hi ladies,

I'm 19 weeks today, and have a 10 month old lil girl!!!! So obviously I get a little tired, which isn't really the problem bacause my little girl is in a good routine: bedtime 8pm, wakes up 8 am!

But the real big problem for me is my mood swings! I can get so annoyed with my boyfriend over the smallest and biggest things. Then when I try to resolve the problem, I always end up crying my eyes out or getting really really angry- imagining a raging bull and ur almost there.

I'm trying my best, but feel completely out of control, and hate the excuse that its just my hormones. Do any of you also feel this way? Felt this way? How did/ do you deal with it? Because I'm fed up with myself for not been able to control them, so God knows how my fella feels about me at times! LOL

Hi, I'm 18 weeks preg and have a 11 month old girl and like you, I also get tired. With me its the tiredness that makes me irritable. U know as your in the same position - bein preg with a pre toddler is hard work and you barely get a moment to yourself to relax. Even after my lo is in bed at 7pm, im cookin tea, makin her puddings for the next day, cleaning & tidying. Then if ive any energy left i force myself to have a quick bath, wash my hair etc but by 11pm im exausted. I dont sleep great as i cant get comfy in bed so by mornin im still tired and moody!! then the slog of the day begins again!! and lets face it, lookin after a baby can be sooooooooooooooo repetitive and sometimes boring, same day in day out!!! thats what also makes me irritable - no free time to myself (as no one in 11 months has had my daughter whilst I have a break, not even for an hour!) bless my hubby, he is self employed so is at work 14 hours a day to keep our heads above water financially, so he doesnt have it easy either. Once the little ones get a little older perhaps our mood will change : ) you take care, dont be too hard on yourself xxx Vicky
