23 weeks pregnant...

Im 23 weeks pregnant and i feel sooooo emotional, all i do is cry :frowning: is this normal?

Re: 23 weeks pregnant...

Pregnancy does weird things to your emotions, but are you crying cause you're sad or casue things upset you easily ?

Re: 23 weeks pregnant...

Yes it is pretty much normal. I am 24 weeks pregnant Alhamdulillah and there are times i get emotional easily BUT usually there is an underlying reason behind it: either i am tired or overwhelmed by something and that just makes the emotional attitude worse. Try to keep yourself busy and do activities that make you happy.

Re: 23 weeks pregnant...

yeah i do try to.. hows your pregnancy going so far?

Re: 23 weeks pregnant...

Both at the moment, im just worried its not good for the baby :(

Re: 23 weeks pregnant...

My preg is ok so far Alhamd. The usual backpain/pelvic pain etc . I have also started to swell and thats how it was with my daughter. I had bad emotional episodes with my daughter but then i probably had too much time on my hands. This time around i have a toddler who keeps me busy so i dont think about the emotional drama i can create lol. BUt there are times when i act like a child. Another friend's husband was complaining about the same thing to my husband how his wife has totally changed after being pregnant.

Re: 23 weeks pregnant...

I can so relate to u huni! Im 27 weeks pregnant alhumdulillah and theres times i just cry for no reason what so ever and sometimes just little things trigger me!

I keep gettin told its hormones n its all normal! Too much cryin isnt good for te baby either i suppose but i guess sometimes u cant help yourself!

Re: 23 weeks pregnant...

It is normal and you can expect it a few months after childbirth as well. Crying is like a release so it should be ok... as long as you feel happy afterwards. It sounds like mood swings.

Try to enjoy this time because it is an amazing experience...definitely a blessing. Just do things to make you happy and don't worry about anything else.
