Emotional Changes

Your body is making unusual amounts of hormones. At certain times, this can make you feel exhausted, forgetful, or moody. In the three trimesters of pregnancy you will experience:

Extreme fatigue or morning sickness can color your daily life. Moodiness is normal, happiness and anxiety about a new pregnancy, or feeling upset about an unplanned pregnancy, are also common.

Trimester 1-

Trimester 2-

Trimester 3-

Fatigue, morning sickness, and moodiness usually improve or go away. You may feel more forgetful and disorganized than before. Looking heavier than normal, then looking visibly pregnant and feeling the baby move, can make you feel any number of emotions.

Forgetfulness may continue. As your due date nears, it is common to feel more anxious about the childbirth and how a new baby will change your life. As you feel more tired and uncomfortable, you may be more irritable than before.
