How to stop myself from crying easily?

this is my first pregnancy, an unplanned one. I get mood swings every now and then but this time round, it is so bad that I cry so easily for the past 2 - 3 days. basically I started feeling that it is so unfair that my lifestyle had to be changed so much. this includes stopping on smoking, drinking, eating raw food, & that big cut on drinking coffee tea coke, bbt and cold stuff. all these while my partner can just go on with his usual lifestyle. he tried, to not smoke with me. but everytime we go out with friends, it will be his cheat day. Well, we go out often. now I just want to isolate myself at home instead of watching everyone do everything that I wanted. how do I accept all these and stop crying? I'm really worried that my mood affects my baby.

I feel you, guys have it so easy I asked my husband change his lifestyle with me hahaha. I told him I feel very sad whenever he gets to eat what I can’t. So now, he has been eating a pregnancy diet whenever he’s eating with me. At least, most of the time. He does get cheat days once in a while, which is ok for me. Because I see the effort he makes to follow my diet most days. You’re very responsible, giving up the indulgences in life for your baby. But actually, eating raw food is ok, my Gynae says it’s fine as long as it’s clean. I have friends who had sashimi throughout their pregnancy and their baby is fine. Caffeine intake is about 200mg/day, which is ok for us to have a BBT or tea or 1 cup of coffee :) I’ll just buy a large cup of BBT to share with my husband, so I can’t enjoy the taste without taking too much caffeine Anyway, you can do it! In less than a year’s time you can finally indulge yourself!
