Hi every1!
I'm over 30 weeks pregnant and ive been feeling really down lately. The slightest, silly little thing makes me cry or feel like crying. Is this normal?
After the 1st 3 months, where i felt ill, tired, couldnt eat much etc ive been feeling great, happier than ever, so i cant understand why i'm feeling like this now :(

sorry, it's your hormones.. give it about 18 years and it'll get better ;o)

seriously, the last trimester is hard going. try to take it easy and pamper yourself. I cried at everything when I was pregnant, happy or sad!

Yeah thats how i feel, im so over emotional. 18 years, really? oh god lol i was hoping it would go away soon.
I have been pampering myself, having nice long relaxing baths and treating myself to some retail therapy to try and cheer myself up, helps for a while then i feel down again
shaunzy Some women who ain't pregnant are like that dont worry your be fine! {:) Bit of gas&air!
Question Author
lol
but of gas and air?? there speaks a man!!

shaunzy, it'll get better. pregnancy takes it out of you physically and emotionally. I think I slowed the tears (mostly at stuff on the news or on the TV) when my kids were about 18 months.. but it just shows you're a "feeling" person. I'm sure you'll be a great mum x
↑ bit!
Im a MAN Yeah! Made shaunzy Laugh "Mission Accomplished", have i upset you sara?
Question Author
Aww thanx :) I have always been a sensitive person i suppose but not as bad as i am now lol but like u say, its part of pregnancy. Nearly everything i watch on tv these days, u can garantee some part of it will make me cry lol its so annoying as i dont like to cry infront of people.

Oh is it normal to break wind a lot when your pregnant? i feel like my bum never stops burping ;/
not yet........... !
Question Author
U did make me laugh stompe, cheered me up a bit thanx ;)
Are you Waiting Then!lol
okay, I don't recall suffering in the wind department but that's they joy of pregnancy.. you never know what indignity is coming next!

maybe it's something you're eating?
I'm always waiting, stompe ;o)
Question Author
Yeah i was thinking that, as i'm eating a lot more fruit and veg than i used too, cereal too, which i didnt really eat before
Question Author
Ive just accidently discovered that u can rate your own answer, thats a bit stupid aint it lol
Didn't think you held grudges sara{:(

shaunzy Let Em Rip girl! blame the Dog! lol
Question Author
LOL well, aint got a dog so i'll blame the cat :)
Save the emotion by never getting married nor having children - single people without children live longer and are more carefree, from my experience.
I don't hold grudges, stompe.. it's you that keeps rattling on about it, not me.
