Pregnancy and birth are two life-changing events that are bound
to bring out both the best and worse in any woman. Some women report
being more cheerful and patient, while others are as grouchy as a
grizzly bear. One thing is for certain- most women experience moods
swings that are equivalent to a roller coaster ride during pregnancy and
during the initial months after birth!
These mood changes are caused by the hormonal changes in your body
during this crucial phrase. Your body starts producing more progesterone
and oestrogen, two hormones that helps develop your growing foetus and
gives you a healthy pregnancy.

I’d like to hear some of your pregnancy mood swing stories!
I really need to know that I’m not crazy.. I’ve been having pretty bad mood swings here and there, but I really WENT OFF on the hubby last night.. I even threw his stuff out in the front yard. Poor thing, I keep thinking if this continues he will probably leave me.
Just need a good laugh right about now =)

Mood swings are conditions when a person experiences a drastic change in emotion within a span of few hours. Someone who suffers from this problem, in one moment feels very happy and the next moment is suddenly upset , irritated, and downright hostile .
Studies have shown that women experience mood swings twice as many as men. This is not surprising because many mood swings are the effect of premenstrual syndrome, pregnancy, menopause, hypothyroidism and other biological problems. Studies also show that mood swings in women tend to be longer and more manic. This article will explain some tips on how to deal with mood swings especially in women :

I’m bipolar and 20 weeks pregnant. Right now I’m seriously in the low end of the spectrum. I’m really worried about post partem depression considering that I’m already prone to having manic/depression episodes. I’ve taken the meds before and I can’t function even on the low doses. Anti-depressants don’t work at all. I just wanted to hear other people who may have been bipolar during pregnancy.
And yes, I will be speaking to my doctor, but that doesn’t do any good without hearing some other opinions on the matter. I’ve tried going non-medicated and I really don’t believe that it’s very healthy for me to go without.

Ladies who have been pregnant… what signs did you show at 2 months? I’m 2 months pregnant and just found out, because I haven’t shown many signs until about a week ago… now it’s full on… I’m noticing the baby bump, and I feel nauseous, and I’m noticing a lot of mood swings. I snap at my husband, Patrick, a lot, but immediately feel bad, because he never does anything but help me out and he’s just the sweetest. Also, I’ve had a bit of morning sickness, but not much, and I’m so tired. Is this all normal at two months? Are the mood swings most likely going to get worse? I feel bad, because it’s causing my husband a lot of stress… He gets the brunt of it, and I can see it in his eyes when I snap… He’s already freaking out (He’s excited, of course, but super nervous.), and I feel like I’m makin g it worse. In your experiences, how were the mood swings during your pregnancy? Do they get worse??

Ever since I’ve been pregnant my mood swings and attitude has been through the roof. My boyfriend says I am bitching at him alot and its making him mad. I never was this bitchcy before I was pregnant but now Im a monster. Everytime I get mad at him he gets mad at me also. I told him that he needs to cooperate with me, but he says he’s not used to this. We dont live together right now, so when we argue its over the phone. When we get together we are very happy. We just cant stop arguing over the phone. How did your significant other handle your mood swings? I dont want him to get fed up and leave me. How should this be handled?
Also, we argue about stupid things. How did you get your significant other to deal with your mood swings?
