Extremely Emotional!

I have had the worst evening. Had a major argument with my sister, mum and dad :( My sister and I haven't been seeing eye to eye for the past month and things have been quite strained but tonight I just flipped! My parents intervined on the phone and I ended up arguing with them, got extremely upset and cried for about 2 hours! It wasn't just a sniffle either it was full blown hysterical crying to the point where I could barely breathe or speak! Have not cried like that for years and not without good reason...... I feel like a woman possessed. Still upset now and welling up whilst typing this.... is anyone else suffering like me???? xxx

Have you had a scan yet? I am hoping I will calm down if that goes ok. I got my date thru today, for 6th August. Burst into tears tho as we are away then. We had told midwife and she made note so we wouldn't get appt then. Have had to ring up and cancel. They wouldn't give me new appt over phone so have to wait for the post AGAIN! I hoped I would have it before we went but I don't think that will happen now :( I feel sick most of the time, which you'd think would convince me Im def preg and its all ok, but no, I am sooo paranoid! BTW I think most people feel like punching their bosses at some point, so thats perfectly normal! ;-D
My 12 week scan is on the 10th August so just over a week away. I have had 2 scans already though, one at 8 weeks and one at 10 as I had a m/c last year and I had some bleeding at 8 weeks. I know what you mean though as the 12 week scan is the important one, everything feels so real! Oh no, I hope you get your date through soon. Why wont they just let you book on the phone, thats a total pain. I am sure they do these things to try our patience even more!
Thanks Nellie, I am sure I will feel better after my scan and once I have my picture so I can tell everyone. Cant wait to make it all official xx

I was exactly the same till I had my first scan. I tried to put credit in my phone and couldn't, so I ended up hanging up on the woman and sobbing. I didn't argue with family, but I did argue with OH a lot. (Still do - but not as much). I felt heaps better once I saw my baby on that monitor wriggling around. Hope it gets better babe

Thanks for that hun, I feel so much better that I am not the only one.... I actually felt myself welling up reading it! I keep getting upset and snappy with people, especially at work. One minute I am fine the next minute I want to punch my boss in the head and I have never been violent in my life LOL. I know what you mean about the scared thing, I am petrified something will go wrong. Feel like pinching myself most days to make sure I am not dreaming xxx

I don't know if this helps your situation but I am at the same stage as you and my emotions are ALL over the place. I'm ratty one minute, the next Im trying not to cry. And its the most stupid things that set me off. So today I cried at Surf's Up, lol. Im a lunatic! So I guess if absolutely nothing can set me off your bound to go nuts when you have a genuine reason. I think some of it is hormones and some of it is fear. I am so happy to be preg, but scared something will go wrong or I won't cope and I think things like that hide behind other things (if that makes sense) so we over react. Be patient with yourself, and ask others to be patient with you if you over react. I said this to my OH and he has been much better since (well, he keeps his mouth shut anyway LOL!) XXX

Hi ladies. No dont live with my sister she lives with my parents. Its an argument over nothing really that started a couple of months ago because my sister is so immature. She is 24 but doesn't act her age. She managed to get my parents involved and it just escalated to the point where all 3 of us were arguing. Spoke to my Mum today and its sorted between us. My Mum is going to speak to my sister and tell her to sort things out. Its just very hurtful as normally my sister and I have a fantastic relationship. We talk everyday and go out together all the time. Just dont understand why she is acting this way at a time when i need her the most xx

Ah bless you x Have a good cry and get it out of your system then call your Mum tomorrow and say sorry. It's probably just your hormones and I'm sure your parents will understand. They might be able to help you smooth things over with your sister too. Just because she's your sister doesn't mean you have to be best friends. I don't have a really close relationship with my sister (we're sooo different) but we get by. Good luck xx
