Being pregnant is usually a great feeling. Both you and your partner are excited about the new life you are about to bring into the world. As a woman at times you can tend to feel unloved during your pregnancy or too fat, lazy, tired, miserable. All those unwanted feelings on top of being pregnant, can sometimes show up parts of you that even you didn't knew existed.
So from one day to the next you feel sad and even angry. Your not even sure why you feel like this. The hormones which are produced in your body are there for several reasons during your pregnancy.
Progesterone - This hormone are for relaxing the muscles in your womb which prevent contractions which could lead to miscarriage.
Oestrogen - This Hormone is there to help the preparation of your babies milk
Rexalin - This Hormone helps to soften your tissues and joints helps to increase your flexibility which in turn prepares you for your labour.
These are just a few, these hormones can then lead to you feeling sick which leads to morning sickness. With all these hormones and issues running around your body, no wonder you then scream and shout at him indoors. Half the time he has no idea what is going on. All he knows is that you are pregnant and your hormones are creating havoc on you and him!
There isn't really that much you can do with the sickness the crying the snapping. The most you can do is get yourself into a calmer state as you possibly can for you. Apparently Ginger will help with the morning sickness, try some gentle swimming to keep you calm, this will release the Endorphins which keep us happy.
Let your partner know how all these hormones can affect you, let him know that this is not the usual you and he needs to bare with you and be understanding. You will be back to normal once the baby is born. Just be aware of all of this. Search the Internet for remedies which can reduce some of the feelings.
You want your partner to love your regardless of the hormones, after all your both going through this pregnancy together.
Ask him to give you back massages and foot rubs. Let him bring you breakfast in bed at times. Let him pamper you to keep your moods up there.
