Is being depressed while pregnant normal?

Question

I just feel gloomy and sad, I know I should be happy because I have a little angel growing inside me but I don’t know why am I feeling like this... so many thoughts going through my mind... :(

Answer

yes I believe so. I get these horrible feeling of dread or sadness every once in a while out of nowhere & I cry all the time. But I've also went through so much in this pregnancy. I am 24 weeks. I also have a history of depression but being pregnant made it way worse.

Answer

I think it is fairly common but also, unfortunately, a taboo. I had depression in the first two months despite the fact that the baby was expected and I did not know where to turn.

Answer

I wouldn’t say normal but it is common

Answer

I’m 14 weeks. Definitely feeling depressed. Mostly because of my body. I’ve always been small and fit - I can’t even stand to look at myself naked right now. 😔 I don’t even look pregnant, just fat.
