Why are you crying now?!

Back in October 2015, I found out I was pregnant with my first child.

I found out 1 day after my first wedding anniversary and found it highly amusing the amount of people who advised me to be married "at least a year" before having a baby.
I,clearly, took their advice very seriously!

Since then, with the help of preggo hormones, I have cried at some of the funniest things.

After telling a friend about these things over lunch on Christmas eve, she insists I text her when something new and funny adds to the list.

Recently I messaged her with the newest addition, and was told I should start a blog.

Pregnancy is filled with exciting, unusual things - especially for the first timer
- and writing down the funny things that made me cry might just keep me sane. (Plus give everyone a giggle in the process!)

Some may not seem rational... (but when are pregnant ladies rational?)
And some may not actually sound funny to start with until you hear the length of time I cried over it!

Baby brain permitting I will attempt to remember everything that made me cry over the last 14 weeks of pregnancy!

So here is a list of things that have made me cry:

1. Finding out I was pregnant whilst my husband was half way to India for a week. I had this lovely idea on how to tell him, but ended up texting him "I'm Pregnant!!!!" Which he received as he landed in Dubai and then could not get hold of me for an hour and half of his lay over because I was at work.

2. I finished washing the dishes. 
Not sure if this was relief or pride?

3. Saw a TV advert with a kitten.

4. I didn't think my christmas gift choices for my husband were going to be good enough. I cried for half an hour over this, all whilst hubby consoled me.

5. Hubby consoled me over Christmas present choices and i thought he was the sweetest man alive at this point.

6. Hubby made me a plate of cucumber slices when I had morning sickness/stomach virus combo and couldn't get out of bed for nearly 2 weeks.

7. Watching the Apprentice - Charlene's kids said sweet stuff about her. Gone in seconds.

8. My Christmas card from my husband had lovely words in it about me and baby...

9. I don't know what to pack for my trip to minnesota because I'm pregnant, it's freezing there and I'm hormonal.

20 minutes of crying over which cream jumper to pack...taking 3 out of 4 of them.

10. We ran out of my favourite cheese.

11. Hubby replaced my favourite cheese.

12. Craving Coco Pops like my life depends on it - hubby buys them for me.

13. Can't understand why some people just aren't acting happy for me.
Cried for 5 minutes - had a bowl of coco pops - cried for 25 minutes.

And the most recent...

14. Ran out of full fat milk so couldn't have coco pops. Booed my eyes out like I'd lost a loved one. Half an hour to calm down...

People who know me well know I don't like showing emotion unless something is seriously wrong... 

This new me that cries at everything is absolutely hilarious for them...

Enjoy the list!!
