did i understand that correctly that you are 16 years old? no judgement, just wanted to make sure i understood otherwise this post won't make much sense.
being nervous and worried i think is part of every pregnancy. and insecurities with the sudden changes are also normal. you are not alone. you should talk to your doctor though about some of the more serious depressive thoughts you are having. it's probably partly due to hormones, but (if you are 16), that's just going to make it all the more scary. do you have family or friends you can go to? i know magee has some special classes for teen moms to be. having the support of other women your age could help. https://www.magee.edu/coe/OtherPages/ComEdOutreach.html
GL with your pregnancy and at the very least, you can message me if you need a shoulder.
Being pregnant will have you go through many mood swings and stages. Hopefully, what you are feeling is a mood swing. You have to ask yourself: what initiated this feeling, who may have made you feel sad and depressed and who can you talk to about it. If you can answers those questions, I think you will feel much better. You will learn during this pregnancy who you can count on. Having a support system around you makes a world of difference. The best advice I can give you is talk it out to someone you trust, it might be a teacher, someone else's mother or your own mother; make sure it is someone that has been through a pregnancy and someone older than you. Because they may know what you are experiencing and can help you. Once you have opened up about your feelings, your mood may change.
Please keep me posted about how you are doing...I would love to hear from you!
