I am just wondering how you are doing now?

I understand how your feeling. With my first son, thats how I was. Mostly because all my friends moved out west. I was blowing up like a balloon from all the weight I had been gaining. I felt like my husband wasnt attracted to me any more and this lasted up intill my baby was 3 month old. Its was horriable. Now im 13 weeks pregnant and I am trying so hard to not go down that road again. Are you excited about the baby? You really need to think about the baby when your at this point. You need to be eating good to give yourself and the baby the strength that you and the baby need. When your body is making this life it takes so much from you. You need to replenish yourself. You should try to get out and take a walk. Get some fresh air. Clear your mind and really think about what this depression and not taking care of yourself could be doing to your baby and of corse you. Believe me, you need to get all the rest and sleep you can get right now because when that baby comes your going to wish you did.
I hope all is well and I hope everything works out for you

hi im also feeling very down, im 18, and 23 weeks pregnant with my 1st child. i am stressy towards my partner, and he doesnt deserve it. i am feeling very low, and i need some advice, i am going to talk to my midwife about it, but im just feeling like i am going to be a bad mum, and no matter what anyone says to me, it makes me feel better for a day or two but then i just get back to the way it was before. i dont know what to do, sometimes, as harsh as it sounds, i find myself saying that i am going to kill myself and my baby. i dont want that deep down inside but i just get so down and it hurts that i got a baby inside me, and i think about all her bones and fingers and toes inside me, i look at it two ways, - when im feeling ok, i think WOW its wonderful that i got this incredible little miracle inside me, but when i feel down, i think that i have got these little bones and body inside me, and im totally and utterly disgusted in myself, because it doesnt feel right, and feels as if its disgusting. anyway sorry for going on and on, im feeling down just talking about it now... im just wondering if theres someone out there who understands me, and can help suggest some things maybe...??? please write back, love amie xx

Hi Aime
I no how u feel im pregnant with my second child and feel deppressed i was fine with my first and enjoyed every minut of it, i just wish i could feel the same with this pregnancy. My daughter is 2 in august and shes lovley but im finding it hard playing with her i just cant be botherd like you i have possitive thoughts on a good day and negative thoughts on a bad day. I cant enjoy my food but have to eat it because i feel sick when im hungry i feel worn out im at college cant be bothered with it any more cant be bothered with sex and feel realy sad. I dont think about killing myself though i have my daughter to think about i think your defiatly deep in deppression and need to talk to some one profesionally u dont want to feel like this when you have your baby, because it takes so much energy out of you with out the deppression but at the same time you will love him/her to bits. I hope you feel better soon youve sort of helpd me because i dont think im as deppressed as you so it makes me think it could be worse. You should try to get out around your friends or join a group with other first time mams it might help you because u will beable to share your experiences.
Good Luck with your Baby and deppression speek to your midwife sooner rather than later xxx Linzi xxx

thnx linzi xx

I'm nineteen and amz0104 i have all the same feeling. the same way just in a few days i'm up i'm down i'm all around. I cry and cry and lock myself up in my room. I feel guilty and need to tell my family its so hard for me, because i hate to fail and let them down. I dont think the father whoes miles and miles away is going to stay too. Its hard and i wish people were more informed about all that sides of being pregnant. i didnt think i would be this depressed. I thought about killing us but i could never really do it either I love whatever is in my belly too much and my life. I just cant controll myself. When things are good i think i'm better and its over. Then all of a sudden i'm back in the slump. The father is the only one that knows i'm pregnant and i feel like i put so much hate towards him because i dont know how to express myself right now its so hard. I lost my friends too. Its hard to deal with its all. I'm really ashamed of myself.
