    pushing people away...

    i'm having problems with pushing my boyfriend away. i'm to the point where i hate my boyfriend i'm always yelling at trying to tell him to not act retarded and what not.... hes been to the point where he didnt want to be with me ne more and has left a couple of times. i've gotten so mad at him to where i've actually hit him and dont remember it because i black out when i did it. i feel like he treats me like *** when really its me and i know it... i'm 5 months pregnant and i'm due nov. 8th and i know that its getting to the point where my boyfriend is really going to leave me if i cant figure out how to handle my anger....

    I would def talk to your Dr for some advice... Pregnancy can be a difficult time with raging hormones. I get really mad for no reason sometimes as well and when it happens I just try to keep my mouth shut. I hope you can figure things out and things work out for you!

    i have the SAME kind of thing, just like raging anger and find myself shouting at my husband before i even know it's happening. it has happened after the first baby, and during the pregnancies of each subsequent one. granted, my husband has his own problems, but i've known that and been dealing with it in more helpful ways than screaming....sometimes things come out of my mouth that i don't even agree with!

    you can explain this is your hormones talking to your boyfriend----he MIGHT have a bit more sympathy. and i agree, call your doctor TODAY, see what can be done to help you out.  i have already ordered the over the counter stuff that i have always used----but your doctor should be able to help you find something that will work for you.

    wow I thought I was the only one that yelled and hit my husband?? I didn't really hit him, I would charge him and push him out of my way. But yeah, my husband and i used to argue like no other. It would be mostly me just wanting to vent or let my fustrations out, or I would find something about him that would annoy me and tell him about it in a not so nice way. What i found that worked was just taking a breather in another room, thinking about what just happened, and see where you're wanting to go from there. Tell your man about what you thought about. If he hasn't read anything about hormones when you're pregnant, show him something about it. The more you talk normally to each other, the better it becomes between you. I am now 30 weeks, and we still argue, but not as bad as 2 months ago. now the only thing that bugs me is if I come home and the house is messy. But I think pregnant or not thatmakes anyone angry? But I would talk to your dr, maybe they can refer you and your man to counselling? I wish you nothing but the best:)
