Are you more emotional now
then you were before you have kids? Or you the same or less??
I was watching Children In Need tonight and my Lord, my little mum heart couldn't take it! I was proper bawling the whole way through. The story of little Ellie brought tears to my eyes, got worse when Girls Aloud had 3 stories about children without beds, the parents who lost their son Harry (and I think their oldest son too) and then when Girls Aloud sang again with the VTs of those ill children... I was full on mascara running down my face and everything!

I am SO much more emotional now! I don't think I could make it a week without getting teary eyed about something. Tonight Nolan started singing "You Are My Sunshine" to Aidan while he was in his saucer and I was bawling by the time he sang the last words. Really anything child related can make me tear up, sometimes I even surprise myself by how things effect me.

Even before I had Autumn, I would cry at some of the saddest stories. But watching it this year with her cuddled up in my arms and being 16 weeks pregnant, I was a complete wreck. Like you, the Ellie story made me cry so much that I had to leave the room to calm down. Only to walk back in to find that another even sadder story was just being shown...

Totally more now than before. I'm already an emotional person, but since having Lily and Liam, I can cry to just about anything. I was watching Baby Boom a few weeks back, and the scene where Elizabeth is sick and JC is taking care of her made me cry. The other scene that I balled at was at the end when JC enters the room and Elizabeth sees her and says "Mama" for the first time, I used up my tissue box! And I watched "Click" again, and this time it was more emotional to me. I watched Toy Story 2 earlier today with Lily and the scene where Jessie is talking about Emily and you hear the song "When she loved me", I cried quietly next to Lily who had no idea. A video, a song, anything can set me off. I tell my husband that Im like Pavlov's dogs, if I hear/see something that has made me cry before, theres a 100% chance that I will cry again. But honestly, I like crying, because I feel like I can release deep down emotions that way. Afterwards, I feel better.

i am not- or shall i say was not a crier. according to my mother from the time i was 5 i never cried, and there were PLENTY of things to cry about. she said the two times i did cry she knew something had to be massively wrong.
even when i was pregnant i wasnt emotional. but now that i have Gigi i swear i tear up over silly things. and Gray's Anatomy? at some point i cry at every episode. if it has to do with children, get the kleenex. and now i cry when i'm angry, which just makes me even angrier.
