Pregnancy hormones are so weird!

I started crying because I was craving a chicken sandwich and fries but it was 11 pm and the place was closed. I am totally not that kind of person normally, these hormones are crazy lol! Please tell me about your pregnancy meltdowns so I don't feel so silly!

I had a complete meltdown because I was tired. I was bawling uncontrollably to my mom while she just held herself back from laughing at me. when I got myself calmed down I thought of how I was acting like a two year old who was so tired she couldn't go to sleep....then I started bawling again thinking someday soon I'll have a baby that will do that. Hahaha.

I almost cried because my mom cleaned my kitchen table with the dish sponge after I had just told her to use a paper towel and NOT the sponge!  I'm a germaphobe when pregnant.  Protective mommy instincts kicked in about that dirty sponge.

I melted down at my mothers house when my husband called and said he couldn't get out of work 10 minutes early so he could be on time for my ultrasound on Monday. I cried like a baby, how it wasn't fair and that I made the appointment at the time I did FOR HIM.  The thing is, he still made it to the ultrasound with no problem.  I simply asked the doctor if we could delay it 5 minutes because my husband was on his way, and they said it wasn't a big deal, that we'd wait for him.  My mom just laughed (she was with me) and said "Aren't pregnancy hormones awful?".

I cried the other day b.c my husband wanted to go ice skating and play hockey for an hr with his friends and I didn't want him to leave me home alone. But I wasn't going to be alone, my mom and her SO we're on their way over to my house to spend the afternoon. I balled so bad like a baby that he cancelled his plans to stay home with me. I felt so bad

It's not really silly but I was taking a shower and was singing a love song and I stayed to think about my husband and how much I loved him. Then I started to think about what would happen if I lost him (even though in my mind I was yelling to stop) and before I knew it,  I was uncontrollably bawling while drying myself.

My husband took me out shopping in first trimester because he said he wanted me to buy some clothes for the bump and some to grow into, to be prepared. I already hate hate hate shopping, but I agreed to go. But it was a disaster and I hated everything I tried on and ended up not buying anything and just started crying. And I cried for four hours. Inconsolably. He never suggested shopping again haha. Poor fellow. That was the worst one. There were a few other occassions but they were totally random without any particular trigger. They all ended by about 14 weeks thank goodness.

I'm getting worse the further the pregnancy goes. Hours and days of uncontrollable sobbing. Its insane. Im literally making myself crazy over stuff thats rubbish. Like last night I wanted an ice cream. A specific one. Went to the one store thats open past 9 and they dont sell it anymore. Balled for the rest of the night and woke up this morning still crying.

I cried almost to point of hyperventilating bc I didn't like how a TV show ended.
And I constantly question my relationship with every member of my family after every interaction. I convince myself I'm better off without them then cry over fear of being alone. It's a ridiculous cycle.

I had pretty much lost my sex drive for a few months.  One afternoon while my daughter was napping it suddenly came back. My husband works overnights so he was sleeping. I went in our room and woke him up. We were really getting into it when suddenly out bedroom door flew open and our 3 year old burst in. She started screaming "Get off my mommy. Stop hitting my mommy. You can't do that my mommy is pretty." My husband got up and took her in the living room to watch cartoons because I burst out crying. I was so frustrated I wanted to have sex so bad and it wasn't fair. Lol then I started crying more because I felt like a bad mom for being so mad at my toddler and then started to freak out that this could be her first real memory as an adult. I cried for an hour and half in our bedroom.
