Baby blues- stupidest thing to make you cry

My DD is 1 week old today, day 4 and day 6 I had two episodes of uncontrollable crying- the first initiated when melody wasn't fired on the apprentice, the second when I put too much salt on my chips. Has any one else had something completely trivial set them off or am I just losing the plot?!

The RSPCA adverts and anything vaguely sad in Eastenders did it for me! Had to turn over as soon as RSPCA logo came on.

The RSPCA adverts used to make me cry before I was even preggers! Think I am just a soft touch!

The RSPCA advert with the dead ginger kitten made me cry so much I would hyperventilate..... I dislike cats intensely. Hmm

PIL came to visit for the day when DD2 was 5 days old, a year ago today, come to think of it!!!

I was feeling so terribly guilty about poor DD1 having to adjust to a sibling and PIL spent the whole day playing with her and I barely got to see her. After PIL left I cried and cried as I thought DD1 was lost to me forever Blush

Fast forward 12 months and I would happily pay someone to take her away some days Grin Grin

I think DS was about a week old when a few memorable crying episodes as there was no ketchup left/ my mum was going to be half hour late/ I couldn't poo.

Haha, it's silly isn't it. I'm sure I will laugh about it soon

With DD it was when MiL came to visit (DD ~8 days old?) - she wanted to be 'helpful' and tidy up - but she went through my house and started throwing my stuff away Shock (And I'm not talking rubbish, I'm talking things like 'cutlery'!)

Since the start of this pregnancy I am physically incapable of watching adverts for The Brooke donkey charity without weeping for half an hour. Can't WAIT to see what day-5-ish has in store for me this time... Hmm
