I've been extremely emotional lately so I virtually cry over anything but I do remember when I first got my BFP Jane McGrath died shortly after and that in particular had me in tears every time I saw it on the news. I was watching the trailer to the Marley & Me movie on you tube last weekend and when DH walked in the room I was a mess (I'm a real animal lover & if you've read the book you will be able to relate to my insanity) and he'd thought something was really wrong. I just let the tears flow when they want to, I'm not good at holding it in it just makes me worse.
Yep same here! Last time I was pregnant a horse had to be put down after breaking down during the running of the Melbourne Cup - I cried for weeks after whenever I thought about the poor horse
Yep, I used to be a news junkie but I avoid anything to do with harm to children, famines and hey, I even have to turn over these days if I'm watching a wildlife program and a bear cub has got separated from Mummy Bear.
I think it is pretty natural to feel those feelings. I have always been animal mad and have always been especially sensitive to animal cruelty stories. Child stories made me uncomfortable but not to the same extent. Now I have DS I find myself overly sensitive to both, especially if the child is the same age as DS or one of his cousins because I feel it like I have lost one of them IYKWIM. I don't think you go back to being the same but you start to learn your limits.
