Hi Saumya!
Just read ur message and felt like telling u somehting coz i was in a similar state of mind when i came back to my hubby with my 7 months baby!I used to feel irritated at my hubby's small li'll things, get all negative thoughts that made me cry & cry for hours together.
Know what i started making a note of such mood swings in a diary as to date and time.and in a few months time i realised that this is nothing but PMS !!(pre menstrual syndrome).i get this mood swings (for a day or 2), anytime in 1-2 weeks before my periods it gets peak just a day or 2 before my periods sometimes maybe during ovulation (i.e. 12- 14 days after my periods).i spoke to my gynaec and she told me this is due to hormonal fluctuations.since i had scanty milk supply i cdnt BF and so my periods started early at 1 1/2 mnths after delivery.
On my gynaec's advice i started taking vitamin supplements for 4 mnths and now i feel much better.One more reason for this was just like ur situation ...no friends to talk to ,hubby quite busy,etc.For this i stopped depending on my hubby and started making friends like neighbours,thru this very board,also kept in touch with old frenz..u knw wht when u get a call or an email frm ur frend or relative u feel good.also i regularly started reading messages on this board and realised hw lucky we r and started respecting all the small & big pleasures God has given us.

So Saumya cheer up ! this happens to many like u n me.but only with efforts u have to come out of it.or else this may have a serious cosequences in ur relationship with ur hubby and ur attitude towards ur baby.
so dont wasste time in consulting ur Gynaec(even if u r BF make a record of time & days of such mood swings,check ur hormone levels, take medicines ur doc prescribes regularly .but ha dont expect it to vanish within a month..it may take 2 -8 months and only with a positive attitude. Make friends thru internet.

Do tell me after u visited ur doc.
Cheer up and be positive,
enjoy every moment of this precious stage of motherhood.
