My son is two and I am still very weepy at anything to do with sad children. I’ve just had to stop watching the Doctor Sleep movie after enjoying the book some years ago because an early scene where the main character is unkind to a neglected toddler made me cry uncontrollably. I am still breastfeeding overnight so perhaps my hormones are still skew whiff. I have suffered from depression and anxiety for some years but I’m not normally weepy like this! Is it normal to find anything sad to do with children desperately upsetting once you’ve got one of your own?! Any advice gratefully received
