Anyone else feel down?

I should be happy, I'm having a baby! But I'm not..I feel sad for no effing reason. I hate the way I look latley too! My bump isn't all that cute with my new giant love handles. I'm in a crap load of pain and constantly exhausted.

I know, I'm whining... Anyone else stuck feeling blue?

    It's totally normal!  Your hormones are going crazy, your body is rapidly changing, and you're facing a huge life change.  If you feel like it's getting severe, or of it persists for more than a few days, I would definitely talk to your doctor/midwife.  Some women go through real depression during pregnancy, and it can be serious.  But what you're talking about sounds completely normal.  Try to indulge yourself in something you really love--a favorite movie, something yummy, a hobby, sexy-time with your s/o.  Giving yourself something positive and non-baby related to focus on might help.  ((hugs))  Hope you feel better soon!

    yes, today is an off day for me. everyone is getting on my nerves and all I want to do is cry. To make matters worse, my hubby is going out of town for a golf tournament so I will miss him too :( Oh gotta love the hormones.

    Yes, me definitely. Especially the past few days - we had so much excitement on Wednesday when we found out the sex that when the adrenaline finally exited I crashed big time and haven't been able to come back up yet. I think it's all natural, although it feels like an alien has taken over my body at times.

    I've been down lately too. I feel like I'm on a rollercoaster and I hit the bottom and can't manage to get up to the next hill. I'm trying the little things to keep me going. I am taking my boys to the park after they get out of preschool and my 1 1/2 year old kept hugging me and kissing me and calling me Honey earlier. It was too sweet to keep feeling blue. I haven't had motivation to clean like I've needed/wanted to these last couple of days and our turtle aquarium stinks and I've told DH all week to clean it and he has pushed it off and when I decided to do it, I couldn't move it because it was too heavy from the rocks and water. I was about to cry. Either way, I'm sure things will get better. Maybe get your favorite snack and favorite movie to cuddle up with while DH is gone. Chin up!
