@Kaessi I have burnt my husband's grilled sandwiches before and it is an awful feeling so I feel ya. I haven't done it yet while pregnant, but there are no doubts that I would bawl. Even if we had more bread.
So I cried so many tears on the way home from work this AM because a patient of mine (who is 80) was telling me about how her MOTHER (98) died this winter and she's having a hard time. Ugh so many feels.
because everything.... EVERYTHING! I've been so much more emotional this week. Seriously though, my OB gave me a welcome bag (I just graduated from my RE so it was my first visit). There was a teeny tiny diaper in there... almost lost it in the waiting room of the lab.
Because I'm renting a dress for a wedding from Rent the Runway and since the last time I rented I was a size 4, it auto populated with that size when I picked a dress. Yeah, that would fit like, one leg right now. Then I teared up more because I felt guilty because I'm growing a human and shouldn't worry about my size.

@MRSCORKER don't feel guilty. My SO has to remind every day that I'm not fat, just ya know... MAKING TWINS. Lol! I feel ya.
I know, DH keeps saying the same thing but I can tell I've gained in my face, hips, butt, etc. It is what it is I guess. Wah. Pitty, party of 1.
Pity party of two. I tried on "too small" maternity pants yesterday and had a meltdown. An angry one.
Yes! I ordered maternity pants for work and just got my normal size. They are SO TIGHT in the thighs. I just threw them on the floor of the closet and walked away. They're still there.

My mom took me maternity clothes shopping over the weekend and we went to Motherhood. All of their shirts were tight in my belly and super big on top. Thanks for reminding me that my boobs never got the memo to grow! I left so frustrated.
The opening of Fuller House gets me every. time. Something about watching the pictures of everybody when they were small and now they're all grown up and having kids, and I'm grown up an having a kid now too . . . the nostalgia and recognition of time passing by hits me hard.

Make it 3. Hips/butt/thighs are rapidly expanding & I just feel like I look gross. DH has been really sweet & tells me I look beautiful every day, but I still feel like a giant blow fish. And yes, ordered normal size maternity pants from GAP and the thighs are oh-so tight, ugh. Oh & I wore a "flowy" dress this weekend that totally emphasized that it seems I now have saddlebags. With cellulite.

This is one of the good things about being fat -- these sorts of body changes and insecurities are nothing new for me, and I get to switch from worrying I look pregnant to hoping I do!
My pregnant self isn't crying about clothes, although these fucking control top tights are going in the trash as soon as I take them off, but last night my toddler had an epic middle-of-night meltdown, and my husband kindly sat with him so I could sleep. Instead of sleeping, I lay in bed for 45 minutes bawling about 1) how unhappy my little boy was, 2) how furious I was about not getting to sleep, and 3) how sweet my husband was.

I have a feeling I'm going to have the same problem. I was totally looking forward to my boobs growing.. And they haven't. It's a bummer.
Because my dog jumped on the bed this morning and stepped right on my uterus. I've already been really emotional this week, and now I have to figure out how to stop crying.
Watched a new show on TL C called Two in a Million and e first epi was with 2 little boys... All the feels
Oh, I teared up just watching the commercial for it!
omg.. me too. So, because I'm a glutton for punishment, I recorded it. Cried the whole episode (seriously, the whole thing) because that little boy with the blonde hair was just so damn excited and happy to meet his "new best buddy."
this is kind of legitimate but I cried while holding/ thinking about the newest baby brought to the baby home where I work. His mom "went under" (anesthesia) for a c-section and never woke up again....

That is heartbreaking.
I cried the other day in the waiting room of my doctor's office looking through the packet/pamphlet for the hospital I plan to deliver at. Last time I was there was under horrible circumstances and going through the packet I just kept thinking "This is going to happen! I am going to be there for a happy occasion and get to partake in all of the classes and happy stuff!"
Its super silly but I cried today about not getting on Ellen's Mothers Day show. When I found out that the show was booked and I didn't get a spot I couldn't help it and I started crying at work.
TW FI didn't get as excited as me about the first outfit we bought for our baby. When I showed it to him, he said that we aren't out of the woods yet considering my history of miscarriage and stillbirth. He soon apologized which made me cry that much more
Yesterday, one of my officemates got a phone call with really good news. I like him and wish him well, but we're not close and I wouldn't usually be moved to tears by his happiness. USUALLY.
@MRSCORKERJulia70286 being pregnant has def made things harder to deal with. I mean many of the kids we care for have horrible unfortunately beginnings but I think I was able to distance myself a bit, not being a mother, and now it's like all the tears, all the time.
@AshleyGemini24 MH does similar things...when I talk about some pregnancy stuff (like weird pregnancy facts, size of the baby) he reminds me not to get "obsessed." It def can be upsetting and feel like he's raining on your mini parade but I try not to let it upset me (and it def doesn't change my constant Bumping and secret Doppler binges hehe) but to think that it's because he doesn't have a better way to deal with his own insecurity and fears about losing this one too. It's not us, it's them
I cried watching Riddick when they shot his alien dog. I've never had such strong feelings about that stupidass movie or a computer generated animal.
I cried this morning because FI and I both wanted sex but we are terrified to do so, because of the SCH. Then when we very very carefully DTD, I cried because we DTD. Later I cried because "no reason".
I read on another thread that your nose grows during pregnancy (?!?!?!) so I asked DH if he thought my nose was bigger and he said yes, he could definitely tell. He said he noticed it in recent pictures and only when I started crying did he break into hysterical laughter and tell me he was kidding. I was crying huge crocodile tears and asking DH why he got to stay the same while I turn into a water buffalo.

Hubby and I had sex tonight. We've fooled around a couple times since our BFP and most of those times ended with him slipping it in really quick but being too worked up to last. Well today was the first time since getting pregnant that we planned it and really went for it.
It was underwhelming. He didn't want to get on top of me so he got behind me and I'm glad. I probably didn't look very happy. I just couldn't stop wondering if we should really be doing this. I was given the OK, but I just couldn't get into it.
He passed out right after and I immediately started sobbing.
@AshleyGemini24 and @krzyriver Wasnt it nice when DTD was just that and not an emotional roller coaster?! I cried last night because I wanted to DTD and as mentioned in another post I've been feeling shut out, so when my FI just went to sleep instead I felt like such a reject. My sex drive has suddenly gone from "don't come near me" to "I'm a porn star in my own mind lets do this!"
I just watched this video from this mom who had twins prematurely at 26(?) weeks and they told her one was dead. And then she put him on her chest and did skin to skin and he revived and both the twins are healthy and 5 years old now.
