In a glass case of emotion

lellymine · January 2014

I thought these weepy periods were supposed to stop in the 1st trimester. I started sobbing this morning because DH had to go to work. Then I cried because the scale said I gained 4 lbs in 2 days and just got done with another sob session because he brought me a cookie and flowers because I'm so weepy lately. It doesn't help that I'm exhausted and my back and hips hurt at night so I don't sleep well.

Please tell me some of the dumb things you've cried over so I don't feel like such a soggy tear stained mess!

My husband had a promotional exam today and I cried when he left. He's been studying for four months and has missed numerous events. I finally have him back it was all the stress of these last four months poured out into tears this morning. I cried because my Boss was let go, I cried on a stupid commercial. Ugh glad it's not just me I'm a big ball of emotions.

I cried the day after Christmas because I wanted it to be Christmas again.

Can I just say the title of this thread makes me love you

This has been a week of tears for me. I've cried at the end of 2 episodes of parenthood (We are catching up on them) I cried when my mom bought my stroller. I cried at the end of lunch with my friends since I didn't want it to end. This has been the worst week of tears for me and add in my uncle passing away and I would say I have cried on average an hour a day.

@mztwilson - this is my favorite. you win.

I cry all the time. I sobbed through work yesterday - my boss is a bitch, then my coworker was consoling me and being so nice so I just started sobbing about everything to her. I have no idea what I'm doing, I wanted to buy a bookshelf until someone told me it would fall on the baby's head, what kind of mother am I?

Last week I sobbed on DH's birthday because I couldn't put on a cute outfit and go out drinking with him. AND WE'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO ENJOY THAT AGAIN! THAT PART OF OUR LIVES IS OVER! And so on, and so on, until I'm pretty sure that his birthday was just ruined. Poor guy, I owe him one.

I cried over socks yesterday. You are not alone.

But, SERIOUSLY, I know put all the socks away in pairs yesterday. How is just one missing? HOW???

lellymine · January 2014

Ok I feel a million times better now!! These hormones are total bitches.

hscoggins · January 2014

My H ate my muffin I was so excited to have for breakfast the other morning and I found myself crying alone in the kitchen.

I still cry at anything sentimental on TV. Luckily, H has gotten pretty good with handling the hormones. Last week I started bawling at a commerical and he hugged me and said 'just let it all out, girl!'

My BFF sent out a mass text of her u/s - she's almost 7 weeks. This in and of itself is fine and I was thrilled to see it and was anxious to know how her appointment went. But sometimes, and I don't know why it happens with a group text b/c I couldn't see the other phone numbers that she sent to but then I started to receive other people's replies to her.

Most replies were fine - like "I'm so excited" or "how are you feeling" but then one person wrote "Isn't it so terrifying right before they do the ultrasound?!?" then it's the biggest relief ever!" and it made me cry. I'd had good ultrasounds with my mmc and it's my original due date today. No big relief on that day back in June when they said no heart beat.

Oh that's rough! I'm so sorry

I cried at Ikea yesterday after a stranger was rude to me while waiting on line. And after only moderate gain up til now, I've gained 5 pounds since Monday (!!!) so I feel ya on that.

Luna C · January 2014

I haven't been weepy, but I've been very anxious about silly things.

As soon as I got home, I started freaking out that I may have accidentally sent an important file to the wrong person at work since he didn't respond like he normally does. (Due to our IT security, I can't check my work email from home.)

Then, I finally remembered that right before I hit "reply" I noticed that the person I was contacting had a new title, so I obviously had input the correct address. But still... I keep worrying. It's silly. I sent the email, he got the file, it's going to be fine. But I'll be thinking about this tonight when I try to go to sleep, guaranteed.

I cried because the owner of Hs company pulled him aside today to tell him if I have to be put on bed rest not to hesitate to ask for financial help. They are there to help no matter what. I just started bawling. He hasnt been there for 6 months and they are being so great about out potential situation. I feel so blessed.
And now I'm getting ready to cry sitting here in the waiting room waiting to be told our fate!

wtfisup · January 2014

I wanted to cry today because I had to drive home, but I didn't because I was too lazy to cry.

labooshki · January 2014

Let's see. I was listening to Howard Stern this morning and he was talking about Neil Young's set list for Carnegie Hall this weekend and I started crying.

It was a really great list of songs.

WTF hormones.

colllydon · January 2014

Can't believe no one has done this yet... Hope it makes you feel better!

JulieSmiles · January 2014

I can tell you that the other day when H and I were watching our guilty pleasure, Awkward ( a silly MTV show), I started crying. Not just crying either.. I was holding back the "ugly sob". If anyone watches the show they can confirm it's not cry worthy, let alone ugly sob worthy.

@nnh7 I totally ugly-cried over this show a few weeks ago too. I even made fun of myself right after because there was no reason to cry! Darn that Matty and Jenna! Can't they just work things out and be happy together! Ugh! *** Now I might go cry again because the season is over. ***

I cried yesterday because my BF leaves for Virginia in two weeks and I have to finish the pregnancy alone. Came home and had cake for dinner

Lindsleigh77 · January 2014

Lame but totally bawled watching the end of home alone with hubby and little man the other night. Happens to the best of us lol

PinkKEL9 · January 2014

I cried this morning because my husband had to go to work and I just wanted to be with him. It was really pathetic but in my mind, it was just such a real struggle.

2blessingsin1 · January 2014

I had gotten both my sons tablets for Christmas and last night they were roughing around and I got kicked in the back I turned to swat the son that had kicked me in the back... he had his tablet over his butt.... I hit the back side of the tablet and shattered the LCD screen... I cried for hours because I had broke his Christmas present, DH looked at me before we went to bed last night and was like are you going to be back to normal tomorrow? He so does not know how to deal with a sobbing crying me... I DO NOT do that.

Did call the Geek Squad to find out that the LCD screen could not be replaced. I did not feel better til I replaced it.

Kc4mom · January 2014

I cried like a baby reading birthing class discriptions, this is my 4th baby but it's been 6 years since my last. Reading about birth made it so real that come June I'll be doing it again

mjdavies · January 2014

I dropped a huge batch of chopped mushrooms on the floor as I was trying to put them in a pan and cried. That was during T day prep and I was super overwhelmed.

I cried this weekend because I didn't want to leave the house (and didn't have to) but felt like I should.

The new Turbo Tax commercial made me cry. Pathetic.

noryang · January 2014

I cry because I am crying. Sometimes I cry because I haven't cried. Go freaking figure that one out.

wtfisup · January 2014

To be frank, the emotions are ye hardest part of pregnancy before me. I've dealt with anxiety and depression for years and dropped my meds before TTC. I'm in a stable place, but the hormones are doing a number. I'd take the physical ailments any day over these struggles.

Kburchie · January 2014

I laughed while reading this as I was sitting in my car when it's 20 degrees out eating an ice cream sundae and crying over a tough day at work. This thread is the story of my life right now.

While driving to my appt last week, I passed a dog that had been hit on the side of the road and just started crying uncontrollably. I couldn't stop for a good 25 minutes and was almost late because I couldn't pull it together. I cried on and off about that dog for about 48 hours. And I avoided the road for a week before I drove on it again (and it's a major highway so that was no easy feat).

Oh that makes me want to cry!!! I'd cry over that even when I'm not pregnant though!

I been trying not to let my mom make me cry. We just moved Saturday then I came down with the stomach flu then DH did and we've been working so hard to get everything done and get our old house in shape for two showings this weekend and my mom has to nit pick about all the stuff we need to do like taking up the boxes protecting our floors and stuff that still needs to be done at the old house. I know I asked for her input on the old house but I was hoping she'd give us some credit too for how much we've really done at both houses. We have a virtual mountain of boxes in our dining room at the new house (yes mom we will breakdown and haul those out soon, ugh) and the old house is maybe only a couple hours away from being clean if we work this weekend. I know my mom is always negative so I shouldn't let her get to me. Must stop typing before I let the tears out....
