Mood Swings!

[mum's the word]

I know mood swings are very common during pregnancy, I remember them only too well from my last 2 pregnancies (think I upset a few people, oops!). This time though, the swings are far more extreme, from blissfully content and happy to a raving lunatic! Maybe it's because I'm busier, and with the school hols and constant rain it's all a bit claustrophobic, I just worry about my 1 year old he looks so confused when I go off on one, then I feel so guilty I cuddle him and play with him to try and make up for it. My 9 year old just escapes to his room or to a friend's house. Anybody else having extreme changes of mood like this?!

ooh yes i am really horrid and snappy with my DH and i feel so guilty. I KNOW when i'm doing it but i just cant stop

Bless him, only after reading one of my boks did he realise its a normal symptom of pregnancy and has stopped worried that I am going off him

Yep ive been there but luckily its only my OH who suffers. Maybe you could sit down with your little one and explain or when you feel like you are going to explode take a walk?
