My friend has wanted to have a child for years. Now she's within about 7 weeks of her due date. Suddenly she's angry, angry, angry. She picked a huge fight with me. I'm really vexed with her about it. Any advice how to minimize damage to the friendship? (I don't have children which is possibly contributing to her anger).

Be very easy with her, I have had two babies and can tell you I was a very mean and angry pregnant woman. (Normally I am as nice as can be) My mother has always said she would have had 10 babies if she didnt have to be pregnant with them, I feel the exact same way.
She has 7 weeks left and at this point I am sure everything is sore, the baby is kicking hard, and she is just plain sick and tired of being pregnant. She wants the baby OUT!
My only advice is to put your thick skin on and be a good friend and sounding board for her. She wont be like this for much longer, I promise.

Its her hormones and for the most part can be uncontrollable. Last night I was just angry for no reason. But I couldnt help it. So just deal with it for now. Try to be understanding with her. It is very hard for her and miserable. I told my husband last night that I was just so confused and miserable because I feel like this and dont want to, but cant help it. He is understanding with me. SOme control it better than others.

Well what i would do is give her some leeway i mean you haven't carried a baby before so you don't know how she is feeling right now just keep your distance when she is angry and be there for her when she needs you to be.

Be as nice as you possibly can. Give her some space. It's definitely the hormones talking. I was a crazy b*tch on wheels when I was pregnant. Good luck.

right now she is just ready to have the baby . her hormones are raging and she is anxious to have it . just be there for her and help her any which way you can .Just let her know over an icecream maybe ,how you feel and see what she has to say. maybe something else is bugging her.

believe me just let it be, i have 2 kids and i remember those days. anything and everything pissed me off. its just the hormones and the anxity of the waiting. you know its alot of stress when you have to think about what will happen and where will it happen and how it will happen, she means no harm. just be there for her and she will thank you in the end. :)
