Q: Depression?

I think I am going through depression. I know its not about the pregnancy more so about my situation. I love my son and cant wait to meet him, he is the only thing that brings me joy.

However, I feel stuck at my job. Im worried that I wont be able to move out when my lease is up next summer.

I cant stop worrying about child care and if Im going to afford it.

The main thing I am stressing his my relationship with my bf . Things have changed, I hardly see him, barely get to speak to him. We even discussed him moving in and he hasnt taken not one step to do so.. It hurts my heart especially knowing that I may have to be a single mom.

Has anyone else felt this way? What did you do to get out of your funk so that you can enjoy your pregnancy more. I know my baby feels everything I feel so its weighing on me that I feel this way...

Hi there. How are you? I completely understand what are you trying to say. Hardships are the part of life. Please don't get rude anytime with your husband. It makes a lot of problems. Just be calm down. Deal him with extreme love. you can let him understand your heart with love. Some times a relationship needs space. What do you think ? Please handle all things with peace and love. Consult a specialist for your depression. Take care of your diet and health. Good luck.

Hi there, I hope you are fine. Well Don't worry about this. This is completely normal. The way you are feeling. Things that you just discussed with us. This is all normal. I am just worried about listening to the single condition. That is really overwhelming situation. My friend actually suffered from that condition that's how I am aware of this. This is really hard thing to do. Well you don;t have to worry. Life never stops. things comes and goes all the time. Whatever we think and whatever we do. Nothing could change what is about to come. So don't worry and just try to be happy and welcome your child with great happiness. I hope this might be helpful for you. Take care dear.

I also want to say. Maybe it's off topic. Today I read that they write badly about the clinic in Ukraine. This clinic is engaged in the treatment of infertility and surrogate motherhood. I understand that it is written by competitors who recommend their clinics.
I want to say that my sister applied to the clinic Biotexcom and received good consultations. Why in Ukraine? There services are cheaper than ours. There it is all legalized and there are no problems with the law. The staff speaks English and there is no language problem.
I understand that different people write at forums. Someone gives advice and writes the truth. Some write nonsense and get pleasure from it. Nobody checks the reliability of information. Therefore, we need to believe only good acquaintances and their recommendations.

I would suggest that you find positive things to do with your day - meet with friends and perhaps join some classes where you could meet other mums-to-be? There are often pregnancy yoga, swimming, but really anything that gets you out and about would be good. Although he needs to make it clear that he supports you (and you perhaps need to say HOW you need him to support you beyond mere practical things), you need to be shifting your attention away from just him as he is probably feeling the pressure and it's adding to the weird dynamic. You can be thinking all wrong because you are alone and have nothing to do. You can start a work from home job to get involved in any activity and also a little bit of money. But your last resort lies is confronting him. and asking him if he even wants to continue sharing the relationship or not. If he says yes, try to convince him into planning a wedding as soon as you can.

Hi everyone,
First of all, you need to think straight and stop stressing out, its bad for the baby. Your situation has a lot of different point views to be seen through. Both positive and negative. Although any or every point of view can be only justified after you confront him, you have to relax and keep your calm. Being pregnant you have everything on risk. Clearly, your emotional and perhaps physical needs are higher due to your pregnancy and the fact that you are not working. He may well be struggling to make adjustments to this new situation and so far is stepping up in the only way he knows how: by being the breadwinner. First of all, I would ask if you could have that with no phones or devices and check with how he is feeling about being the only one working and what he feels he will need to do during the last stage of your pregnancy, labor, the birth and afterward. You need to know that you are on the same page. I felt a bit like my OH wouldn't step up and do what was needed

It's normal to go through a range of emotions while pregnant. The extra stress doesn't help. With my first i was having relationship problems with my (now) ex-husband. The thing that got me through was making a "back-up plan" so I knew I could do it on my own if I had too (which, I ended up having to once my DS was about 8 months). I'm sure this isn't the best advice, or healthiest, but it's what worked for me. Make sure you have a good support system - family, friends, etc. You baby will be so loved.
