I have been suicidal since I was 13 I'm now 19. It is extremely difficult to handle. I know it seems hopeless and people just telling you to think about something else doesn't help I understand. It's gunna be really hard some days but just remember that you are a wonderful person and this baby will be so lucky to have you! All of us care about you and I'm sure ur friends,family and baby daddy also so they just don't know how to handle the situation . Why not do some things you love to do maybe find a new hobby help relax you! Also talking with a doctor or therapist really helps they listen well and have no judgement. I hope you feel better soon I know dealing with this must be very difficult for you.

Im 26 weeks pregnant and have been with the father of my child for 3 years. I want a family like most women but im being put down by my boyfriend. I feel worthless and alone. Hes the only person I have but im starting to question my value and if I'll even be a good mother.  I know it sounds bad but ive thought about committing suicide since ive been pregnant.  Trying to wait until the baby comes before I attempt.

I was suiscidal with my first, hes now five. I knew no one where we lived was at home on a farm broke cause my job doesnt have maternity leave, my partner and I hardly talked he was a wanker, wen I was sick it was in my head. It was hard, I went on depression tabs after I breastfed my son. Life got beta, we moved and I made friends through parent group. Hang in there, it gets beta, youl have new and beta friends once yr baby arrives. xx

I too suffered from depression while I was pregnant but the minute I had my son in my arms every negative thought in head just went away and I fell head over heels in love the birth of your child is the most AMAZING process ever and from the day he was born (April 4, 2012) it feels like no one else in the world matters when we are together:-)

pregnancy at the best of times can be lonely, but it is also a great time to re-evaluate where your at in your life and a good time to meet new people that are heading in the same direction as you are, espically if none of your friends have children, also having been on bed rest is emotionally draining and its also socially limiting, as it means that your friends would have to make all the effort,  can you join a new mums group or play group, I  would also mention how your feeling at your next app, as it is also very important that you get on top of how your feeling before baby comes as when you have a new baby this can also be very isolating, thats why I mentioned the new mums group etc, because you will be around other new mums going through the same as you and it can be a big help, its very easy for depression to turn into post natal depression, so its extremely important to let your health care provider know whats going on

awe. im sorry dear. losing your friends is definitely a part of life. im 21 and i have 1 good friend that i still see, and i got lucky and found out she's pregnant as well with me and as far along as i am. it does get really hard, i couldn't imagine having a kid at a younger age. i definitely feel your pain all sleep, eating, and computer. all day every day all i do is sleep, eat, and play video games lol. it really ***** i dont have a job, nor does my fiance and we both live with my parents. its hard. i know where your coming from. the nasty comments/looks i would just try your best to ignore them. i know its really hard, but they are no one to judge you. if need be, say something. i would lol im very outspoken though and can't take much sh!t from people. you could be having a hormonal night, but suicide is nothing to think about, even not being n pregnant. god put you here for a reason, and that reason was not for you to end it at a young age! or end it period. everything you go through only makes you a stronger person in the end dear. try to think as positive as you can, if you want/need to you can always message me, i always have my phone by my side, and am always on it! lol

I feel completely alone. All i do is sleep, eat, and go on the computer. I just got off of bedrest which i thought would make things better since i was on it for four months but no. No one comes to see me, or they blow me off. I feel like a huge painful blimp that no one cares about. Sure people are excited for my little one, including the BD but when it comes to me they havr no interest. Im just tired of being in pain and being alone, im tired of people ridiculing me because i got pregnant young and even though i worked my butt off and graduated high school while on bedrest,  people still give me nasty comments or looks. Maybe im just having a hormonal night, i used to be on antidepressants before getting pregnant for cutting and trying to commit suicide and ive done great but tonight ...i just feel terrible.
