Inundated with emails headed 'Congratulations'

I'm as pleased as anyone that the new Prince has arrived safely, but I don't know how many more my heart can take :rotfl: It really gets your hopes up :o

    Me too! Most of the emails in my inbox have been about it and yesterday my Facebook news feed was full of it. I'm happy for them but it's getting a bit too much now and the "Congratulations" messages in my inbox just leave me feeling very dejected. :(

    I was also about to come on here and post about this. I think we ALL know about the baby now. And why are they saying Congratulations to us anyway? It isn't my baby!

    I think this humidity is making me mean :(
