Q: I'm pregnant and depressed
asked by: LilSueSue on September 3rd, 2008

I have one daughter who is 5, and wanted one more kid. I went through a divorce with my daughter's father. He's not around, but I'm happy about it. I've been with my fiance for 2 years now, and I know that we're meant to be together. We happy and in love.

I'm a little over 5 months pregnant, and the past 2 weeks has been hard on me. My fiance works, but I don't, and my daughter goes to school all day. It's not a big deal, I have plenty of things to do. The thing is, when my fiance leaves for work, I burst out in tears. I don't want to move or do anything, and sometimes I don't even want to get up to get something to eat, but I do. I've been really excited about having another baby, then it just became a normal every day life, but still optimistic. I still want our baby, and I'm still happy.

I'm not really sure why I feel like this, and alone. I feel like I'm playing head games with my fiance, and I feel bad. I tried keeping myself busy and around friends, but they just don't do the trick for me. I miss my fiance so bad all day- more than usual, and I'm usually not a clingy type of person, but I am turning into this. What is wrong with me? Will I always feel this way?
