Emotional Overload

Have you had an emotional overload day while pregnant? I think it is something that I have as a pregnancy side effect. I don't get morning sickness bad. I have never had heart burn but emotional overload days, they just suck!


This morning was the worst one yet and I think that it wouldn't have been so bad if I didn't have to deal with my mom and her attitude this morning. 


When I get these emotional days I just feel like crying. I can barely function and just want to sit and cry about everything. It normally starts right after I wake up, whether it be from a nap or over night. The only cure is to lay back down and get more sleep.


Like I said, today was the worst one yet and I felt horrible because I couldn't just curl up on the couch and rest like I have in the past. With Rex it's hard to actually get a nap and really feel better quickly but today I had to do something. I had him pick out a movie and I went and laid in bed. I felt like a horrible mom but we have his hematologist follow up appointment from his surgery that I had to get better. 


He did great. It took about 1.5 hours of laying down to help me feel better. He watched his movie and then went in his room to play. He came in once to my room and checked on me and it was so cute. I'm glad that we have the lay out we do because I was able to feel somewhat comfortable laying in bed while Rex played in the rooms around me. Before it would have been another floor and it just wouldn't have worked. 


I feel better, I still have a little headache but it's not overwhelming me and making me want to cry. I got a shower and I'm needing to finish getting ready and lunch made so we can head out to the doctor. 


M was great too. I called him crying because I didn't know what to do or how to feel. He just told me to go lay down and get some rest and let him know how I felt after I got some rest. And he called my dad who is working close to home to let him know I wasn't feeling well so if he had a chance or if I really needed help he would be prepared to come home. He's such a great hubby when I need him to be!


Does anyone else have these crazy emotional overload days or is this just something that I go through?

I can't wait to see all of your holiday traditions & I'm sure add a few to my list too! Holiday Traditions? What are those? I'm not sure we have any set up in our family. We never really had anything that we did every year growing up either. So I'm not surprised that we haven't thought about setting anything up for our kids either. Last year we tried doing the  Three Wise Men Gifts  but I of course bought more than just 3 gifts. So what is the plan this year for holiday traditions in our house? Bass Pro Shop Winter Wonderland to visit Santa Three wise men gifts  One Santa gift plus the stocking Baking cookies at Granny & Great Popa's house Baking cookies at Grandma & Popa's house with cousins & then heading to the local fire department & police station to share with the men & women that keep us safe throug

My Pregnancy Story with Monkey

So I have one of those crazy "I didn't know I was pregnant" stories. Yes I didn't know I was pregnant until I was pretty far along but I will get to that.  In May 2008 we picked up and moved out of state. At this time we had been completely off birth control for 2 years and nothing. We also found out when we first started trying that I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)  which basically meant "good luck getting pregnant". We decided that we would start the adoption process if we were not pregnant by the time we were 30 so we had a few years (still do actually! Yeah God!) So we were just enjoying life in Oklahoma and enjoying the small town life. Every Sunday morning we would walk down the street and enjoy breakfast at Selena's, we'd sit on our front porch and talk with the neighbors, and visit family in town at least once a week. Starting close to October I started feeling like something was wrong with me so I went to the OU campus in Tu
