One minute im crying over a tv ad and next minute im snapping at my husband for nothing. He keeps asking whats wrong and i genuinely cant explain it. Is this what they call mood swings? why does it happen during pregnancy actually.
It means u can cry because the dog looked at u sadly and 5 min later fight someone over the last samosa. Hormones running the show yaar. Welcome to the club, its all normal.
I totally understand this. Those ups and downs are so confusing in the moment. Be kind to urself, its not u being difficult, its ur body working hard. It does settle. Lean on people who get it.
Basically its the surge of pregnancy hormones affecting ur emotions, my doc explained. Plus the body changes, lack of sleep and all the new worries add to it. So u feel happy, weepy, irritated all in a short time. Totally part of the process.
Oh I felt this so much. One minute I was crying at a tv ad, next minute laughing or snapping at my husband for nothing. Its the hormones changing fast plus tiredness. It made me feel crazy but its so normal trust me.
First of all whatever u are feeling is valid, dont let anyone make u feel dramatic. Mood swings are real and the hormones are no joke. It helped me to talk it out and rest more. If u ever feel very low or down for long though, do mention it to ur doctor.
