Am I allowed to be irritable and nitm?

I’m 39 weeks running after a toddler. I don’t have the capacity or patience to be the normal bubbly/helpful person people are used too. I feel like everyone around me is expecting me to be normal and ‘carry on’ because it’s my second pregnancy. If anything, it’s harder this time around. I’m literally falling apart inside trying to sort out everything and prepare and I have to stay strong for my toddler. I even got called lazy by my mum because I was lying down on the sofa whilst my toddler played and watched tv! I’m not in the mood, I don’t want to be asked 29 times a day ‘are you okay’ when I’m clearly not. Just feeling rubbish

Yep this is me Snapping at my hubby … I’m also struggling with self esteem which is absolutely not me at all … feels like I’m 12 years old again feeling ugly and awkward Crying out of no where about it 🤷🏾‍♀️ Did not have this when I was pregnant with my toddler

Yes, my fiancé is so understanding and helpful but I an sick of being asked ‘are you okay’ 100 times and obviously not feeling very okay 😂 the final weeks are so hard when you already have a little one to care for - I relate!! X
