Cry on the bed, having blundered (6)

I believe the answer is:

boobed

'blundered' is the definition.
('boob' can be a synonym of 'blunder')

'cry on the bed' is the wordplay.
'cry' becomes 'boo' (I have seen 'Cry of contempt ' mean 'boo' so perhaps 'cry' could also mean 'boo').
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another (in a down clue, letters appear on others).
'boo'+'bed'='BOOBED'

'having' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
