Why cant I stop being depressed?

I wish I could tell you in so many words how I feel but if I did that you would read all day!! Being pregnant is not easy!! How many woman out there have support?? Someone to tell them they are beautiful, ask them if they need to be rubbed once in a while.. Kiss them when the look down.. How come people dont see past your feelings? I seriously feel so so so depressed!! I have experienced all of this and more! and I hope someone out there can tell me that everything will be ok. I just want to be a great wife and mother.. I want to get up and go for a walk without feeling tired or sad. I want to play with my son and not feel overwhelmed. Most of all I want to be able to talk to my husband and be so much in love again.. I miss him!

Esapic - i think a lot of people think pregnancy is easy, but i have friends currently pregnant and going through a rough time as well. it will get better trust me, with time and when the baby comes you will feel better. focus on teh fun stuff and think about the good things to come. have you tried talking to your husband about what’s going on? or maybe think about couples counseling, that could help to bring you closer. stay strong, you will get through this time. and i’m sure you are a great mother and wife, you are probably just being hard on yourself because of how you feel. enjoy the time with your son and think about what you do for him and the family instead of what you don’t do.

Esapic Welcome, from what you describe you already have all those things you want & need in life, is difficult to see & realize them until later on sometimes. Hormones can create havoc & play a big role in how one is feeling inside. We're all here to talk with when you feel like it & would be good to calmly talk it through w/your husband after hes home for an hour or so after work, dinners finished, sons in bed & then there will be no interruptions & hubby will be more relaxed/open to listen to what you feel, he'll probably give you a big hug & let you know it will be ok. We care about you, talk it through w/us if hes to tired/busy right now.

Take care of you.

Esapic - you are so sweet to ask how i’m doing with everything you have going on. stress comes and goes and i try to not let it get the better of me. how are you doing today? hope things are going well.

April, Everything is going good exept its 2am and i am up eating popcorn hehehehe... I had a taste for something and this itch wont go away!! I hate the itch that comes with being pregnant. At least it comes with mine. Thank you for asking :))I love how you both are being such great people for me so express my feelings :) Thank you and god bless both of you! Victoria, As for the day it was good did a lot of relaxing with my husband and son.. I seen the movie Alice And The Wonderland with my son it was such a weird movie!! But I still thought It was a good movie for having such wierd parts in it :)) How are the both of you?? I want to know everything has been about me... Tell me about yourself :) Have a beautiful night and thank you again.

YUMMY POPCORN, now I'm gonna wonder why later I'm craving popcorn HA. I'M making Beef Stew for dinner hope I get SOME as my 6'4" 200lb 18yr. old son will eat all of it before I get to it UGH.

The new movie Alice in Wonderland???? if so I saw the previews of that & it looked trippy, good graphics, bet your son enjoyed that huh.

Do get some much needed rest cause lord knows your not gonna get any sleep when the baby comes. My grandson just turned 1yr. & boy I need more eyes in the back of my head, am concerned I dont have enough energy to keep up w/him :(

Big HUG my friend.

April, How are you? Me on t he other hand a bit stressed out the Baby Shower is this weekend and still so many things I have to get done! With a little bit of relaxation and concentration I know I will be fine though :))

I tryed to eat popcorn the other day and the smell drove me nuts LOL.. I cant believe that just the other day It was so good.. Yum Your food sounds yumi TOO.. You should send me a plate:) He he he

Tell me about it! I was at the grocery store today and my son was singing and she says o boy your going to have your hands full when the next one comes.. I just looked her way and said yea but I think she will mellow him out.. Than I started to think and said O boy Im in trouble! LOL

Tell me how you have been.. Muah and thanks for keeping up with me your a great soul..

have an amazing time at your baby shower this weekend? i know you are stressed out now, but i am sure you will have a great time, and when you see those cute clothes it will make you happy that you have a little one coming. and i’m sure two kids will be busy, but they will be great. i have a nephew and niece who are little and really close in age. they have a ton of energy but are the cutest things and i love all the time i spend with them. something about them just always melts my heart and makes me smile.

hope you are feeling good today!

I'm hoping the next grand baby is a girl as I've never gotten to experience buying girly things would be kinda different instead of slimy things the boys always liked YUK, but I was a good sport about it.

I know what you mean about the smell thing (changes alot) when my oldest lived at home he would use too much cologne & then his girlfriend (now his wife) would come over & she'd be wearing some lemony smelling perfume & chewing water melon gum.....all the different smells made my head spin..... :(........Now its "what the heck are they feeding my grandson" whoah!!!!!!

I'll send over some beef stew asap......
