is it typical during the last few days of pregnancy to be irritated?

I have been very irate and irritated the last few days and it doesn’t seem to be letting up. Everything and everyone is bothering me. The slightest touch or comment sends me off the handle. I wasn’t or haven’t been like this the whole pregnancy until I hit about 38 weeks. How or what can I do to change it?

It is normal to be moody at ANY point during pregnancy. I have one child and am 24 weeks with my second. My first time I was as sweet as can be. This time I have been moody off and on, usually for no real reason whatsoever. I have found that removing myself from the situation (if possible) helps. Go read a book, watch tv, nap, whatever, as long as you are alone you may relax.

Otherwise, I just try to keep my mouth shut, as not to spew venom on any undeserving parties.
