Hey everyone, I just have a quick couple of questions. I'm 31 weeks and the past couple of days I've been an emotional mess. Up until now, I've been fairly even keeled as far as emotions go, but lately... I'm falling apart at every little thing. I'm frustrated, tired of being pregnant, and as much as I love my daughter- I feel like I'm losing my ( Read more... )

Hi guys! I'm new to the comm, and my name is Alexa. I've been trying to do some research, but I'm not really finding too much information regarding bipolar disorder and pregnancy (outside of just medical statistics and such), and I was wondering if any of you (who are obviously comfortable with sharing) would be willing to talk about how their ( Read more... )

Okay ladies, what do you do when you're hormonal? I am pretty sure my husband was just reminding himself all day that it was the hormones, not me. But I feel terrible!

I'm having a terrible time with mood swings lately. I'm 27 weeks along today. It's so bad that I'm just screaming at my family for every little thing, I can tell it's starting to strain my marriage. We've been together for 14 years and we're just under 3 months away from our ten year wedding anniversary--and today I made him so mad he had to go out ( Read more... )

I have to try really hard to get him to smile though, by playing with him, making faces at him, etc. Sometimes he won't smile no matter how hard I try, though I can tell he likes it because his eyes get all big and he starts cooing and kicking his legs ( Read more... )

I'm 10weeks exactly today.

So lately all I've wanted to do is cry.
I cry when I get on LJ and read birth stories. I cry when I see pictures of newborns. I cry when I look at my first ultrasound pic of this baby, and when I read through my son's baby book.
I cried when my family got into a big fight and we almost moved out of my paresnt house WAY ( Read more... )

I'm a little late to do this, but oh well. Life is hectic with a newborn! I don't have a birth story written out yet, I'll get to it eventually ( Read more... )
