Pregnant after IF

getting upset/heavily crying and cramps

Have you had any heavy emotional experiences since getting KU? My mom and I got into it tonight and I ended up crying so hard I gave myself the hiccups. By the time I got off the phone (three hours later) I was exhausted and for the first time this entire pregnancy I had TERRIBLE cramps. I drank a ton of water and laid down and I feel better, finally, two hours later.

I'm so frustrated that I didn't control the situation better. My focus needs to be these babies.

Anywho, if you've gotten really worked up did you notice heavy cramping? I'm trying to figure out if this is related of if I need to monitor the cramping (and, of course, look at the TP every time I wipe Sad) TIA!

    Ugh.... I am sorry :(

    I was pretty emotional in the beginning.  I did not notice a connection between that and cramping, but I was SUPER crampy the entire first trimester.   I guess my point is, the cramps are pretty normal.  

    Sorry that you were so upset, hon. :(

  • Oh honey, I'm so sorry.  Honestly, if you were on the phone crying for three hours, you probably did get a little dehydrated, not to mention the abdominal stress from sobbing crying.  Drinking water and lying down seem like the right way to go to me, but I think you're fine, really.  I'm just so sorry you had such a rough phone call with your mom.  Rest up, and feel better!  (((hugs)))
  • I'm sure your LOs are safe and snug in there hon :)

    I totally have been more emotional than normal. Yesterday I was crying while watching America's Got Talent. (That's right - There was a bunch of little girls who made it through and I cried.)

  • I get a little weepy at stupid things like commercials and songs, but I haven't gotten into it with anyone, if anything my mother has been more tolerable than ever (I think she is on her best behavior because she doesn't want me keeping the babies away from her when they get here).

    The cramps though I have had come and go.  Water always helps.  I hope today is a better day.

  • Cramping is normal - especially when you're dehydrated. I'm so sorry your mom upset you like that. I hope things get better.

  • I'm so sorry.  I have noticed that I cry a lot easier and will cry for absolutely no reason, but I've never noticed cramps.  Damn hormones!

  • I'm sorry!  I hope you're feeling better.
  • I'm so sorry!

    I think you did the right thing by drinking water and lying down. Don't beat yourself up over getting upset.  Families have a way of getting to us even when we're not hormonal.

  • I am so sorry that you and your mother got into it like that. That is the last thing you want or need now.

    I do get cramps when I get super excited or worked up. After the USA world cup games I have had terrible cramps. They went away after I rested though.

  • I am sorry, sweetie.  I did get upset with the passing of my father, and did have some cramps.  I just sat down and drank a lot of water.
  • thanks girls for all the kind words and reassurance!
