Had my first pregnancy meltdown last night

BostonMommy · Oct 14th, 2010, 11:32 AM

Even with this being a totally unplanned and very much unexpected pregnancy, I have not cried once since I got the BFP. Till last night.

Wednesdays is my day home with the kids and seriously by 7pm last night I was certifiable. Seriously on the phone begging hubby to get his little behind home and give me just 5 moments of peace and not have a whiney 5 year old who's "bored" and a frustrated 16 month old who is pissed off because he can't verbally express what he wants and gets frustrated with me for not telepathically knowing what he needs.

Girls - last night was the first time I stopped and was like "OMG how the hell am I going to handle a 3rd???".

Feeling better today though. Amazing how being back at work can make me feel human again. Some people are destined to be SAHM's and some are just not (me included)!!!

7 more months till that glass of wine!!!!!

i had my first nervous breakdown last night too... do you have any experience (from your first two) with panic attack/nervous breakdown affects on the developing baby? i want the baby so bad, i don't want to miscarriage and i'm terrified i screwed up it's little developing brain.

Awwww.. You are going to do just fine with 3

Glad you feel better today! I haven't really been too emotional, except I do notice myself crying over weird things.. not that i'm sad, I just have tears roll down my face! haha

Skinnydog - with my first two they were planned and I never had these "OMG" moments with them. I had the usual hormonal moments but I only had a 3 year old to focus on. Now having the two and knowing I'll be juggling 3 when we didn't really plan on it, it overwhelms me at times.

Hormones and I don't get along well. LOL. It's one of the reasons I don't do BCP's. The hormones make me a crazy lady!!!

well, that's good news... i can't imagine trying to balance the third coming...

i think a pregnancy massage sounds good for you too!

Girl, I think you are right!!!!!

It's sounding mighty nice right now. Heck, a trip to Starbucks with a book and no children sounds like Heaven. It's amazing what constitutes pampering to me these days. LOL...
