Could it or be Prenatal Depression - anyone suffering?

[Mummatobe]

Hi, I am currently 16 weeks. For the past few weeks I have been feeling very low. Tearful and also Sometimes balling, a knot in my stomach & so anxious all the time. I'm convinced my partner is going to leave me I don't know why as he has reassured me that we are fine, we moved house recently so that was a big up hevel. Im also so conscious of my changing shape, worried about how much weight I am putting on. I'm already a mum of 1, I don't remember feeling like this when I was pregnant with her. I'm seeing my midwife tomorrow for my 16 week checkup. I don't know whether to say anything to her, as it could just be hormonal. I just don't feel like my mood is picking up. I've also been suffering alot with headaches..
Has anyone else been feeling like this? Or has felt like this - what would u recommend to do.

Thanks in advance Xx

I think it is something you should definitely talk to your midwife about it has bouts of feeling like that when I was pregnant with my second but it really got worse after I had him could never put my finger on it and didn't know why I felt like that the knots in my stomach and I would just cry the first year is a bler . I never got help but this time round if it happens again I will x

I feel like I could have written this post. I'm only 7 weeks but feel completely hopeless. I come home from work just to wallow in self pity in bed and barely speaking to my OH right now. I also keep dreaming about him leaving me, and getting upset about gaining weight.
I'm going to speak to my midwife about it because I can't cope with this for the full term. You should too x

Talk to her! I ended up in counseling the first trimester was dignosed with PTSD and anxiety. But it helped. I would never leave the house and it was terrible. Talk to her she might have recommendations.

I would definitely mention it to your midwife.
I felt like this in my second pregnancy, I didn't tell anyone and it just got worse and worse.
I often had thoughts of harming myself and my unborn baby. It wasn't until my daughter was 3 months old I finally went to the doctor and got diagnosed with postnatal depression.
Please please talk to your midwife

I have really been struggling even though I'm so over the moon about this pregnancy. Thankfully I see a psychologist anyway and have an appointment next week so am going to talk to her xx
