I was watching the final episode of a comedy sketch show and it made me cry (as silly as it sounds ) What was the last thing to make you cry? Xxxx

Tonights call the midwife

In my defence I'm 9 weeks pregnant and find out tomorrow at a scan if I've finally made it past 8 weeks after 5 years and 5 miscarriages. I'm not holding out much hope but here's to my miracle happening.

Sitting in the car park waiting for ds1 football match to start this morning listening to Magic FM and Come on Eileen came on

It reminded me so much of my nan who passed away last week and I just burst into tears, I think because I wasn’t expecting it iyswim

Today, curled in a ball on my sofa. Feeling overwhelmed and sad with too much stuff going on in my life. Dumped by my stbxh again, possible autism diagnosis for my dd, family funeral tomorrow that’s caused huge feuds, lack of money, spiralling weight gain and generally feeling crap about myself.

I've just been crying at Call the midwife too. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Posting on that thread about the meanest thing anyone's ever said to you. Gave me a blast of bleak sadness I hadn't felt in years.

Watching the end of La Mante.

I shed a tear about an hour ago when I was stroking my dog, she's got cancer and hasn't got long left, the vet said weeks on wed, she's only 9 in May.

KTCluck · 04/02/2018 21:18

Last night, due to frustration and sheer exhaustion because DD just wouldn't go to sleep. Then again about half an hour later when I looked down at her peaceful little face as she snored away. I felt so guilty for feeling that way when she is full of cold and just wanted cuddles, and I realised that it won't be long before she won't be falling asleep in my arms any more Sad

latara23 · 04/02/2018 21:19

Thinking about my lovely cat who has to be put to sleep tomorrow, so sad

LinoleumBlownapart · 04/02/2018 21:21

I cried at a funeral last week, a 13 year old boy I taught and who was in the year between my two lost his fight with leukaemia after getting a UTI, he was only diagnosed 3 months ago. His mother died a few years ago and his father said at his funeral that he was with her now Sad

When I was in mid-conversation with my DH and he picked up a packet of Mini Eggs and walked out of the kitchen and into the sitting room, closing the door behind him.

I’m 34 weeks pregnant, so get very hormonal at the best of times, but I’d been on my feet for hours making his Birthday cake, and preparing and cooking his Birthday food, and so I just burst into tears and started screaming at the top of my voice that I just can’t take anymore.

Leaving my hysterical 4 year old at nursery on Friday. Dreading the same tomorrow!

bettydraper31 · 04/02/2018 21:24

KTCluck this was mine too. I felt just awful Sad

RefuseTheLies · 04/02/2018 21:24

My mum died very suddenly and totally out of the blue almost two years ago. She had only just turned 60. I still cry most days for her.

A friend who is a graphic designer was at my DS school to take photos for the new prospectus.
She said that when he was shooting DS class that DS was so eager to learn,hands up to answer every question and is a leader in his class.(Boys and girls are taught separately so there are only 10 boys in his class)
I felt I could burst with pride and with that cake the happy tears.

Ellybellyboo · 04/02/2018 21:31

A week or so ago.

It was my birthday.

My grandmother always used to call me at about 7am to wish me happy birthday and I’d have a light hearted grumble about calling so early

She died a few months ago so this year I didn’t get a call at all

Chesntoots · 04/02/2018 21:39

When I read the 80s time machine thread...brought back memories of people that aren't here any more. But it also made me smile...

Zubrowka · 04/02/2018 21:41

My husband cheated on me with my best friend last year. Yesterday I discovered messages between them from very recently calling me a 'fucking moron' as my lodger has just moved out and I need help paying for the house HE ALSO OWNS HALF OF. We've spilt up obviously but are having to keep it civil as we can't sell the house and I cant afford to buy him out yet.

Months later and just when I thought I was feeling better... those texts fucking hurt and I've cried on and off all day today. Pathetic!!

DrFoxtrot · 04/02/2018 21:43

My boyfriend dumped me last week by text while I was ill with flu Angry

hungryradish · 04/02/2018 21:44

Still grieving. It's been a few months & you have to get on with life but multiple times a day it hits me full on - so sad.

blueshoes · 04/02/2018 21:44

A picture in the news of a mother cradling her young adult son as he lay unconscious in hospital with tubes and wires all over, after having been attacked. Her grief was so raw. He did not make it.

Call the Midwife - Sunday night standard position

CanIhavedessertfirst · 04/02/2018 21:48

I read 'can't you sleep little bear' to my kids tonight - a book my nan used to read to me - by the end I was a snotty, teary mess!

sortingmyselfoutslowly · 04/02/2018 21:50

I cried at work this week out of frustration. My lovely colleague was very supportive and gave me a hug. Crying made me feel better.
