Hello All, I am new here but not new to depression or pregnancy lol...
I am 14 weeks preg with my 3rd (so yeah just outa the horrible 1st trimester). My other 2 are older kids (7 & 9), I am 33. This preg was unexpected but I am very happy about it now that I have settled into it.
My issue is i am having mood swings from feeling good to mild depression (sad, anxiety, guilty feelings, very unmotivated, not wanting to get out of bed, shower etc). I have a history of depression so i know myself well in this area. My prenate doc knows my history and all that. Just wanted to know if anyone remembers if their preg was like this or is currently preg and familiar with this lol..
I have like 4 good days then 3 or 4 bad days...very strange, is it the preg? Anyone familiar with this cycle in their pregnancy??? When I get into a depression 'rut' as I call it, it is usually like a 1 or 2 month span, not a 3 or 4 day cycle.
Tracking my moods during my pregnancy. Finding my moods unpredictable this time around. History of depression in myself and both sides of family. I have 2 other children but never had post-partem depression.
