Today I Cried Because...

Lets hear it, ladies.

I have not been extra hormonal this pregnancy so when I have my few and far between moments it's surprising to me. Unfortunately I had one at work this morning. Yesterday my coworker handed me a piece of paper and asked me to fax it to one of our other offices. I didn't think twice, just put it on the fax, typed in the number, and started it. My coworker bursts into laughter and asks if I read it. I pull it off the fax and read the first sentence, which was basically my coworker telling my other coworker how much she misses her sexy butt in our office every day. I immediately cancelled the fax and handed it back to my coworker, who thought it was hilarious.

Fast forward to this morning. I get a text from my office manager teasing me for sending the fax to one of our doctors clinics. I explain it got cancelled AND I hand typed our office number, so if it got sent to the clinic it wasn't sent by me. I get a reply along the lines of "yeah, sure". Now, as you can probably tell, the people I work with are not very professional. I've only worked with them for about 2 months now and my last job was very professional (but still fun). I definitely teared up and now I'm thinking it's just because I feel like they don't believe me, even though the whole thing is stupid. I've been working in this industry for 3+ years and I like my current reputation. Just irritates me way more then it should.

When I called to check on DS at his first day of daycare they let me know he had cried this morning after he realized H and I left him.

(

He has been fine since, but it made me feel bad and I cried.

I am starting to feel so overwhelmed! We hit the 100 day marker yesterday and it kind of freaked me out! Stress tears.

I read an article about gay marriage becoming legal here in oregon. It was really sweet and sappy stuff.

And less understandably, I dropped an ice cube and broke down in the kitchen.

I'm constipated SO BAD! I even had to go to the OB for it yesterday. I'm eating lots of fiber, drinking tons of water, and can't have prune juice or a lot of fruits due to GD. I've been taking Colace since my BFP and I still feel like I'm giving birth and want to pass out every time I try to go to the bathroom. My OB is having me start Miralax and this magnesium stuff....but still. It's cry-worthy right now, trust me. Wah.

This is what I'm struggling with right now. DS starts preschool in two weeks at a new center and I am so worried of how he'll react once we leave. I'm tearing up just thinking about it!

Man I hope this center works out well for us. I don't want to have to worry about ever switching to a new place!

I'm sorry you're having to start at a new center. Hopefully the transition will be great.

Re-reading one of the most powerful scenes in my favorite series (Book 2 of the Wheel of Time, for any other Jordan fans out there). These aren't pregnancy tears though, the scene gets me every time, and I've been reading these books since 1995!

M&Max · May 2014

Just got the call from the OB's office that I failed the 1 hr GTT. Obviously, not cry worthy but my irrational self teared up sitting here at work. And to top it off, this isn't even a shock for me since all along I've been saying I bet I don't pass the 1 hr one. Just dumb hormones.

Right there with you. It is AWFUL! I have also been taking Colace (3 a day) and it was helping for a while but now not so much. I know part of the problem is I have not been drinking as much water as I was. I was being really good and drinking 100oz+ everyday but I'm so damn tired of peeing every 5 minutes. Apparently it's not an option though. I have literally been confined to the bathroom for hours, in tears, thinking giving birth has got to be easier than this! Definitely bringing it up, again, at my appointment next week. Hope things get better for you soon!

Aw, I'm sorry you're in the same boat! My MFM recommended this too in order to keep things regular once I get a handle it. You could ask your doctor about it if you want: https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Vitality-Calm-Raspberry-Lemon/dp/B00BPUY3W0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1400611719&sr=8-1&keywords=natural+calm

It arrives Thursday. She said many of her patients have success with keeping things going, and it allegedly tastes good too. Fingers crossed, but figured I'd share!

We finally moved but I stop in at our old house every other day to check on things after dropping off DS at school. Every time I cry.

Daisylola11 · May 2014

We moved and I signed up for cable and internet for the new place, I thought I found a great deal! Now, we haven't had cable for the past 3 yrs.... Sooo when they installed it, I flipped through and I realized that it was the most basic channels, and I cried because now I have like 50 shopping channels and 20 news channels and some random ok channels... But no TLC, TNT, FX, E, OXY,BRVO, etc. this sucks!

Today I cried because my co-workers had a surprise baby shower for me! I walked in and once I realized what was going on I turned around and walked out crying. Totally sweet, unexpected and overwhelming. Oh the hormones!

FrodaBaggins · May 2014

Today I cried because I was reading the blog of a new friend and it's all about he and his wife's journey to adopt their now 2 year old son, and how they are in the final stages of their adoption #2. The beautiful story of how their family came together after many painful years of dealing with infertility moved me to tears!!

While we were out, our dog ripped open my husband's gym bag and ate all of his protein powder. I told my husband "Way to leave your gym bag on the floor for the dog to get at it!" and he ignored me for a good 10 hours. I cried like a baby.

I've been rereading Harry Potter, and everytime Dumbledore says wise things to Harry, I tear up.

I cried today as a co-worker tried to have a therapy session with me in her office about my possible ppd... I'm confused about all how I'm feeling and I know that she's trying to help, but I don't want to talk about my feelings and I especially don't want to talk about it at work... I talked to DH about it when I got home and about how broken I am, but he's the only one I even remotely want to talk to about it..

Raclla · May 2014

Today I cried because stuff is stupid and I'm tired and work is so much work and trying to make sense is hard and whatever.

MNdesigner · May 2014

Not today, but recently I cried because I was trying to order something on Shutterfly, and after a long process of organizing my photos, uploading, etc, I found out at checkout that the coupon code I wanted to use expired THE DAY BEFORE.

I didn't just cry, I ugly-cried. Not my finest moment!

I was driving around making sales calls and I unknowingly ended up near the national cemetery my grandparents are buried at. Lost my shit. Proceeded to stop and buy a little flower wreath and star and left it. All the while asking them to visit my sisters and communicate with them to get their heads out of their asses. I watch Long Island medium. They heard me

tamarar5 · May 2014

Today I cried a whole bunch. First, I wanted a shower because it's so dam damn hot but our shower faucet is broken. Then I cried because we are into day 2 of trying to fix said faucet. Next, it hit 85 when the weather report called for 68. Lastly, after he got home from work, dh and I set to finishing the shower faucet and repairing the wall, only to discover the new faucet is defective and we have to rip everything out and return it. So then I cried again because I still can't take a shower and I'm hot and sweaty and gross.

I'm willing to try anything! Will definitely ask about it, thanks!

Aw, I'm sorry! I did the same about a month ago. I am typically not an emotional person. My grandfather just passed in December right before we found out we were expecting. He and my grandmother are buried together in a cemetery nearby which I drive by often. One day I was driving by and looked over and waved and said hello as I always do (you can see their headstone from the street). For the first time ever I burst into tears while driving by. I don't even remember where I was going but I stopped and bought sunflowers (both their favorites) and went to visit. It was nice but so out of the ordinary for me!

Oh, and I love Long Island Medium too! I don't care what anyone says
