I think if I wasn't pregnant and emotional, I would be handling this potty training thing a lot better. It's really one of the most annoying things ever. I don't know if I am doing things right and I am constantly receiving unsolicited advice from pretty much everyone. Pull-ups or undies? Toilet in the living room or in the bathroom? Pants on, pants off? Should I put her in pull ups when we leave the house, or should I just fucking wing it?
On Tuesday (New Year's Day) I had an emotional breakdown. I have had these before, but this one lasted all day and into the night. Everything made me angry, then cry, which eventually led to to a full fledged panic attack. I am an anxious and obsessive person by nature. When I am not pregnant, I am on anti anxiety medication. I don't do pregnancy well because of these factors. I have never actually experience an anxiety attack before. It was weird. I laid down on the couch after putting Stella down and couldn't get comfortable. My body felt jumpy and my breathing started to get out of sync. I turned to Morgan and told him I didn't feel right. I tried to calm down, but the more I tried, the worse it got. I all of the sudden felt an overwhelming urge to throw up (which hasn't happened since my first trimester). I ran to the bathroom and vomited 5 times in a row. It was massive and unexpected. Since then I have felt a bit better, but still off.
I just want Stella to pee and poop in the toilet. I want my anxiety to go away and I want to feel normal, whatever that may be.
