Hi ladies
Seems to be a bit of a taboo subject but I'm sure I'm not the only one so thought I'd start a safe place to vent, discuss symptoms and get support for those of us who struggle with this.
I am newly pregnant with #4 and have struggled with depression ever since I can remember. It was dramatically worse post-partum with #1 and was officially diagnosed with PND after both #1 and #3.
I intend to stay on my medications for most of my pregnancy unless advised otherwise by my doctor (she has already cleared it but I will be monitored) - weaning off in third tri and back on post-partum if required.
Anyone else? How are all you ladies doing?
(I realise this is on the first tri board but not limited to just first tri - mods feel free to move it if it'd be better suited elsewhere)
