I think it's normal. You're going through a big change in life. A child is a huge responsibility and if you're ready to take it on expect to feel a whole range of emotions. Big changes take big emotions.

hey there,

at the end of your pregnancy hormones are bound to be flying all over the place but its normal however as others have said keep an eye on it and chat to your doctor about it. the pressure ur feeling that makes you want to pee could be the baby's head engaging into ur pelvis and then coming back out again. this is common in the final few weeks of pregnancy as baby is positioning itself for labour. however as youngcouple said if the pressure gets too much call your midwife and have a chat with her or your doctor and tell them wots going on and they will take things from there.

good luck with the baby hunny xx

SirenaBlusera agony auntI've never had kids of my own, but I've read about this phenomenon. Caring Guy is right, hormones can affect your mood profoundly. Furthermore, it's a big change in your life.

I don't have experience with postpartnum depression, because I've never given birth, but I HAVE had depression.

This is really personal but I don't mind discussing it. It happened to me a couple years ago. There was a man I loved dearly and he let me down.

It felt like the end of the world at the time.

But, you'll be all right. Even if it doesn't feel like it, you'll be okay.

You say that you have to use the toilet all the time... are you still pregnant? That's really common because your uterus is pressing down on your bladder. Still, you should discuss ANY symptoms with your doctor.

Hey its the wife. I just had a baby a month ago. Yea its very normal. If you start feeling too much pressure it like you have to go but can't call your Dr it could be labor. But yea you will get moody a lot at the end.

I think it's pretty normal to feel this way. Most women when pregnant seem to have very quick hormonal changes. Just be aware though that this could lead to depression. So don't be afraid to talk to a doctor about it
