Anyone else felt super emotional/tearful in early labour?

Just started having contractions at 41+5 and I can’t help feel excited but also weirdly emotional, can’t seem to stop crying, not sure if it’s just the realisation of it all being real or all the hormones!!

Any emotion is valid, go with it. Get that oxytocin flowing. Good music, movement, cuddles with partner, cry if you want to! Good luck you will be holding your beautiful baby very soon!❤️❤️

I'm being induced tomorrow and have become emotional at just about everything... The house not being in order, feeling selfishly possessive of my baby and mournin the fact that he will be Earthside soon and not tucked away in my uterus, being so out of control with the birth process, being excited to meet baby, but scared of everything. I think it's just very natural, hormonal or not! Feel them feels mama ♥️
