Irritability
Is anyone else extra irritable at the moment? I’m 35+3 and everything is bothering me recently. I feel so bad for my partner because I keep snapping at him for almost no reason at all. I don’t know if it’s just hormones, tiredness, fear/anxiety that in a few weeks I’ll have a newborn, i honestly don’t know but I just feel so bad for my partner, I know he’s trying his best 😩😢

100% I know I’m being horrible a lot of the time but I can’t help it. I’ve even snapped at my 4 year old a few times and felt awful about it 🙈 let’s hope it stops when baby’s here but I suspect the tiredness will take over that at that point to make me ratty again. X
I am the exact same gestation and have noticed that my irritability has shot up, and I’m a lot more snappy, but I’m a lot more tired and uncomfortable

It’s a horrid feeling but very normal - I had it with my first and I’m having it on certain days now, you’re probably feeling irritable anyways due to being uncomfortable etc and then it’s exacerbated by tiny things! When I’m in a better mood I try to talk it through with my husband and explain and we often have a giggle about it so I just take those opportunities when I can!
