Anyone else super emotional?

I've noticed since i've gotten pregnant, i've been a little uber emotional...like, if i see a baby crying in a restaraunt...i'll get a little teary. Normally i'm able to control myself by taking a breath and calming down and then it's over. Same when I see a cute or emotional commercial, i'll get teary...but it's gone within seconds. 

Today, however, it's been like i've stepped off the deep end. It started this morning when I made a comment about the "What not to wear" episode that DH and I had flipped to. DH told me that the reason I did not see anything wrong with her clothes is because that's my style...safe and conservative and blah. I got a little upset, but I know he's telling the truth, I have an insane sense of comfort style. An hour later, when I came back out of our room, I heard the baby crying on 'bringing home baby' and burst into tears. DH calmed me down and talked me out..but it was just so emotional and i had just read an article in Parents about separation anxiety. I then proceeded to watch 2 shows in a row of Baby Story, one which included the baby's heart rate dropping and an emergency c-section. Both caused me to cry. I was joking on facebook with a friend who has a kid about how I was 10 times more emotional today and was crying at everything. My mother's friend inserts her 2 cents with "Snap out of it, you need to get a grip before the baby comes" 

I understand that she's older (my mom's age) and that she's been there, done that...but I thought that being emotional was part of being pregnant? All in all, I think i'm just having an off day where everything sets me off, but i've had all of 3 in the course of my 23 weeks. Now her comment is making me tear up.

Anyone else have these kind of days? Where everything under the sun makes you tear up and get emotional?

Yep, I am. I'll cry at the drop of a hat these days.

My husbad keeps telling me that now that I'm pregnant I'm acting like a girl! LOL.  Prior to pregnancy, I was not at all touchy or super emotional...oh well honey...deal with it!  But, I'm more emotional in the irritated type, not really crying but getting very upset very quickly.

last night i cried when i smashed my finger in an attempt to help my husband set up the crib, didn't talk to him for a few hours while i tried to figure out what i was mad/upset about, and then cried (read: SOBBED) for literally an hour in bed last night while trying to explain to him why i had had a bad day (none of which made any sense).

yes, i'd say i'm a bit emotional.

I'm so glad i'm not the only one. My poor DH is so patient, but I know it's wearing thin on him.
