Why my Pregnant Self is Crying 9/22

starphish18 · September 2016

I don't think we've had one of these yet! Let's hear about the tears.

starphish18 · September 2016

Last week, I watched "Me Before You" on a plane ride. Cried for the last 30 minutes straight. I was so glad the lights were down. Daenerys is my fav

That commercial where the baby likes lions but not the dog so they order a lion costume for the dog. Tears every.single.time.

Kipperoo · September 2016

Definitely teared up while watching "This Is Us" last night...and I am not generally an emotional person. Anything with babies gets me these days!

vrj0522 · September 2016

Weirdest thing. I am not crying. I feel like ever since I got pregnant the first time, the water works became open and I became this crying mess, and it gets worse when I'm pregnant. Except this time. I'm not sure I've even cried once. So strange.

pshaortao · September 2016

I feel like I'm more emotional but no water work. Unless there's bad things happening to other babies (or my own) then I'll sob up a lake. But I can get grumpy as hell. DH better watch out.

CajunSnowWhite89 · September 2016

I'm the same as @vrj0522 I used to cry all the time watching TV. Anytime there was a wedding special on anything I would cry. It's still early, but I've watched things that would have made me cry before being pregnant and I didn't cry. Maybe it's a sign I'll be more grumpy than weepy while I'm pregnant. Or maybe it's still too early and I'll be a crying mess in two weeks lol.

Um, this might be lame, but I got a little emotional when I found out on Pottermore that my patronus is a wolf. The choices made me feel lonely.

Squirtgun · September 2016

Daughter is OBSESSED with Knuffle Bunny (by Mo Willems). Anyway, I cannot get through the end of Knuffle Bunny Free without crying. It's embarrassing.

CajunSnowWhite89 · September 2016

@arels483 Mine was a snake

eta: it didn't let my emoji stay, but it was a very upset emoji lol. I was not pleased.

Jkp7749 · September 2016

I played the walking dead video game with my husband and CRIED MY EYES OUT!

jatwal128 · September 2016

@flychick that commercial gets me every time. This may be better for the UO thread, but i also see that commercial and think wtf people? That dog has been around longer than the baby, don't make him sit out of the room just because the kid starts to fuss! He can get over it, let the dog be a part of the family!

...that probably seems crazy, but i like my dog more than most people, so there's that.

SaVi925 · September 2016

DS spilled orange juice this morning...
DH gave the kids a bath and I cried happy tears that he is such a good partner for taking some of the load off of me while I feel crappy.
And I cried this morning for absolutely no logical reason I could think of.

@jatwal128 High 5 because that's how I feel!

starphish18 · September 2016

@jatwal128 @mrsrep123 Yeeees, dogs are definitely the best

SP128 · September 2016

I sobbed last week when I thought about hearing the baby's heartbeat for the first time. The Amazon baby/lion commercial gets me too. I also watched This is Us last night and got teary eyed. A couple of weeks before I found out I was pregnant I saw cute baby clothes on final clearance at Marshalls. I touched a cute dress and I got teary eyed and had to reign it in.

ShadeofGreen816 · September 2016

@jatwal128 @starphish18 @mrsrep123 Count me in on the dog>people train. If my LO is allergic to dogs they'll be getting allergy shots bc my puppy is staying!!

CherryBananas · September 2016

I cried today when my patient was running late and I realized I would have to push back my lunch by 15 minutes

m3ganmc · September 2016

We went to a professional football game and I didn't realized they we're following the clear bag policy. I cried when they told me I couldn't bring my daughters diaper bag in. One of the bag checkers asked me why I was crying and I couldn't even say anything. But I was allowed to bring the diaper bag

I felt ridiculous

Me too! Anything with dogs gets me... I watched a video on facebook today of three dogs(2 of them Pugs, my FAVS) and they each had a plate with a piece of bday cake front of them. Then the big dog ate all of the Pugs cake! I felt so bad for them lol

Jkp7749 · September 2016

@m3ganmc that is hilarious! I can't imagine what the bag checker was thinking lol.

I cried at dinner bc my husband wouldn't stop taking about politics. Then I kept crying because I felt ridiculous.

Jens_Hoes · September 2016

I listen to pandora when I'm in the shower. The other day while I was in there my wedding first dance song came one (Adele "Make you feel my love" and I got overwhelmed with joy about DH and then the thought of having a baby...
I was singing the words and sobbing... No one was home but I was even embarrassed

starphish18 · September 2016

@CherryBananas That definitely would have made me cry, too. I get really emotional when I'm hungry!

flychick-2 · September 2016

@jatwal128 yes I think the same thing! I get so sad that they're prioritizing the baby over the dog. But then I get such happy tears when the baby reaches for the dog.

doxiemoxie212 · September 2016

Anyone else not feel like crying at all and instead feel very rage-y?

ShadeofGreen816 · September 2016

@doxiemoxie212 I've been both! I have been a terrible wife this week. I feel very self absorbed. I think once it's more "real" feeling and I'll be out of the woods a little more I'll stop thinking about it so much. I swear MH keeps forgetting. I can't really blame him, it sometimes doesn't feel real to me

@cherrybananas and @starphish18 I seriously am like that Snicker's commercial when I'm hungry... I turn into an entirely different person. Lol

erinh2005 · September 2016

Was crying in the car yesterday at the memory of my mom and I sharing an egg roll at the mall when I was like 5.

SummerBrooke13 · September 2016

@FlyChick I had never seen that commercial so I googled it. How adorable?!?
I have hormonal cried a few times...the first was last week when one of my frequent patients died and I had to see her, her family, and her husband after the fact...I'm usually real good at not crying at work, I was able to keep it at just watery eyes though! (I'm an EMT)

Also, I cried a few days ago, this one is silly... I went all out and made a huge Chinese food spread for dinner. And I cried because my husband didn't like the stir fry. Which was all we had left over after we ate so he didn't have anything to take to work the next day, which would mean he would have to eat cafeteria food (he works at a prison). So I cried because I hate when he doesn't have food to take to work and he wouldn't let me make anything else for him. So I cried because I'm a ridiculous hormone machine, lol

Being emotional and sore breasts are the only symptoms I have right now since the pelvic pain went away, so I can't complain too much!

mrsrep123 · September 2016

Hormonally cried for the first time this morning... Some commercial came on... A father trying to feed his little girl then (fast forward) the daughter trying to feed her father. My face immediately shrunk up and I started crying with my DS sitting in my lap. DH consoled me a bit and distracted DS while my tears flowed. He thought I was crying about my dad, who died 10 years ago. That then made me cry more. He even said I made him teary eyed. :'(

mcvgal · September 2016

We were walking around Lowe's yesterday with both boys in the "car" cart. DS1 started coughing really bad and DS2 reached over to pat his chest and help big bro out. I just teared up seeing how much they watch out for each other.

clebl24 · September 2016

I'm from Louisiana and my area experienced unprecedented flooding last month. ESPN did a special on a local high school football team and I cried like a baby.

My DH didn't truly know what hangry was until he met me

reedstina · September 2016

So, I never watched Gossip Girl when it was popular but my sister said I should watch it and I do pretty much every episode especially when Dan is such a good older brother to Jenni and I just think of how I want my toddler to be with this baby.

Also, had a full on meltdown freak-out crying late last night because my diclegis for morning sickness was missing for 10 minutes. I was a wreck until I found it.

And now I'm crying at your story of you crying... (lost my dad a year and a half ago, but also hormones).
