Suffering from really bad depression.. and I'm only 12 weeks and 3 days I'm so scared how it will be the further along I am. I quit smoking a month ago and haven't drank any caffeine and all I want to do is sleep or cry. My manager lowered my hours without telling me and I'm so stressed because this is my first baby and it's going to be hard and very costly.. anyone else suffer from depression while pregnant and how do you get through the day ?

They want me to start taking depression meds closer to my due day .. like when I'm 34 weeks so it doesn't effect the baby as much. It's like I don't have interest in anything anymore .. I feel like I'm pushing my partner away and I can't help but feel so blah

Hi there. I go throw depression to. The best idea is to talk to ur doctor. Mine actually gave me some meds cuz my past haves depression in it. You should also see bout talking to someone. It might be seem very scary at first but things will get better after ur holding ur little baby. I am 19 with an 18 month and 25 weeks tomrrow and im a single mom. Try talking to ur partner or a close friend if u not comfortable talking to your doctor. Hope this helps

I'm 26 weeks this is my second child. I'm on bed rest so I can't work, I can't do to much of anything bc I'm a high risk pregnancy like I was with my first. And I am depressed 24/7 my friends don't come around as much anymore we barely talk on the phone & the fathers are complete a** holes. So its jus been me , my son and my mom. But she works all day most if the time. So I be with my son which I don't mind but I would like adult company here and there sometimes. But don't get down about it. Things will get better jus find something that will take your mind off of things. I write a lot and listen to music.
