Hormone balance

I’m 3 months pp and have them so bad. I swear sometimes I’m just sitting there like 😒 just annoyed for no reason 😂 I just try to remind myself that my hormones are wacky so to just take a chill pill.

@Fel I feel like everything makes me mad. I thought my hormones would have started settling by now. I feel so bad about it. And I know sometimes that I shouldn’t be mad, but still end up angry

It only happens around my cycle. I’m 2 years post pregnancy

Welcome to motherhood! Hahaha I told my own mom, I feel like I’m yelling at the kids all the time, I don’t want to be that mom. She told me she felt the same way, and upon reflection, I don’t remember my childhood that way at all. Ms. Rachel taught us to “stop and breathe slowly, in and out” I use this to calm my son, but I’ve also used it for myself before I react and I’ve told my husband too, now I see my son actively doing this, it is inspiring. Sometimes you might just need a different perspective. I also highly suggest therapy if you need an outlet! Or just find another mom friend to bond with over all these little irritating things. I’ve had to tell my husband I needed a break and go lay down and nap, or take a hot bath. You can’t do it all, allow yourself some grace and rest.
