Crying

[DebiOBrien]

I cry when my daughter cries sometimes (she's 2 weeks old). Is that. Normal?

I think that seems pretty normal to me. You are still getting rid of hormones, too. Sounds like you're just responding to your baby on a different level. Talk to your doctor in a few weeks when you go for your checkup.

Awwww. I guess. Hormones like the above mom said.

I still get the feeling of wanting to cry when my son does. Same as my sister growing up. Any child really. But mostly my son. He's 2 1/2. It might have something to do with being pregnant again, but I've always been a softie. Besides, who likes seeing their baby/child cry? So long as your not overly depressed I don't see it being an issue. If it worries you talk to your dr :)

 yep it is

I am a little bit worried but I think reading so much about postpartum depression is adding to that.

 Yep! You're fine! It will get better. Probably the baby blues and its hormonal.

Awe! Reading and doing research can be good, but also can get us more worked up. Just try and seperate that just cause you read it doesn't make it so for you. Of course that doesn't mean if it is similar to not talk to your dr. Again, I'm a huge softie. Any child or baby cries and I tear up. Good luck!! I hope it sorts itself out, or you get help if you need it. Also keep in mind, you have a very young baby. Like others said, hormones balancing, and also having babies takes its toll on us. HUGS!

Shes right. I went through it too. Youll be okay.

SO normal.  I cried one day when Isabelle cried and I didn't know why, and I couldn't find anything wrong.  I sobbed thinking about how beautiful and wonderful she is.  I cried a LOT in the first month after she was born.  PPD is something that hangs around longer than a few weeks, if it starts to fade, it's just the 'baby blues' caused by the tank in hormones from no longer bring pregnant.

Yep, it's hormones! You will get through it!
