depression and pregnancy

[shorty0325]

Has anyone else had this? All I feel like doing is crying any sleeping???

Awww. Partly how I feel. Where I am it's getting to 30 degrees.. all I can afford is sweat pants and the walmart here doesn't sell much for maternity clothes.. :( so pretty much I go around lookin.. gross!

I wish I could cry as much as I wanted to! For some reason, even feeling depressed about things I can only cry for a minute before it all just gets shoved back somewhere. I wish I could just bawl right now and get it over with and feel a little better after but I can't :( I feel ya though. This pregnancy has been pretty good to me emotions-wise but I'm 39 weeks and this last stretch I've felt so ugly and destroyed and my fiance is not helping :(

That's a good idea. Thanks! :)

Thats the hardest part, when people rely on u especially emotionally.  Right now we need the emotional support to stay sane.  Run a bubble bath, light some candles, lock the door, and cry while relaxing in the tub.  Also tell everyone to not disturbe you for 20 full minutes.

Thank you everyone. I feel like everyone relies on me for one thing or another. When I go down to have a sleep while my daughter is in school and I get told by my dad that there's something wrong with me because I need to go have a nap! My daughter has been reacting badly to the pregnancy I know it's normal but it's hard!

Uhh this is me all day lately. I cry over everything

Your body is just overwhelmed.  Its ok to cry and sleep.  If you ever feel like harming urself or baby seek help immediately.   But crying and sleeping can be normal.

Your hormones are going to be everywhere while youre pregnant. Be sure to discuss these feeling with you OB the next time you go! If it gets worse please don't wait! Depression is real and it's harmful to you and the baby! It also leads to postpartum depression. Just keep your head up dear!
