Thank you lady's that makes me feel so much better that I'm not the only one that feels this way this is my second baby and with my daughter I didn't feel this way. And it makes me feel crazy cause every little thing upsets me my boyfriend is still friends with his ex and I was fine with that before I was pregnant and now it bothers me to no end and I get angry at him when he goes to hang out with her. Or when my dog barks or just anything really I feel like balling when that happens I don't understand why this happens while pregnant. I'm very glad that I found this site cause it sure does help alot. Thank you lady's for all the advice. I am very great full for all your advice!

I'm so bipolar ! I get so happy when I know my fiance is getting off work soon. I hug and kiss him, and ask him how his night went. Then the littlest thing makes me mad, not even a few minutes later . Then after that, I cry because I feel bad. Then I'm happy again. So I know what you mean.

That actually does happen. Normally not in amounts large enough to trigger anything but you do get hormones from your baby once they start producing them!
Might just be sensitive to testosterone lol

Yeah...I am that way too sometimes.
I have a belief (not scientific - just my personal theory)  it has got to be my little man's testosterone.  I have wondered if the baby's hormones can cross back to me.

My dear hubby says "You are manic-aggressive, not manic-depressive. Lol

I just trust this too will pass, and I try to stay positive.

I did find a list of 31 things to do when having a bad day.  Printed it off of pinterest and use it whenever needed!

Good luck to all who also struggle!

Yup. I'm short tempered and all around emotional when pregnant, too. I'm yelling at my husband and dog one minute, crying the next, then laughing. It's nuts.

Just wait. Post partum hormones are even worse!

I'm 9 weeks and have become the "B" word myself. It's hormones and it gets better in 2nd trimester, then awful again in 3rd. My experience at least. My 4th pregnancy.

Don't worry, as long as your eating good sleeping good and trying to handle your emotions, it will pass...I'm on my third pregnancy and it's natural to be emotional you will have ups and downs but after your around 20 weeks you should start to feel better
