    Very emotional?

    Throughout this pregnancy I have been really emotional. I can cry so easily. I burst out in tears at work today because I felt sick and was just generally over it. I cry because I get told off for something etc

    Is this normal? Or am I just a sook?

    It's normal, hun or i'm a sook too lol.

    At least you didn't have a huge tantrum in coles and start crying lol that was me! Well the checkout chick shouldn't have argued with me. I yelled out I just wanna go home, poor DH was so embarrassed

    This is me all over. Can't remember why I cried last, but I'm sure it seemed like a good reason at the time I find it gets better in second trimester and then worse again in the third!!

    It's not just you! I've settled down a little now, but I've been so moody and emotional. When I was in QLD on holidays, I cried at all the theme parks and actually threw a tanty (stomping the ground and throwing my fists LOL) at movie world because I couldn't go on the superman ride PMSL!

    Sure to onlookers we may be sooks, but it certainly made me feel better LMAO!

    Your hormones are pretty funky hence the extra emotions - I cried at the Woolies help desk over being unable to find pesto one day during my pregnancy. I swear they now refer to me as the crying pesto lady.......

    All normal. I still cry easily now. Probably being more tired and a heck of alot of things strike more of a chord with me now I'm a mum.

    I think it's mostly normal. I cry alot too. most pg women do at some stage or another!!
    My hormones go ab****ely insane when I'm pg tho and for me, I think it goes a bit beyond the normal pg hormonal-ness and is the begining of ante natal depression. If you have any other symptoms, like irritability, sleeplessness, or sleeping alot, indecisive....(here's a link to an article on the main BB site Ante-Natal Depression - Depression During Pregnancy ) it would probably be a great idea to talk to your OB/GP or midwife.

    I'm always more emotional when I'm PG, and when I was PG with the girls, throw in horrific mood swings... poor DH was counting the days until she was born.
    It did get better, each time

    Yep, me too! I have cried because my toast was too brown (silly!) but mainly now cry when looking at baby clothes. Makes for some very embarrassing shopping trips. Just have to look at size 0000 and I get teary, actually thinking about it now off I go again.......
