Hello, I am new to the forums.
I am 26 and am pregnant with my second child. My mom passed away a few months back at the age of 41 from Lung Cancer. I am the oldest of 5 kids and some are still grade school aged. I felt like when my mom passed I was dealing with the stress of loss, pregnancy, work, and home life fine until I reached my 8th month of pregnancy last week. Now I feel empty, tired, fatigued, irritable, quick to anger, argumentative, unmotivated, overwhelmed, stressed, and tearful. Arguing daily with my husband over little things and feeling like I'm being unreasonsable because I have to have everything a certain way. I'm quick to anger with my toddler and find I don't have as much patience with her like I use to.
To anyone who has experience with this or professional opinions: What's wrong with me? Am I in a funk? Is it hormones? Will it go away? Am I officially depressed? What are some home remedies or self-help things I can do?
