Is it normal to feel emotional during pregnancy?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Lots of tv comedies wouldn't have any shows without pregnancy for a topic! to be serious, emotional changes are definitely common due to the dramatic hormonal fluctuations seen throughout pregnancy. Even pre-existing conditions like depression can be worsened by pregnancy. Good partner support is crucial -- understanding and communication are the keys to healthy relationships.

Yes: Pregnancy can be very emotional as hormonal changes occur not to mention the stress and anxiety that comes along with work, being a wife/girlfriend, everyday issues, etc. Being emotional is very common. If your emotions become too severe, than seek medical help from a dr. Good luck to you.
