hi everyone, i am 19 years old and i am 20 weeks pregnant...i wanted to get pregnant wiht my boyfriend but i am finding that he is not understanding the chnages in my hormones and i am crying all the time or get hurt so eaisly i feel like im crazy soemtimes, am i the only one? by boyfriend thinks im wacko? i wanted this baby so badly wiht him and i feel now i might end up alone. i dont want this to harm my baby what should i do?

hi every body i am 19 weeks pregnant with twins my spouse does not seem to understand me. my hormones are all out of whack one minute i am happy and the next i am crying uncontrollably and blaming my spouse for not caring. i feel like i am putting my babies under stress. am i alone or does anyone else feel the same?

hey i am also 19 years old and 20 weeks pregnant and have been an emotional rollercoaster.i feel so bad because i know that i am a monster to be around and everyone including my boyfriend feel as though there walking on eggshells for me...but i do have faith that it is all a part of the journey and i think the best thing you can do is to reassure those around you that pregnancy can take a huge toll on our emotions but that it is perfectly normal and youll soon feel like yourself again!when i feel really upset i take a few minutues to an hour by myself so i can relax and clear my head.it may sound silly but it does work!i wish you the best of luck.

hi im 17 and 2o weeks pregnant i feel the same as you do! although my boyfriend dosent think im wacko he jus dusnt seem i ntrested in talking about baby stuff and hes not as caring as i thought he would of been nw im pregnant.although ive askd him why this is and he tells me its because hesannoyed at the fact everyone around us has new born babys and we still have to wait.bless he us wants the baby to be here and i thought he wasnt intrested awwwwwwwww.

Just want to say, you really are not alone. It is so normal to have hormonal changes that affect not only you, but all around you. You will feel tearful and irrational and just wierd for a time whilst you are pregnant and after for a bit too. But believe me it levels out and you will be the old you again soon. Your boyfriend probably does not understand and does think you are going bonkers. But that is also pretty normal. The key to it all is being able to talk about it. You two will have to be able to talk with one another for the rest of your lives together, as this little person needs you both so much. Try to compose yourself and arrange to meet your fella somewhere outside. Maybe a nice walk somewhere. Find a place to sit and open up. You must tell him all the good things he does and why you care about him and how amazing this whole baby thing is. and.. how scared you are of not being able to share your feelings with him just because you think he will leave you alone or just get angry with you. Tell him you need him and you hope he feels the same way. You are both achieving one of the most amazing things on this earth together and you need to give life together a chance.
Say you want to be able to talk with him about everything. But one thing you must remember is this is also a very strange time for him. Life is changing fast and there is no going back. He maybe happy, angry, sad, over the moon about this baby thing. So listen to him too. remember not to judge one another negatively. Snuggle into eachothers shoes for a bit and try to understand. I could go on for ages but am just off out. Hang in there darlin. It will get better but it will take time. I have toddler of 2 yrs and am 20 weeks pregnant with twins. I am so scared about it all. But I guess we girls have just got to remain level headed about it and go with the flow. Try and hold good thoughts in your head and say goodbye to all that negative stuff. Take care babe. x

hi i am replying to your message i am 20 just turned it and i wanted to get pregnant 2 yrs ago but it did not happen now it happened unexpecting and the father of baby we have been on and off for 2 yrs now and ive been with him for 4 yrs i was happy before now im not i sad all the time i dont have anyone to talk to im mad that im not happy bout bein pregnant so i really know how you feel ive been down for a while now and when we are together we fight and him and my mom think im wacko but everyone tells me you wont be alone but thats not how i feel cause he already has a baby hes 4yrs old and the father treats me like sh** now that i am pregnant he dont think so but it happens i am very mad, sad and everything its just too much i see all every other women out there havin a baby and happy but theres one thing i can say havin a baby your supposed to be happy no thats not true there are people who are very sad, but dont harm the baby cause thats a peice of you and when you get upset just think of the baby i try too!!!!

Unfortunately man will never understand the goings on of the female body! Your body is doing the most amazing thing at the moment, you are making a baby- remind him of it every day but in a nice way. Try and get some books or print outs from the internet of "what's going on this week", with you and the baby, show him and talk to him about it, get him involved. He'll never fully understand but he can be interested and him being interested will make you so happy and feel worth-while. If he is with you for the birth, he'll be the one crying, and it'll all come together for him. He'll respect you so much and think what you've just done is amazing! My husband and I thought we were soul mates before we had our baby! Now, it's totally different, he was an emotional wreck. I have never felt so special and worshiped as that day! Like I say explain to him and try to get him to enjoy it! x

Im 21 and pregnant with my 2nd (i know, im mad and i think my body thinks contraception is a fertility treatment!) i am up and down emotionally too - sometimes my bf is good about it, sometimes he thins im making it up to be difficult!
It must be so difficult for a man too, as they are going to be a dad - thats scary stuff! and they are seeing u act like u never have before. Dont worry about being on your own! Just think, you're half way there now! And then you'll have a beautiful baby to be with and everything will calm down.(well, kind of!)

"Aaaahhhh hormones .... "

Hi it's quite normal to feel all over the place, to feel emotional, or over emotional! Myself, tonight I couldn't stop crying over nothing... well I was very tired and looking after my 2 children, but just couldn't stop crying!

Talk to your partner, and explain that you're going through a lot of changes, and I'm sure he'll understand, but don't have those negative thoughts about your couple, you'll be fine! Just talk to him, and tell him you need a big hug when you cry...

All the best

*Sweet Mamma*

It's very normal to be like this. Perhaps you should get someone to talk to him who knows what it is like to be pregnant.
My husband didn't understand at first when I was pregnant with my first baby but he soon got used to it.
