Listen very closely:
Don't walk to loud
don't beathe too loud
don't snore
don't smack your lips when you chew
don't talk to much
do you see the pattern?

The only way a pregnant woman's mood swings could be 'destroying a relationship' is if you are actually taking the mood swings personally and fighting with her instead of trying to empathise with the fact that she is subject to very powerful hormonal changes justnow, and offering her the support she needs from a partner.

not much you can do but be there for her. i know it gets crazy but just try to remember it's not her fault. she has no control over what's happening to her body anymore. she has tons of hormones surging through her body and many other physical things going on. just be as supportive as you can no matter how hard it is. you won't lose her. if she's "pushing" you away then just give her a little space while still letting her know you love her. try cleaning up the house if you don't already, maybe do a chore that she hasn't been able to do or has been complaining about doing, take the girls to the park or mall and give her some alone time. maybe try getting a sitter and taking her out to dinner and/or a movie if she's past the morning sickness part. good luck dear!

I am 9 months pregnant, so I may be able to help you here. Do NOT under any circumstances, tell her it is just her hormones. DO NOT fight with her or tell her she is being unreasonable (or hormonal), even when she is. Just nod understandingly and do whatever she asks. Trust me, it will pass quickly and she will feel sooo grateful to you for your understanding, that she may be willing to make it up to you...in whatever way you want. Also, do not pick a fight with her, do not get angry at her(or at least, do not show her your frustrations, hers are much bigger) and let her boss you around for a while. She's not doing it on purpose and about 97% of it is hormones, the other 3 % is a mixture of frustrations and various other emotions, because deep down she knows that these hormones are taking over and there's nothing she can do to stop it. Just be as wonderful as you know how to be....maybe surprise her with flowers or cook dinner or do the dishes one night, just something small to show her you still love her.

when women are pregnant, some of us get really snappy. all you really have to do is breath 2 loudly, walk in a room, or say hello. it is nothing you do, or did. our bodies are changing everyday during pregnancy. we can not help our extreem mood changes. im not saying that it is right, or you should have to run and hide, just try to understand. i know it is hard when you men get yelled at for the simpleist things like asking if she wants to go see/rent a movie. i have actually yelled at my my man for peeing to loudly. everything bothers us. maby not during every pregnancy, or all thr out the entire pregnancy, but just try to be patient. it will pass. dont try to make jokes when she is snappy, or upset. just get her when she is in a fairly decent mood, and tell her you dont understand what she wants you to do half the time. she might not even realize she is doing it. walk in the other room if you have to, go start dinner, give the kids their baths, but the worst thing you can possibly do is tell her she is ruining the relationship. that will make her feel worse. let her have her fits, when it is over, talk to her normal, like you would any other time. sorry you are going thru that. best of luck to you.

I know its hard but hang in there. Talk to her...I mean talk not yell or point fingers. She might (haha WILL) take offense if you say YOU DO THIS AND THAT. Tell her, I am feeling like _____. I know that worked for my boyfriend and I while I was pregnant and at the end I was terribly moody until recently. Good luck and congrats to you for being a man and asking and trying to figure this out. There are quite a few who wouldn't even bother.

Unfortunately, mood swings are a part of pregnancy. I had them really bad for the first few months. I am now 18.5 weeks and no longer have them. Give her time to herself, things will get better!

I don't think there is any way for you to understand her mood swings. I don't even think we (pregnant women) understand our mood swings. Just be very patient and do little things for her. When she starts getting really cranky just get out of her way. Good luck.

I know where she is coming from.
We get mad soo easily like in general IDK I'm not pregnant. I think I am. But not sure.
But I know I get mad so easily. You have to be patient and try not to fight her on things. If she starts b*tching then just let her and know that it will pass in time. If she wants a little space..then give it to her. Maybe she doesnt want to be snuggled with or kissed. I mean she is going throw a lot of changes and it might not have happened the last two times. But every pregnancy is different.
good luck and dont give up

She's maybe feeling Premenstrual Syndrome: PMS is a disorder characterized by a set of hormonal changes that trigger disruptive symptoms.

give her some space,
pregnancy is difficult and she should come back to her senses after the baby comes
but until then, focus on the kids and pleasing them
and try and help out around the house
if she yells at you about something email us and we will help you fix it.
