    Had another brief row with dp earlier on the phone, which has made me emotional all over again.

    I had just about calmed down from yesterday, when I spent most of the morning in tears and now I'm off again.

    Is it just hormones or am I a miserable cow?

    When I sas the consultant the other day, she said I could go for counselling if I was feeling depressed as I have been on prozac in the past. I said no because dp was sitting there but I'm wondering if I should have said yes now.

    Could you ring the consultant's secretary and ask them to get the consultant to refer you for counselling now...whether it's hormones or the situation you are in, it must be awful for you to feel so bad :hug Counselling can't hurt, and may help a lot (it has helped me more than I would have imagined and I've only had 10 sessions).
    Is dh anti-counselling for any reason?
    Does he not believe it will work or does he think that you'll talk about him (my dh worries about this..and he's right I do talk about him)
    I should be studying :whistle

    Dp and I aren't getting on at the moment. We are already attending Relate and I just didn't want him to have an excuse to blame absolutely everything on my hormones, which is what he tends to do. I just didn't want him to know.

    Oh Harman that's dreadful..... how many months are you? Hormonsed or not it would help you to speak to someone so reach out for the counselling... why are men so insensitive to women whenn they are pregnant ?????

    I'm nearly 15 weeks now, only another 25 to go!!

    I think I might try and find out about the counselling. It can't hurt.

    I'm so sorry to hear how bad you are feeling, you've got enough going on in your relationship to be emotional on that basis alone, as well as being pregnant!! I don't see why DP would have to know if you went for counselling?

    :hugs

    Sending you loads of :hug

    Do try the counselling it might be really effective. If nothing else it will give you some time that is 100% about you and how you feel.

    Hope you start to feel better soon
