Welcome to Gaia! ::

3nodding Preggo rage. It's caused by the hormones. I have yet to talk to a woman who has ever been pregnant that didn't get it from time to time.

The last time my mother was pregnant, she would have all the men at work tell her "yes dear," to anything she asked and it would promptly get done. One of the single guys asked WTH that was about and they simply said, "You give a pregnant woman what she wants and that's all there is to it." Because they know what happens when you irk a pregnant woman and the hormones get going.

Fear the preggo rage. Heh.

All I could do was let it run its course and then when it was over apologize like there was no tomorrow. I couldn't control it when it was happening and when I was in the moment, my anger would seem justified. When I'd calm down awhile later, I'd realize I flew off the handle for nothing. And then I'd apologize and be extra sweet and have to reassure my hubby that someday I'd have stable normal hormones again and I'd have some control over it.

And in my case, I wanted to be pregnant, we tried for 7 months before it happened. Pregnancy is hard on the body whether it's wanted or not.

It wasn't just a little rage which I guess is why it confused me..

I didn't want to be touched by him at all, held, or anything.

On TOP of the dumbest things pissing me off. I'd ask for hot dogs for dinner and he'd suggest chicken and it was like he told me he needed me to use a fork to cut off my foot or the world was going to end or something.

xd

Glad to know I wasn't alone though.

You must be excited!

Have you picked a name??

I hated the pregnancy hormones. I'd cry or get angry over the stupidest things, and KNOW I was being stupid... but there was nothing I could do to control how I felt.

We'd had a friend coming over practically every day, and one day I told my husband, "NO! He can NOT come over today!"

I eavesdropped on the conversation when he called his friend and said, "Well, I guess we have to cancel today. Christie's just being... well... just being pregnant."

LOL.

And I wanted pickles SO badly that I considered breaking my pickle jar to get them out... I hadn't been able to open it for a month. Hubby was out to sea on the submarine, so I called some of his friends. One got the jar open, hands it to me, and I grabbed a pickle and took one bite... and threw it away.

They stared at me like I was nuts.

I like both your name options Ritza! We still haven't picked one yet. I have a feeling we'll findsomething we both like at the very last minute!

See I am the exact opposite. I have about a million girls names I love but I can't seem to find any boys names. sweatdrop

Yay for my ultrasound in an hour! I am so excited!!

Edit: The appt went well. Got some really cute shots of the little guy even though he was trying to hide the whole time. I did get my referal to a CNM who will take me in and allow me to VBAC. The only bit of bad news we got was he is still breech. If he doesn't turn then no VBAC for me. As soon as I get the u/s pictures scanned in I'll put some up!
