I am so emotional with this pregnancy. I cry over nothing. Everything makes me cry. I feel like it's getting worse as pregnancy goes on. Did you momma's have emotional pregnancy?. It was throughout the pregnancy or just in the beginning?

I remember being emotional about things. For me it was throughout the pregnancy. Afterwards though things felt so much better and I felt I was able to control my emotions. It's hard to deal with our thoughts and feelings, and others when we are emotional. Hang in there though and try to enjoy your pregnancy even though things may seem crazy.

Yeah the emotional part will be over before you know it. How far along are? I'm sure that you both will be so excited when your baby arrives. Babies are so cute and little but they grow so fast. So you will have to enjoy that too although you will be very tired.

Thank you Dominique...My bf don't know what to do when I am on this cry on cue. He always told me its normal and I don't have to cry over nothing but what can I do I can't help it sometimes..I am enjoying my pregnancy though I am so much excited for having a baby although there are some worries but I guess worries are already part of our daily life.

the emotions can even go berserk as the months pass by. what trimester are you in now, btw? maybe you could try diverting your attention to activities that would be more productive, not the ones that would affect your pregnancy though.

A woman's hormones go crazy during pregnancy. That is why you would notice some pregnant women to be ill-tempered at times. They get annoyed/irritated with the slightest scent of burning oil or perfume. All senses are hyperactive. Just don't indulge yourself with sad thoughts coz it is also unhealthy for the baby. Clear away your thoughts. Go to the mall.

It's normal to most in a certain period of the pregnancy. Embrace your hormons and try to make the best out of it. The time will come you feel afraid too and also this feeling will be gone. And after the baby is born your hormons will collaps from one minute to an other. Some will cry, others will shiver for cold for hours, most of us won't feel great for a long time. It's hard to say if this runs into the family but it is normal that you have it throughout the pregnancy and the longer you are pregnant the worser it gets (more hormons). But who cares? The good news is you are pregnant :-)

I am no expert and definitely have not much knowledge about this but I think pregnant women are more emotional because of their body's hormones, something to do with that, I'm just not sure which one or what exactly. I believe that it would be best to talk about it with women who have experienced being pregnant before and maybe men who have partners or wives who are or have been pregnant before because they are the ones who can help you understand how you feel and what could be done about it. Reading books or online articles about it could also help.
