Being emotional after birth

Question

Is it normal to be emotional after birth? Ever since birth, when I watch any tragedy movie or drama that relates to life and death of family member will make me wanted to cry or emotional. I will keep think back the scene when I give birth to my baby. God bless she is alright. But to my symptom Is it normal?

Hello Janice! Congratulations on the birth of your baby girl 🥰 It is totally normal, even during pregnancy. It’s the hormones. Probably because I’m a mum (both fur kids and human) now, I understand and feel it more while watching sad videos/shows of small kids & pets. Err 感同身受..

Congrats!! Yes! Totally normal. Your hormones are still going haywire after giving birth. Even now, my girl is 3months old already, my hormones haven’t gone back to normal. Even now, everytime I look at my girl, reminds me of how I gave birth to her. Sometimes I’ll even cry thinking “daaaang, I gave birth to this girl! She came out of me!!” I also teared up watching movies. Sad and happy movies hahahaha!
