Okay preggie hormones, here we go. I had an EXPLOSION yesterday. We were in the car, driving to swim at a friends house and I was in stop and go traffic on I-35 (per usual) and I lost it. I whipped the car around and drove back home. We were on the road for an hour in what should have been a 25 minute drive and I LOST MY MIND!! I was so livid…red faced, breathing fire. I get home and tear into Liz. She is confused and hurt and unsure of what to do and I am screaming at the top of my lungs. What was I upset about….nothing really, but I was beyond reason and beyond upset. WHOA! That was intense for me and I was the one doing it. I eventually calmed down a little and we went to the movies. We saw Crazy Stupid Love and it was really cute.
My poor wife. I cannot believe I acted like such a crazy, raged, lunatic. We have been together for 9 years now and we hardly ever fight. This was not even a fight, it was just me yelling at her for no good reason. (side note- sorry baby, you are amazing and wonderful and beautiful and I love you so much! I don’t know who was yelling at you yesterday, but I will kick her butt!!!!)
Neways..emotions sometimes get overwhelming for me in my preggie state. It is not only anger, I have also been intensely sad for a few hours and happy as all get out. It is quite strange. In the moment, it is like a roller coaster and you cannot filter or think straight, just pouring of emotion.
On another note, I think I have a craving: Broccoli cheese soup. Yup, this lactose intolerant girl cannot get enough! I love it!! I think Liz is going to make me some homemade so I can quit stalking restaurants for their soup. She also made a delicious roast with parsnip mashed potatoes and Yorkshire pudding with gravy last night….yum. Can you tell I am preggie and food is always on my mind:)
Here is to hoping for calmer mood swings….

Oh man, hormones. Sounds like that was an intense (and scary) time for you. I hope for your sake AND Liz's that you're a one explosion kinda preggo lady :)
ReplyDeleteI'm right at the stage you are, and my moods are crazed, as well. I haven't had a rage yet, but I have moments of feeling intensely (illogically) critical of my partner--and we usually never fight, either.
