Prenatal depression or just normal pregnancy hormones

Bit of a sensitive one, I’ve been struggling with my emotions now for a good few weeks, doesn’t take a lot to make me cry or make me feel anxious. I’m already going through therapy for a fear of the hospitals and doctors. But I just feel very emotional, I know there’s loads to do with the run up go baby boy coming but I just feel like between appointments normal life work and the endless list that I can’t seem to stay focussed on one thing. I haven’t been sleeping properly due to not being comfortable and waking up every time I turn over. Im trying my best to stay active, even when I’m shattered. Just don’t know which way is up right now…

You're absolutely not alone. Have you spoken to your midwife? There is loads of support available. I had a bit of a meltdown and had to take some time off work because it was all too much, and I really quickly began to feel better with just one thing off my plate. It's okay to not be okay, just don't keep it to yourself. Xx

Thanks lovely! My midwife already knows I suffer with anxiety and ocd, and they ask me every midwife appointment how it is. I just wanna be the best I can be for him and me but yeah it’s just hard

It is hard. But keep going. Keep talking and keep being open with your midwife. You've got this x
