I'm 18 weeks today, and don't know if it's some sort of hormonal increase or what. But this last week I have found myself getting hurt feelings over things I normally wouldn't even think 2 seconds on, and I WEEP whem it happens! Not just cry a little, but bawl my eyes out like someone I love just died.

It's getting so annoying. Yesterday OH and I were talking about a game he was playing on the PS3, and I asked a question, and he said something like "Don't be silly" and rolled his eyes, and that was enough! I ran off the to bedroom and cried into the pillow for about 20 minutes. For an hour or so afterwards I still felt like I could cry easily. Then last night we were play wrestling gently, and I bumped the side of his head with my elbow so he did it back, and that set me off! GAH! It's like something we have always done for years, play wrestle.

95% of the time I am my usual happy self, it's just these episodes driving me nuts.

My grandmas dog died of cancer on Saturday and I cried ALL DAY, it's irrational, I hate it!

Am I alone? :nope:
 
You're not alone at all! I'm exactly the same, it is annoying.. and somewhat embarassing sometimes! Hope it calms down a bit at some point lol
 
Not alone at all, I posted something like this a few weeks ago LOL. I am in a sleepy and eating phase at the mo - going through cycles. xx
 
I was like this with all of my first three pregnancies, I found it wore off towards the end of the second tri.
I don't know if it is something to do with having a girl, as I haven't been nearly as bad this time and I am having my first boy.

Seriously though, don't beat yourself up over it, it is a little embarassing but not to be helped, I used to bawl over the slightest thing, if we ran out of milk or tea even!
 
you're not alone at all!! my OH read this and looked right at me haha. i cry over EVERYTHING! it's really annoying. but hopefully it'll be over with soon!
 
I bawled because my husband didn't wash the spuds enough before cooking them! I then ate spaghetti hoops on toast for dinner instead of the spuds all the while throwing him 'evils'. haha. I guess it must be hormones..
 
Aww thanks everyone!

Not that I am glad you guys are getting upset easily too, but glad I am not alone. My OH threatened to call his mother and ask if I was being neurotic! Last thing I need is the MIL telling me how perfect she was through pregnancy and how there must be something wrong with me.

I'm going to show this thread to OH so he can hopefully be patient and understanding.
 
Im glad Im not alone. I am crying at EVERYTHING just lately. I cried at the words in fathers day cards in clintons. I cried at the shop over the road when I couldnt find the calippos in the freezer. I cried when my huband smiled at me earlier today. I cried when England scored, when I ran out of chewing gum and when DH told me the shop had ran out of crunchy nut cornflakes. Im a propper tit just lately, I bawled my eyes out at shutter island when we watched that the other day!!

DH dosent call it crying anymore, he says my eyes have permanant leaks and i'll go rusty if I dont stop! But he's very supportive though.

Its all perfectly normal :) xxx
 
Yep me too, I cry at everything at the moment. Was never like this with the boys though.
 
:wacko: Well I think we can all join the wacko club then. :lol:

I haven't stopped being like that since I had my daughter. I have been a thoroughly over-emotional wreck of a woman, and 4 years and one baby on, and another on the way.. It's got no better :lol:

I cry when I laugh too much - Have done for years, and not just a few tears, they would be okay, but huge bloody great big wracking sobs like I've just had the worst news ever. :wacko:
In the old days they would have been slapping me in the face for hysterics!

I also cry at everything else - I have to not speak to people sometimes as the conversation will have made me emotional. No idea why, like the other poster, I was holding back the tears all the way through the England match yesterday, I couldn't talk about it afterwards..

I get teary when my sons say something to me and it makes me think how grown up they are getting.. I cry when I need to go to the shop, I cry when there is a need for washing up liquid, or my OH has to go out for something, the list is endless. I can't sing along to songs I like either, even really upbeat ones as they make me cry.. Anything and everything, especially inappropriate things, I cry, or well up and have to leave the room.. I have no chance whatsoever of going to see a live comedian, because I get so far into the laughing and it sets me off.. I say 'I cry' But I have got to the point where I know if something is goin to get me going, the tears are there but held in. I don't know if this helps or hinders me really, but when they really need to come out they do :wacko:

It's a bit rubbish really, but I'm on my 4th year of this and the way I look at it, is that it's natural - For me. Crazy, but natural! :lol:
 
You're definitely not alone!!!! It's so depressing :( I literally feel SO sorry for myself hahaha xxx
