I’m a first time mom, and I haven’t felt like myself at all lately. I’ve been moody and irritable, it’s been the worst thing ever. I don’t even feel happy around the people I love most. It’s nothing to do with them, it’s me. All I want to do is sleep, and I feel terrible (achey, and had some headaches). Is this a normal thing? Does it go away and get better?

I don’t want to stay like this our whole pregnancy. I hate myself. Please tell me there’s hope.
