  1. Well, 1st depression doesn't just come on like that in a couple of days.  You may be down or sad or discouraged, but not depressed.  I am not being rude but some people use the word depression like it's nothing.  

    Just keep your eye on the prize:)  think of your baby.  Relax as much as you can or try to get out and do stuff if that'll help. I would google depression and read the actual symptoms of it.  If you truly feel you fall into the category of depression, this is something to see your obgyn about.


  2. Yep. Happy, sad, angry, depressed. It's like a light switch. It's the hormones. Don't worry, you are not alone. Hang in there mommy. You're almost done. Good luck to you!

  3. right there with you! I'm jsut so beyond done with being pregnant...its hard not to get discouraged. But think of it this way...we could only be 20 weeks along!!

  4. Yes.  All of the emotional stuff that comes with pregnancy in the beginning and early mid trimesters comes back again at the very end.  With me, so did the sickness.  Don't worry, it will all be over soon.  Hopefully you won't still have the blues after baby comes.  Totally natural.  Do you know just how many hormones is racing through you now?  A c**p load!

  5. Oh yes, hormones and life changes, which you are experiencing both, can cause depression and mood swings.  Please talk to your doctor if it continues.  

  6. I got like that too. it helps to have someone to talk to. someone you trust. lots of sunlight...it actually helps. Go outside on a sunny day and have a walk...visit a local park. have a girls day with a good friend. i wish you the best!
