I am 6 months pregnant now, and the emotions are pooring down on me. Anything can set me off and it's getting irritating!
This afternoon I found out my husband who has been working nights for the past 2 weeks and was on call this weekend (he's an electrician) had to take a call this afternoon at 4:00pm. I thought it wasn't going to be until tonight...
Well I had just gotten done getting ready for us all (we have a 15 month old son) to go out and do something for the day when he told me. It was already 1:30pm, and I was so upset I could not stop crying! I know he has to work because we need the money and I'm a stay at home mom, but he has worked SO much this past week or two that it seems like we never see him. He was also gone all day yesterday, so I went to a birthday party with my son alone anyway, but I miss he help I get with my son when he's home, and just having him around. I am exhausted too, and I'm not the one working so many hours?
Cry me a river right?

Best thing you can do is just try to relax. I'm pregnant and cry constantly. My husband works 7 days a week and I hate it. I call in help from my mother. She takes my daughter one day a week so that I can clean, relax, or more often than not, make a special dinner for my husband and I to enjoy when he gets home. This helps alot. Call in friends and family to help out.

If I remember properly being pregnant was one of the most emotional times of my life. Give yourself a break - you have a life growing inside you and he or she is messing with your hormones and sapping your energy. The fact that you are rational about what your husband has to do for the family speaks well for your common sense and your ability to get past your disappointment. You may need a nap due to being overtired or you may need to just cry it out for a while. Either way, be kind to yourself and know that your husband loves you enough to do whatever he has to do for your family. Good luck!

OMG Girl
*BIG HUGS*
I remember my emotions running like crazy. (I just had my baby 8 weeks ago). Seriously try this... it worked for me so I hope it will work for you.
Buy some of the lavendar baby bath. When your son is asleep, go draw ya some good warm bath water, put the lavendar stuff in, and just lay there and relax. If ya gotta cry, let it out. When you get out of the tub and get all cozy, hopefully that will help relax you.
Hope things get better for ya dear *hugs*
