growth spurts

[keli]

Hello there ladies hope all is well with you all.

Was just wondering do you feel alot more hormonal when going through a growth spurt?.. believe i'm due one now and feeling very argumentative (sp) at the moment. OH is getting it bad!! xx

I think perhaps we do. I usually get worried about new aches and pains and I think that my worries are worse than they usually would be because your hormones are all over the place. Saying that though, I wouldn't say I am or have been overly hormonal throughout this pregnancy really.

Matt may say different LOL

haha I know when the hormones are flowing as I get mental you get a huge growth spurt at 16 weeks for the next 3 weeks I think

I was on top of the world yesterday bouncing of the wall like a demented puppy. Today i was like a bear with a sour head i felt very agitated and annoyed about everything. I was very active yesterday today i felt like lying down and having a sleep ,.Felt very very stressed i swear my blood pressure was off the chart . I actully turned on my Enya cd lay on the floor and asked the kids at work to do the same. They had been driving me crazy all day ( XMAS FEEVER) We all practiced sinking in to the floor and letting the music wash over you breathing in and out slow and deep. VERY COMICAL i know but at the time it kept me sane. The children found it amusing so it worked and i did help me calm down

I'm getting the hormonal thing. Especially today. I've cried so much.
My mum works in a school and she asked me to go in and watch the schools xmas play to help fill the hall. I agreed. I cried when i saw the xmas tree. I cried when they played a cd of xmas songs, before the xmas show even started.
The show was hidieous really (tho the poor kids didn't know that), yet i cried and cried. And i got emotional when afterwards someone asked if i wanted sugar in my tea.

Xmas shopping, every cute thing made my eyes fill up. In fact everything did. Amusing for everyone else, distressing for my make-up and contact lenses!

The last few weeks have been so emotional for me. I cry every day at least. Usually at moms when i go to pick my son up. It can be cos I had a bad day at work, cos I left my iron at my sisters, cos I haven't written my Xmas cards yet......you name it and away I go. Poor Tim wonders what the hell is going on. I keep telling him its just cos I'm pregnant but the poor little sod is a real worrier. Mental note....do not cry in front of TIm.

I only hope I don't get PND again as if I do my son will leave home!!

Agree with Tilly about the 16-19 weeks thing, although I can be emotional pretty much any time I was diabolical then.

I had a great day two days ago after my mammoth 14-hour sleep, but then was RAAAAAAAAA yesterday all day and really miserable. I didn't even know why!

Feel a bit better today. Hormones are funny!

I notice I feel knackered when bubs is having a growth spurt, normally have heaps of energy but this week (week 26) I can barely drag my ass out of bed in the morning!

Oh and I have been perstering OH for sex a lot as well, which according to my best friend (nurse) is a sign it is a boy as boy babies have a testosterone surge in week 26
