Today was a rough day. When I got home...there were tears. :( It was long lots of fighting, tattletales, and whining (from the kids); and I had ZERO patience for it all! I am finding that to be more and more common as I have been pregnant (the lack of patience thing) and I do not like it, the kids at work do not like it, and I am sure my husband does not like it either though he hasn't said yet... my attitude needs to change NOW I refuse to be a grumpy pregnant lady (and if you are reading this and are pregnant, please do not assume that I am calling you grumpy, just me). So that is my goal, instead of pout and be upset because life is sometimes hard I am going to focusing on changing MY attitude instead of everyone around me (because that sure is not working). So here is to a new attitude and a little more patience! (hopefully this works or we will be back tomorrow)
Wow writing it all down does help, and lucky for McKay I think it is all out of my system so he doesn't have to hear about it when he gets home! And so that this post isn't entirely pathetic, here is a belly picture at 17 weeks...
Hope you are all having a better day than I did!
I preferr to think of it as the "underlying pregnancy anger" I get crabby and frustrated really easily. I tell my boys all the time that I'm a mean mom, but when I'm pregnant it gets much worse. I think it's the raging hormones running through the body. It's like having major PMS all the time. When I go into labor I'm even worse. Chris gets embarrassed by my rude behavior to the nurses. But really!!! I don't want to fill out paperwork when I'm in that much pain!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was pregnant with Jacob I was working at a preschool and I was pretty sure I was gonna bite some child's head off by the end. So...does it help to know others have been through it?
ReplyDeleteYou're amazing, Kajsa! Your attitude is inspiring to me :) Love you girl!
