Crying Like a Lunatic

Has anyone else's pregnancy hormones just made them hysterically cry over nothing?
Lying in bed at around 11 at night with a mounting feeling of anxiety until I just started crying and crying, my poor partner woke up and did his best to comfort me, but how can you actually comfort a lunatic who doesn't even know why they're crying?
Seems to be fading away now. I'm 20 weeks, and have had what feels like every pregnancy symptom possible except the crazy mood swings! Guess I didn't get lucky and miss out on that one after all!
If I tried to pinpoint anything that bothered me today I can only place my finger on one thing.
I posted an announcement today for my pregnancy (tagged my partner) and among all the congratulations my partner's ex posted congratulating him, and for some reason it just rubbed me the wrong way which is ridiculous! I should be glad he's a nice enough person to be friends with an old ex from literally years ago. But I just felt like, there's a time and a place for her to prove how much of a totally cool and laid back ex she is, and on my picture announcing my pregnancy isn't it!
And writing that down makes me realise how stupid I am to be bothered at all. How dare this woman be nice! Grin God how will and unreasonable hormones can make you!
And just like that, the need to hysterically cry is gone.
Can anyone else share stories of feeling like they are losing their mind due to hormones so I feel less like a loon?

It will pass I promise I was like that week 20-25. Crying and low for no reason, everything set me off. I even burst in to tears twice at work (so embarassing) I'm just about to hit the third trimester and and starting to feel a little bit more sane 😅 my poor DH

This gives me hope that I’m not just a miserable cow. I’m 22 weeks and I’ve been feeling very emotional and less able to cope with normal challenges. Throw in a stressful house move and a teething toddler and I’m crying a lot at the moment....
