Make sure you're getting your prenatal vitamins and eating right.  I used to work from home and found it was stifling and depressing, so I think you need to join a church or some other group where you have things in common with people who are going through what you are.  

My niece is 8 weeks pregnant and dealing with the nausea and trouble finding foods she can eat.  It seems like just when you need to be eating the best and feeling the most positive, pregnancy makes you feel the opposite.

Have you discussed this with your doc? If you are just temporarily unhappy and don't have depression, it is important to find what can be done to change and do it quickly.

A fixable depressed state can turn into a depression requiring meds, so check out all available resources to see if things can be turned around. Can you afford counseling? Do you like to read, because you may be able to find answers there too.

What you are experiencing may require more than your boyfriend and yourself figuring out a solution on your own though. Some solutions provided by experts or those with experience are so simple you may say why didn't I think of that?

Write back tonight if you can and provide more information. Someone here will have ideas for you.
