i'm so cranky

I am so freaking cranky and annoyed and bored out of my mind. I've been on maternity leave for almost 3 weeks now (cause baby is late i have nothing to do). My sister says she feels bad for my husband because i'm always yelling at him. but i tried to explain to her that in marriage it goes both ways, they only see me flip out cause i'm not afraid to in public ahhaha.

My mother literally pins me down to touch my belly and gets so peterped if I dont let her touch my belly for more than 30 seconds (her first blood grandchild has made her psycho) - IM SICK OF IT
Everyone thinks i'm evil cause i am snapping at everyone - IM SICK OF IT
I feel so hungry at times but have no room to eat - IM SICK OF IT
The hearburn, the bh, the leg cramps, the constipation, the sore boobs, etc -IM SICK OF IT

Am I the only one fuming for no friggin reason????? please tell me i'm not alone!

I'm just sick of dropping things!!!  It almost feels like I don't have any fingers.  My hands are the only place that I've got fluid retention - and it's all in the finger joints so my sense of sensation is all skew-whiff, my fingers lock at the joints in a fist so I look like I'm about to punch everyone, but it's just my fingers locking up.

I'm pretty lucky with DH, I get a snap out and he just smiles and touches me gently and says "not long to go now baby" then we both crack up laughing.  It's a great tension breaker.

I wonder if your mother would appreciate a bit of hair, buttock or boob fondling in return for her belly touching?  Now that's a funny thought....

Awwww......I'm sorry you've been feeling this way!!

I've been a bit of a b*itch to my husband this last month as well....and very weepy when we argue (which is usually about stupid stuff).  Physically, I'm feeling pretty good, even despite having a 3 year old to chase after - it's the mood swings that are the most bothersome.  It doesn't help that DS has been extra clingy to me lately (probably because he senses, on some level, that his life is about to change) and has been waking up in the middle of the night again, interrupting my much-needed sleep!

As for a snapping out story.....I don't really have one of my own, but a friend told me about how when his wife was pregnant, she asked him to go to McDonald's to get her a strawberry shake.  He was talking to her on his cell when he was going through the drive through, and when she heard the McDonald's employee tell her husband that they were out of strawberry shakes, she was like "GIVE HIM THE PHONE" - and she proceeded to yell at the poor teenage kid, blast him for not being able to provide the shake.  Crazy, huh? ;-)
