short fuse

Hi ladies. I’m now 35+5 weeks pregnant, and I’ve noticed that over the last few days I’ve been a bit more irritable than usual. Like, a very short fuse. Wonder if more ladies here are experiencing this?

Love,
Syvia

    Oooh welcome to the club!!! I'm really feeling it too! I don't know what I'm suffering from... lovely hormone balance! But I'm also irritated by so many things... all those extra kilos, water retention, and trouble sleeping. Now I'm also dealing with heartburn. Just not being able to bend over anymore and basically just doing your own thing. I'm really bummed about that. Not being able to do what I used to do... And then I'm like... you can come on over from me!!

    So I'll just vent my spleen here from now on, haha....

    But what exactly is irritating you?

    Ugh, I get irritated by these little stupid things. Like if something doesn't go right, I can totally lose my cool hihi. And yeah, all those extra kilos and having to pee so often at night.

    Oh yes, peeing!!! I forgot about that. What a drama that is! I really don't go anywhere where I can't find a toilet.... So better stay at home as much as possible! Do you do that too?

    Hahaha yeah, because I can really pee all day long I just went and 10 minutes later it feels like I have to go again.

    Zoooo relatable, hihi It's like it's not hard enough already to get comfortable with that big belly, fall asleep, and stay asleep... And then you have to get up 96 times a night to go to the toilet! And then the cycle starts all over again.. -__- No wonder we're a bit grumpier, right??

    And I'm really exhausted now because I just can't sleep... I haven't closed my eyes all night... sigh!

    feel with you!!

    Slept for 2 hours in 30 hours... If I have another awful night after tonight, I'll have to sleep in the hospital tomorrow. Then I'll get an injection. Because I've been struggling with sleep problems for 2.5 months now. And because of that, I'm very irritable.

    Not so nice to be in the hospital, but it's good that they're helping you! They're probably going to induce me earlier for the same reason... they don't want me to go into labor completely exhausted. I'll hear the exact plans on Tuesday!

    That's so sorry to hear, Lenita Things are going well with sleeping here. *knock on wood* But I hope you get better soon so you don't have to stay in the hospital. Let me know how it's going?

    Love, Sylvia

    I'm feeling pretty good and fit today. Had a nice dinner out with my husband Yesterday I was really tired and slept a lot. I hope you can get some sleep tonight, girl. xx

    As it looks now... No, I'll be having another late night tonight

    Oh, that's great that you got to get out for a bit
