So it is totally normal...
to break down and cry over things that normally wouldn't bother you right? Last night at 3am Chelsea wouldn't stop crying while I changed her diaper and I started sobbing and then today a friend made a comment about work that I know makes total sense but I am still sitting here hysterical. This is normal right?

Re: So it is totally normal...
Totally normal Nicole. For the first 3-4 weeks I would cry for no reason at all. Happy things, sad things, silly things, everything made me cry. I thought I was losing my mind. It gets better and easier. If you need to talk, FM me.

Re: So it is totally normal...
Yes, it's normal.
If you can, when DH gets home, do something by yourself for an hour. Take a bath, go for a walk, watch a couple episodes of SATC by yourself.... I never thought that would make much of a difference in how I was feeling in those early days but it did.

Re: So it is totally normal...
Oh yes. I cried so much at times right after DS was born, often for no reason, soemtimes because I got frustrated with myself because I couldn't figure out how to calm him.
It got better for me around 6 wks, though I still cry easily over things that never bothered me before, especially mothers and sons. I was bawling when I read this story in Newsday the other day about a woman whose son was stillborn.
It will get better!

So not fun but totally normal. I DO NOT miss those early days of constant anxiety coupled with overwhelming sadness. I was so miserable.

Re: So it is totally normal...
Absolutely normal.
I would break down and cry all the time. It's the hormones and the overwhelming "newness" of it all. It will stop in time...or at least change. I still get teary eyed over DS but for different reasons. He used to cry so much and I would sob...now he's just getting to be such a big boy and I have some tears of joy over it...often.

Re: So it is totally normal...
I do that normally.....Of course, this is a huge adjustment, very stressful - tiring - and your levels are all over the place. You'll feel better soon.
