They do, I know it's infuriating. It's part of baby blue. I absolutely hated them. They lasted about 10 days to a week for me. Hope they clear up soon for you

It does. The first few weeks were super tough for me. Emotions. Crying. Fear. Dread etc. my baby is 8 weeks today and I’d say suddenly the last two weeks have been really different and enjoyable … so far xx hang in there xx

I had a lot of anger and was very emotional for around 6 months to be honest. I realise it was because of hormones and sleep deprivation. I still get emotional when I have had really really bad sleep for awhile (not angry) It does get better and your relationship might get tested at times but make a promise to each other to stick it out because it doesnt last forever❤️

The emotions came in intense around a week pp, then it calmed down after a few weeks. I would feel it coming on, and I’d cry/be emotional and then take a warm shower, relax, and that helped me calm down. It was a cycle like that for a bit, but it did improve a lot. Don’t let it stress you out too much and don’t let yourself feel “bad” for having emotions. If you get concerned that it’s not passing or improving with time, talk to your doctor. Also, communicate with your partner and let them know what you need in those moments. Make sure you don’t keep it to yourself, let yourself have support through it.
