Ah, hormones.
I actually don't think I've been too bad with the change in hormones. I've had maybe two or three irrational breakdowns, but I'm not a constant blubbering mess or anything. But I think I've discovered that when I'm tired, I can't control the hormones as easily.
We had a really busy weekend (more on that in an upcoming post). But Sunday night at about 6 p.m., I was just exhausted. I sat in the rocker, not rocking (unusual for me, but I didn't have enough energy to even do that).
Mike looked over at me and asked if I was ok. I told him I was fine, just really tired. He said I should lay down, and I told him that I was hungry, so I was just trying to rest for a few minutes before I got up to make myself a sandwich for dinner. He said not to worry; he'd be happy to make me a sandwich. He emphasized how good his sandwiches are.
I said ok and thanked him. Then my eyes started tearing up. I pondered why that was happening and before I could figure it out, tears started streaming down my face.
Me: *sob* I think my hormones are acting up!
Mike: *alarmed* What's wrong?!
Me: Nothing! Absolutely nothing!
Mike: Was it that commercial? Did that get to you? (The commercial had a child in it, which is often enough to bring tears to my eyes, but I hadn't even really been watching the TV.)
Me: No! *sob* I was just thinking how nice it is of you to make me a sandwich!
Mike: Oh ... Do you want a salad, too?
Me: *SOB* Yes! Thank you!

ReplyDeletethis brought tears to MY eyes, because i can so relate! ahaha.
ReplyDeleteI cried over food, or the lack of getting food, more times than i can count. i cried at commercials whether they be about babies or animal shelters, it was instant. there was no stopping it.
i cried for NO REASON.
happy, sad, pissed off. didnt matter. it got worse the further along i was.
my mnost important advice on this topic....
do not, i repeat DO NOT listen to a St Jude telethon on the radio while pregnant. your car may flood, and you will have to explain to about a dozen co-workers that yes, you are indeed ok, because they can see how red your eyes are from the hysterical sobbing..
and that is all i have to say about that.
Hahahaha! This is very good advice, which I will take to heart.
