Emotions running rampant!

I was doing so well keeping my emotions in check and I thought to myself, "All those women who blame their pregnancy hormones for crazy emotions must be making it up." Then this weekend came and I decided they most certainly are NOT making anything up! I was out of control! Everything felt like a tragedy, I cried over the smallest things, and my emotions were so up and down. One minute I was laughing and the next I felt murderous rage over the stupidest things. And then of course I would cry about it.

It didn't help that it all ended with a trip to the hospital Sunday after calling the the nurses' line in severe pain. They wanted me to get to labor and delivery right away to make sure I wasn't having pre-term contractions. SO scary! Luckily, no contractions and baby was fine. I had some blood in my urine and they suspect I might have passed a small kidney stone. I follow-up Wednesday with my doctor, so hopefully everything will be back to normal then.

I'm glad to report I feel much better today and feel better prepared for the emotional roller coasters that are undoubtedly to come. 16 weeks and 2 days to go and I'm going to try to enjoy every moment!

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."
