Crying...

jennkg3 · July 2014

....over everything. I'm looking at announcement photos on Pinterest bawling my eyes out! This has to be a girl. I wasn't an emotional mess with ds but I definitely was with dd! Anyone else?

JerseyHopeful · July 2014

Could NOT control my emotions yesterday. Then SO asked (in an annoyed tone) "why are you so emotional and overeacting" ....nearly killed him ...while crying

lunamishka · July 2014

I've been crying at almost everything that happens on gossip girl the past three days. Wtf lol

alibc123 · July 2014

Luckily I'm not super emotional, just hoping it stays this way.

jennkg3 · July 2014

With dd I was super emotional till she was like 4 months old ds not at all.....we will see....

LadyXaverian · July 2014

I am more emotional this time than I was with DD. I find myself tearing up at more random things.

Ugh! Same hubby? Don't ask me why about things because I'll kill you! Lol my DH is just like "you weren't like this the first time" I was like OHH NO YOU DIDNT! I didn't have two kids too run after the first time either! But I'm crying for everything too!

Beauxbaton · July 2014

I cried over everything yesterday. And the other day my husband called the crowns that I have (teeth, I had 2 root canals a week apart) my "not teeth" and I started crying because I didn't want all my teeth to fall out. And then everything on TV made me cry.

amandad715 · July 2014

Today I cried about an hour after I found out my cousin's husband accepted a job in Brazil. They live downtown Chicago now and it's not like we see them weekly. I was delayed bawling. Random.

longcat07 · July 2014

SO just laughs and gets me a tissue. lol

My ridiculously cute siamese cat did not come home last night. She's never spent the night outside before. We live on 15 acres of wooded mountain, so I was flipping out imagining every possible horrific scenario - she was eaten by a coyote, she accidentally hung herself by her collar, she was bitten by a snake, she ate a poisonous plant, and the lost goes on... Needless to say, I didn't get much sleep last night and I cried like a baby. DH woke me up early this morning by laying her in the bed with me! He never allows pets on the bed, so you know he really felt bad for me. I held her and cried for a good 30 minutes straight. Annnd I've cried pretty much every time I see her today. She's lost her outside privileges for a while.

Buttt, I'm also crying at everything on the internet and daytime television... I've had a feeling we're having a girl since the beginning. We'll see!

LovelyLips · July 2014

Every time I sneak into a baby shop to look at / fondle ickle bitty baby socks etc I get teared up. Was discussing with my 6yo DS about him picking a comforter teddy blankie thing like he had for his new sibling as a present when they arrive and I got weak and sniffly at the thought.
That's without the whinging at tv shows/ fb posts with cute animals. I always make sure I have tissues at the ready!

jennkg3 · July 2014

So to add to my already "sob" story. I signed dd up for dance classes in the fall and she starts preschool. I cried like all day about how big my baby is getting. She's three, I need to calm down. I'm just so emotional.

MahriM23 · July 2014

@Keberly91 where do you live? I wanna live on 15 acres of wooded mountains

so jealous! lol

nolansmom08 · July 2014

It was all I could do not to cry at work today after my CEO didn't like the way I handled something with a former employee. He wasn't mean, didn't yell, nothing like that, but I was so emotional the rest of the afternoon and then cried on my way home. Normally this would not have put me in tears.

Keberly91 · July 2014

@MahriM23 - Haha! We are just renting for the year for DH's first intern year as an Internal Medicine resident at Baptist Health System in Birmingham, AL. We got super lucky - the rent is actually pretty cheap compared to surrounding areas. We are technically not within city limits, so it's just considered Jefferson County. But, it's really close to Hoover! Next year we'll be in Knoxville, TN and we'll stay at least 4 years for DH to finish up his residency in Radiology. We'll buy a house there, so I doubt we'll be getting 15 acres! I'm def going to miss it here...

aremac · July 2014

I have been able to keep the crying in check (barely) at work so far, but last night I thought I didn't have any fresh cucumbers from the garden for the tzatziki sauce I was craving and I fully burst into big fat tears.

It was so ridiculous, and my poor SO was desperately trying to comfort me while I could barely articulate what was wrong - and why a cucumber was of any importance whatsoever.

It's my first pregnancy so everything is very new to me.

Does everyone feel so embarrassed after a crying jag?

Lanatir · July 2014

I almost cried today...

DH wanted to look at stuff in the mall and I was hungry. DH wanted to get Chick fil A from the food court, which is tolerable for me, but I probably would have gone for the Chinese over Chick fil A if DD ate Chinese... So we go to Chick fil A. They have no wraps and after we paid, they tell me they're actually out of the peach milkshake. NO, I DO NOT LIKE THE OTHER FLAVORS. So I drank an unpleasant chocolate milkshake with a mediocre salad... Ok, I lied. I let DD drink most of my milkshake because I dislike the chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and cookies and cream ones that much. I WANTED PEACH DANMMIT!

Once you actually feel like eating something during pregnancy, it's pretty cruel and unusual punishment for that food not to be available...

MLC1990 · July 2014

I bawled my eyes out for 15 minutes today. I work on a pediatric ward. In my defense I was caring for a terminal oncology kid.

I couldn't handle it anymore.

yes, a woman I went to hs with lost her little girl to cancer. The little girl captured the hearts of like the whole city maybe state even. I still see her Facebook entries and my heart just breaks. She actually passed christmas morning and for some reason I keep thinking and this christmas we are having a baby and she'll be missing hers. It just kills me.

ScienceMama · July 2014

My First Bloodwork Visit And We Heard A 7-9 Y/O Girl Crying Her Eyes Out As They Took Her Sample. The Entire Waiting Room Was Consoling Her From Afar. I Was Fighting The Tears. And I Sat In The Chair After Her And They Hadn't Wiped All The Tears Off Yet.

jennkg3 · July 2014

@ScienceMama‌ I just went and got mine drawn I was hoping to go without the kiddos when they called us back everyone kept staring at us. I said it's for me and the whole place took a collective sigh of relief. My daughter got it done like 6 months ago at 2 1/2 it was awful.

mommy5point0 · July 2014

I think I only actually cried with my boy. With the girls, I was just a cranky surly cow.

I has to put down my beloved rescue yellow lab at 12 years old 2 years ago. I adored that dog. Last week I saw a golden retriever with a white muzzle smiling and sticking his head out the passenger window of his car and burst into tears. Dh, ever so sweet and worried asked what was wrong. I said I missed my dog.

mommy5point0 · July 2014

Fatty and me

jonesparty7 · July 2014

Oh yeah.. I cried twice yesterday. Once while watching the movie Tammy (which was completely hilarious) and then trying on a maternity shirt - I seen myself in the mirror and cried because I looked like a cow.

longcat07 · July 2014

i just spent half the morning crying while trying to find a dentist that would take a new pediatric patient same-day so DS could get his teeth that are out of place looked at. and i melted down in the ER yesterday while we were waiting for DS to be seen by the doctor.

nolansmom08 · July 2014

I have another since this post is still going. We went to our local county fair yesterday and I cried walking through the animal barns knowing that all of the animals were headed directly for the butcher when leaving the fair. It's amazing I eat meat.

jennkg3 · July 2014

@longcat07 it seems you are having some rough days...I'm sorry

longcat07 · July 2014

@jennkg3 thanks! it's really not that big of a deal (although yesterday i was freaking out...my meltdown occurred after it started to look like everything was going to be ok, and DS had calmed down and was comfortable, and with the pressure off i just kind of fell apart, lol). finding a dentist this morning was frustrating and would have pissed me off normally, but i don't think it would have made me cry if i wasn't pregnant.

jennkg3 · July 2014

@HappyMonkey817‌ I wasn't with my son.

Lanatir · July 2014

@HappyMonkey817-- I wasn't at all with DD. This time I've only been emotional with food. I've been so sick (well, maybe regular pregnancy sick, but had no sickness with DD) so my food not being right just kills me.

Christina_Diane · July 2014

I cried reading a Toy Story 3 book to DS. I jut got all choked up when Andy gave Woody to Bonnie.

readyforround2 · July 2014

I balled my eyes out yesterday watching Harry Potter when Dobbie dies. My DH thought it was hilarious.

mellie86041 · July 2014

I'm much less of an emotional mess this pregnancy than I was with DD. Everything then made me either cry my eyes out or made me really angry... which then made me cry. It was a looooong 9 months for poor DH!

This time around, I'll still cry my eyes out every now and then. But it's always over something food-related.

I work on a pediatric oncology floor. It's been everything to not break down like every five minutes. The other day, my patient who has sores throughout her entire digestive tract was throwing up, and I had to leave the room "to get her meds for vomiting" so I wouldn't cry. The pain on her face was heartbreaking, and she stopped between every wretch to say "ow."

Also, the anniversary of the death of not only one of my most favorite (seriously AWESOME) kids, who also passed away on my watch, is coming up. I'm already feeling emotional about it. It's a lot of emotions. I'm still so sad about it, but it was a serious turning point in my career. It really sparked my passion for what I do, and on top of that, I met some amazing people (his family, who I can now call friends) through him. While my job breaks my heart, I seriously don't know how I've been so lucky to have the opportunity to do what I do and take care of such amazing kids... aaaand I'm crying again.

Kudos to you and others who do this. I can't even think about tit without getting sad, and its my biggest fear. Being around it all the time would only increase my anxiety. It's nice to know that if I'm ever in that position as a mom, that the nurses care that much.

MahriM23 · July 2014

Every ending of of every kids movie makes me cry. I cried crazy tears at the end of 101 dalmations yesterday (the non animated one) NOT when the puppies came back but at the very end when Anita starts to tell Roger that she's having another baby.

longcat07 · July 2014

aaaaaaand i cried today after i got kiddo to the dentist because he was getting upset and mistrustful of everyone there and refusing to let them take an x-ray and i didn't know what to do. i didn't get nearly this weepy with DS (although my temper was out of control). it's so embarrassing.

@jessa127 and @MLC1990 - you both are made of awesome. i seriously cannot imagine having such a heartbreaking job, and yet you do it with such dedication. simply amazing.

@longcat07‌ My job can be heartbreaking, but there are a lot of uneventful days, too, as well as good days. It's indescribable to see a kid who's been through hell and back receive the news that they're cancer free. I get to see some cool shit... the connections that the families make on the floor, the good deeds of everyday people, the soft spots of local celebrities and athletes, the compassion of my coworkers, and even the compassion of the kids toward each other. I get to see kids who could be feeling sorry for themselves choose to continue to be kids and continue to play. I get to see the impact that the kids have on the world. You could look at it like they're the ones benefitting from what I'm doing, but I can tell you that I benefit just as much, if not more, from what they do. I can confidently say that I have the best job ever.

still it's amazing!
