Burst into tears while talking with my husband about where the new babe will be if it's a boy. And the thought of making my oldest have to share a room after all the hype I had to do about him getting his own room so he would get excited about moving made me feel sad and guilty.
I read a book where a wife cheated on her husband and the husband had to explain to his 6 year old daughter why Mommy couldn't just say she's sorry and come back. Hubby came home from work to find me bawling because I didn't want to have to explain anything like that to our baby. (For the record, hubby is wonderful and neither of us has any intention of cheating on the other.)
@Swiftlet I’ve been craving Arby’s ever since I read your post 😂 it initially stuck with me because I kept thinking about the pep talk the husband must have had to give himself in the driveway and to go back inside the house, but eventually all I could think about was curly fries and cheese sauce.
I just started crying thinking about how unadultlike I feel. Maybe its slight envy of friends on facebook, but enough of them are buying/building new homes, have been married for forever, have several kids....I'm a couple months shy of 29 and just got married, living in a "cheap" 1 bedroom apartment, 1st pregnancy. Feeling kind of like a failure and scared out of my wits with all the health issues I'm facing with this pregnancy. Dont get me wrong, I'm so blessed by everything I have in life....I just want a better life for my husband and baby! Ugh....

Don’t feel bad! Facebook showcases the best parts of everyone’s lives. It’s not real . If it makes you feel any better, I grew up in the south and sooo many people I knew got married before 25. I didn’t get married till 30 - my grandma was quick to remind me I wasn’t getting any younger lol - and bought our house at 31. I’m currently 34 and just now on my first pregnancy!:) I understand the feeling. And I hope your health issues get better!
I spent too much time making a crockpot dinner for DH & DS and didn't have time to make a breakfast for me. So I sobbed because I have to take care of everyone else and no one takes care of me.
@craftywitch I feel you on that! My husband usually gets to eat a hot meal while I get the kids good ready and feed my youngest And then I can finally eat!
One of my guilty pleasure is The Bachelor/ette and a podcast done by a blogger who spoils the franchise, Reality Steve. He did a podcast this week where a domestic violence survivor shared her story (nothing at all to do with the show). I was trying so hard not to bawl.
My 3 year old has been so sassy all day to me. She’s had a smart comment about everything or has simply mimicked me. She’s hit, pinched, kicked, and bit me as well. I’ve calmly taken things away from her all day long based on her behavior. I just put her in bed and she got up not even five seconds later telling me that she’s not going to bed and just generally being a sasshole. So what did I do? To my own horror I burst into tears! She’s a shark and smelled blood. So she started laughing at me for crying. I’m raising Regina George.
@daffodil_shoe that makes me feel a little better, but I’m sorry you’re also going through it. I’m not really sure why two year olds get such a bad rap. In my experience three is much worse. At least, I’m hoping it’s just the age and not her personality 🤞
@doodleoodle No shame in crying over 3yos- they are BRUTAL! Mine has taken up telling me "no one cares" and making me feel stupid. Seriously? Stop bullying your parents or I'm throwing away your toys!
@craftywitch omg! Mine does something similar. I’ll say something that I think they will be excited about like, “Who wants to help mommy make chocolate chip pancakes?” And she’ll not even look up from her toys and say, “no one!”
Our cat never cuddles me. She's a daddy's girl through and through. But she decided to curl up in my arms while I play on the computer for a few minutes and I cried hah.
@sassypants2010 yeah I knew pets have that sense. It just made me so happy! Lol The other night she was sitting on my stomach in bed and kneading it. I was fine with that until she licked my belly button unexpectedly! Haha
@daffodil_shoe@craftywitch@doodleoodle noooooo! I’ve been a little MIA this past couple days so I’m just now catching up. My (just turned) 2 year old daughter has been a complete terror this week. It gets worse?!?
@lanie1000 Two year olds are difficult because it’s hard for them to communicate and they get frustrated, but it turns out that living in blissful ignorance of what they think of you is much better for everyone.
Anybody not crying at all? If anything, I think pregnancy is making me more mellow.

@rikiteacup la tee freakin da 😂 I’m so jealous. I am a mess. I caught my eyes starting to well up today and couldn’t think of a single reason as to why that was happening.
@doodleoodle I am not surprised. I usually don't cry much. The only thing that makes me cry instantly is if an authority figure is mad/disappointed at me. Then I can't control it. I am only 25% through this pregnancy. A lot can change!

I figured I wouldn’t be much of a crier, especially since I’ve made it to just about 14 weeks without any weird emotions. However, I just started sobbing in my pantry because I’m so hungry but nothing sounds good for dinner. Not just teary eyes, full on ugly cry with the snot coming out of my nose and everything. My hubs came in from taking the dog out and had no idea what was wrong 😭
@wheresjam47 hugs ❤️ my oldest son started kindergarten this time last year. I was a mess. It’s definitely an adjustment for the whole family. Hang in there! It’s really neat to watch them change and grow when they start school 😊
@craftywitch i have been singing that song for days. But I always look the part where he says "and though im nobody's poet, I thought it wasnt half had." I love that song but a lot of people dont realize its about two people trying to cheat and finding each other.
This is going to sound minor in comparison to a lot of yours but I just dropped all my m&ms on the ground 😤 For a pregnant woman, this is a catastrophe! lol
I took my 2 year old daughter to a Wiggles concert. I’ve never understood people that get emotional at concerts, but my eyes were definitely teary. Luckily my pride didn’t let any tears fall. I think I was just overcome with emotion that she was seeing her first live performance of songs we play all the time at home.
New med students were matriculating today at the campus I work for. Beautiful, accomplished, young people with glowing proud families being all idealistic about the future and saying their doctor vows! *SOBS* They were all so beautiful and proud in their new little white coats while being awarded their first stethoscopes!
I had the paint store do a color match for paint because I want my kitchen to be a soft cream. Started painting and it just looks white, and I hate white walls 😭

Omg I always cry at graduations! Just the song can set me off lol
Found the photo album from when my parents were expecting me and all my newborn photos and I just sat on the floor flipping through it and sobbing like a baby. Within about two pages I was in full tears😭 I guess it just made me think about my hubs and me, and all that we’re gonna experience together in the next year with our baby girl💗
