    Oh comon Nellie!  Of course you can be depressed at any time in your life!- and surely going through a pregnancy and break up is a lot of stress on top of everything else. >hugs<

    I was very depressed even before I found out I was pregnant... finding out I was pregnant almost broke me... I did finally get up the nerve to talk to my Dr. and have been feeling a little better on the perscription he wrote (not all the way- but improved). 

     I hope you ask for help too- talk to someone!

    Definitely possible. And being newly single is probably a little overwhelming, to say the least, so no wonder you are stressed and possibly depressed. I'd see someone. There is also the single parents board and I bet there are single pregnant women over there that you could talk to.

    For sure girl.  I have been crying in the shower a lot...and super sad when I am alone.  Just make sure that even though you're single, you have a good support system...family, friends...anyone that will listen.  Don't bottle it all up.  Just make sure to talk to your doc too...it can really help.

    Good luck and don't stress too much.
