Hey all, wakened this morn and OMG Im in such bad form, wakened nearly in tears, for no reason, feel like I could cry at a drop of a hat. Am tired even though no reason to be apart from the obvious, uncomfy etc etc Just in bad form, haven't had this or been like this at all through pregnancy. Do you think its hormones now????

Oh I hear you!!!! Am not in the best form myself today. Didn't get a wink of sleep last night, what with baby kicking all night, cramps in my legs and sore back. I think it's all just part and parcel of being pregnant. I am so tired that i could cry, though that's probably down to hormones as well, and could literally put my head down at my desk and go to sleep. Don't get any sympathy in work or a break to even have a rest. Roll on 5pm. Hope your day gets better xx

I do cry at the drop of a hat and have done on and off too through the whole pregnancy! It's very weird as I am not usually an emotional person. But god yes there have been some days where I am a bit of a mess!! I remember one day meeting my dad for lunch and trying to tell him I wasn't in good form and trying my best not to cry!! And one day recently when I was on my own at home, I got into mad hysterical laughter at something very silly and then a few minutes later burst into tears watching one of those fetal developmental videos. Madness! Apparently it doesn't necessarily pass after baby is born either, as you're still so full of hormones. Tiredness hugely plays a part as well.

O god what to look forward to
Was knackered at work earlier, its gone now got a second wind I suppose, but I sure cant wait for bed tonight!!!

Ah God, I feel like that on random days myself and I can't blame pregnancy but I am not a great sleeper and since coming off the pill, hormones have been a bit mental. If I wanna cry, I just do it. I just go with the flow. Hormones and lack of sleep turn me into the anti-Christ!!

Mind yourself though and be kind to yourself.
