More or less a rant...

So. I'm 17w2d along. Normally I'm very put together and professional. I am typically good at holding in my emotions and write about them, not very expressive... Past week i see a commercial and i cry. I go to work and someone asks how the baby is, i cry. I think of the father (we split up) and i cry. And while I'm crying my dog will try to make me feel better and curl up on me and lick my face, surprise!! I cry. To give you an idea of how messed up i am, I was playing Fable III and there's a part where you have to choose, three civilians or your lover has to die. okay? I cried. Over a video game! And I'm going out of my mind. I have never lost control like this over my emotions. EVER. I'm so angry with myself, and then while thinking of how angry i am... I cry! I feel hopeless. My step dad, in 14 years has never seen me cry until today.I was so embarrassed. i cried because i burnt cookies. Seriously.

Well u shouldn't beat urself up over crying pregnant or not there is completely nothing wrong with crying expressing emotions is healthy keeping them bottled in is not! U don't always have to b a hard rock its okay to shead tears just don't stress while pregnant but seeing u are preggers ur hormones are on the Fritz so being emotional is completely normal u will b ok just blame it on being pregnant that's wat I do lol

Don't be so hard on your self I do the same thing now. I dropped my pb&j sandwich the other day and cried for probably 15 minutes. It will be fine, it's just a hormone thing for pregnant women :/
