mood swings/tears/being overwhelmed? Anything that helps?

Answer

Girl. That has literally been me all day. I have been cleaning the house to prepare for my mom to visit, washing/folding/putting away clothes of our toddler, washing all the bedding, vacuuming etc at 34 weeks with major sciatica pain. I feel like I am over emotional and about to explode at my husband for not helping or even emotionally supporting me when I say I need it. He doesn’t think I’m serious. I have snapped at my toddler a few times today because I was hoping my husband would wrangle him as I am doing all this stuff... instead he is on his phone and watching football not paying attention. Let alone, I started to pack my hospital bag and cried putting in stuff and my sleep has been minimal. I just want to cry all freaking day with how overwhelmed, lack of physical ability and exhaustion I have.

Answer

Yes!!! I keep telling my husband I’m doing the best I can! Because he just doesn’t understand my emotions and moodiness. It’s been some hard weeks!

Answer

Answer

Yes!! I’m 35W 6D, and have been really emotional, mood swings, and extremely tired since 30W.  It’s up and down, and not like me at all.  Definitely the hormones!

Answer

The last couple of days have been rough, for sure. My cat threw up on my bed this morning at 7 when I'd really been hoping to sleep in. I cried. COVID has also recently gotten much worse where I live, and I'm coming to terms with the fact that my parents and siblings probably won't be able to meet and hold my baby (the only one I'll ever have) right away. That's the long answer. Lol. The short one is yeah, completely overwhelming! This is a tough few weeks even in the best of times and we're doing it in a pandemic situation. Hang in there! ❤️
