Irritated

I definitely understand how you feel. With this being my second time, I’m definitely struggling in the patience’s department with my oldest. It’s definitely a struggle.

@Chayla how old is your oldest? My daughter is almost 2 and the patience i have with her and my partner is unbelievable and worst when he makes her cry and im trying to nest and get housework done 😭 it’s hard having to clean and do things with a big belly and cleaning up after my toddler I’m tired.

She’ll be 2 in December. It’s definitely a struggle when it comes to trying to maneuver with a bump the size of a watermelon and then having to take care of a toddler and all the household chores, it’s both mentally and physically draining. My husband didn’t fully grasp the concept of everything I deal with when he’s at work until I had sat him down and described to him step by step just how everything was making me feel. He never really helps with the oldest after he got home from work until I sat him down. Now, he automatically takes over with her so that I can have a little less on my plate but she doesn’t make that any easier. She’s very much a momma’s girl and a velcro kid.

@Chayla wow we’re literally on the same boat it’s insane my heart goes out to you cause it’s definitely not easy. It makes me nervous having another one and makes me wonder how it’s going to be when they are both here. Goodluck to you momma my due date is Aug 20 and i feel like it’s so close yet so far..

Yeah I’m sure there are plenty of mommas who feel how we do. Couple probably fill a whole cruise ship if I’m being honest. I’m due on the 13th and I was told that I wouldn’t be able to be induced until my due date due to the L&D department being full or my OB is unavailable. I made it to 40 weeks with my first and was miserable so I was trying very hard to not have to do it again this go around. I will say I definitely think it’ll be a huge adjustment going from 1 to 2 kids. Don’t hide the way you feel afterwards if any negative feelings or thoughts start coming to the surface.

I'm currently on pregnancy #3 and I don't remember being this irritable, cranky & having no patience. I'm also taking care of an almost 3 year old & 16 month old and pregnancy always destroys my sleep......so that can definitely be contributing to it🙃 I can't wait to have a newborn, sleep better(lmao yes I'll sleep better with a newborn) & not be pregnant anymore🙌

Yes omg I feel so bad I have 0 patience for my toddler rn and I’m a single mom I just feel like I have rage with every little thing this pregnancy has been legit horrible back is hurting nauseous and can barely breathe !! Over it 36+5
