Depression.

I have had depression since I was 8/9 years old. When I had my son I had severe PPD and had to be heavily medicated. Throughout this pregnancy (28 weeks and 5 days) I have felt excited then upset about being pregnant. I'm starting to feel guilty for having another baby even though my son is excited. I feel disconnected and that I might love this baby as much. My depression is setting in hard and I feel like I'm just broken. My husband called me fat yesterday and I think that's why I'm such a mess today. When we met I had a severe eating disorder that he helped me get through. So for him to call me fat really hurts and has me falling into my old thought process. I feel pathetic today.

Don't feel guilty about having another baby I felt exactly the same but it's good for them to have a sibling. My cousins little girl is an only child and always says mum why don't I have a brother or sister everyone at school does. Honest it's good for them and you will love them exactly the same!
