Seasonal depression
Does anyone else feel down around this time of year? It feels multiplied now that I’m expecting again. Everything is overwhelming right now and life feels stagnant. I’ve lost my sense of self and it feels impossible to enjoy the “most wonderful time of the year.” I wanna get out and do things or meet with moms on here but at the same time am horrible with replying and just wanna be a recluse in my house while dealing with nausea etc. This last year has been rough and I just don’t feel like the best version of myself. Just wanna get it together for my little boy and bean on the way. How do you deal with the blues around this time?

@Susie I definitely need to change my scenery up so getting out would be nice.
Also taking vitamin D helps 😁
I totally get this! Same boat - got a September 2023 baby and am expecting a March 2025 baby and really feeling the blues
@Kristina pregnancy with a toddler feels like a whole different beast!
I've been going on walks in the park when the sun is out. The fresh air feels so nice! My kids can play and I stroll the baby. This way, I feel like I'm doing something good for me and for my kids.

I definitely get winter depression. I just try to still get out of the house and do things I enjoy even when it's dark outside. Get the blood pumping ya know?
