Why do I cry at everything?!

Pre-DD, I was known as the robot. Even in the most emotional of situations, I was pretty stoic - I found things sad, but never ever to the point of crying about it.

Anyway, DD is turning 3 next month (I’m 32), and I cry at everything. Just watched Tabby McTat, cried. Cried 4 times watching Lilo and Stitch. Nice review from preschool? Off I go again. It’s like I can’t control it and it’s so frustrating. Is it a hormone thing? Does it ever get back under control?

Sounds like it's hormones. When was the last time you had blood tests as it could be something like low vitamin d.

I feel your pain! I cry at everything too. Even adverts on the TV. My kids laugh at me but I just can’t help it! Currently sat here crying because my DD has driven herself to work (about a 15/20 minute drive) for the first time since she passed her driving test. And then I’ll cry later when I know she’s driving back and I’ll probably cry (with proudness) when she walks through the door!
So for me, it definitely hasn’t got better over the years!
