I’m 11 weeks pregnant and crying over everything . I’m overly emotional , I seen a video on tiktok of a dog being adopted and sobbed uncontrollably for hours . Today I went to a funday with my niece and it was full of elderly just sitting all together with their tea , I also sobbed 😭 anyone else wanna share why they cried ?? Is it normal to be this emotional ?? I need a good read and laugh !

Cried in the drive thru because McDonald's had stopped serving all day breakfast. I just wanted my bacon and egg muffin

My husband carved a face into a potato as he was cooking to make me smile. I cried because it was so sweet of him to try and cheer me up. Also the meerkat adverts where they lost uncle Sergei 😢

I can't tell if it's any different to normal really but I get teary when I hear certain songs (and not sad songs but just songs that are significant to me).
I was watching a TT of a cat who a woman had witnessed get hit by a car, she then went on to adopt it. I suppose that's enough to make most people feel teary though!

When I was pregnant with DS (1997/8) there was a TV ad for soup and the man eating the soup was so happy it used to make me cry!
One more serious reason for crying - I found out I was pregnant on the day of Princess Diana’s funeral and was sobbing uncontrollably throughout the TV coverage, DH was looking at me saying are you pregnant and went and bought a test!

One day, they didn't have any custard tarts in the local bakery. Sobbed my heart out all the way home...

Just cried because the next muslin out of the draw was my favourite muslin. It’s so soft. It’s been a long day.

I cried during pregnancy when I went to buy a stamp at the post office at 9pm at night and it was closed. My husband told me it would be closed 🤣🤣🤣

i love coming back to this thread . I’ve actually got tears reading these 🤣😭 I cried last night when the warm weather re appeared because I had just got my pumpkin candles for the cold season 😢 oh and my partner farted in his sleep so loud last night it woke me up and I looked at him with rage that he’s stunk out the room and that he’s snoring and sleeping peacefully while I’m overheating and pregnant and now having to be in a warm room with his fart smell with a heightened sense of smell 😑

i defrosted my frozen chicken ready to cook for dinner. But it stunk so I couldn’t even use it. Cried my eyes out lol

I couldn’t get the icecream out of the icecream tub 😂 DH came to help and then said it was because I was using a teaspoon and then I cried more because I was using the wrong spoon 😂

I cried on the maternity ward because my baby was the only one NOT crying??

Oh I got upset in TKMaxx because they have all the autumn spiced candles that I love but it's too hot to burn them.

My husband turned the fan off in our bedroom so he could sleep. I cried silently, like why does he get to sleep? Anyway he never did it again 😂

Oh another one - we have ferrets and it's becoming harder for me to duck down into their cage to clean it. A few days ago I was really exhausted after a few nights of particularly bad sleep and cleaning the difficulty was getting to me. Sat down, out of breath, looked at the ferrets and felt so guilty I burst into tears.

Bawled my eyes out in Mothercare as the nursery theme I had spent weeks deciding on, was now discontinued. The new ones were equally as nice.
