Hi all, anyone else feeling overly emotional? I'm in my 8th week and I'm so all over the place crying in the morning laughing in the evening. Trying to keep it together in work! It has only been the last 4 or 5 days but it's driving me nuts! Never had issues with my mental Heath before but I just don't feel like myself. Is this normal? Confused

It's completely normal. I'm 9 weeks and I cried because the Chinese take away was closed and i wanted bbq sauce! It does pass. It's just your hormones xx

Thanks a million! Nice to know I'm not the only one. Nearly cried in the office because a meeting was cancelled. So annoying Blush

I’m 29 weeks. I’ve cried over so many ridiculous things, including the amazon advert with the dog and the new baby, spilling a bottle of wine, thinking my dp wanted to cancel our wedding (he’d said nothing even resembling that), something I heard on the radio, my printer not working.... the list is endless. Before I got pregnant I wouldn’t have considered myself overly emotional, now I’m a wreck!

Seems a long time ago now but I remember crying on the tube at a few weeks pregnant because Terry Wogan was retiring. Someone asked if I was ok and I had to just say I'd had some bad news because saying 'I'm crying because Terry Wogan has retired' seemed ridiculous. I never even liked Terry Wogan much.

If I wasn't at work I'd be crying now. Last night I watched a programme about a donkey with an eye infection and cried for 10 minutes.

I’m 22w and cry daily over something usually stupid lol... hormones are no joke! Yesterday I cried as I really wanted rice crispies but the milk was starting to turn and I couldn’t be bothered to go out for some fresh milk. So I cried instead. Ugh.

@HebeMumsnet

Terry Wogan died when I was in my first trimester - holy shit I absolutely sobbed for days. It’s not even like I was a mega fan or anything Shock

I cried - properly ugly sobs - every time the Lloyds advert came on when I was pregnant with DD.

I'm 9 weeks now and am dreading the Christmas ads!

Im almost 17w and still suffering with this, but it is starting to calm down a bit more now.

I cried at Geordie Shore in the early stages, and can't quite figure out what would be emotional on that show.

Funny really, the things that set us pregnant women off!!

I didn't know I was pregnant at the time and I don't normally cry about films, but I watched Lion and I must have got through half a box of tissues. About a week later I took a test and it was positive!

Yup. Balled my eyes out after a Sainsburys shop because someone parked close to my car meaning I had to pack the bags into my non-preferred side of the car?!?

I cried last week because the kebab shop man put chilli sauce on my kebab instead of garlic. Grin I was gutted at the time.
