Is random depression in pregnancy normal?

Question

I'm 33 weeks and I got here to work today (work in the medical field 🙄😭) and I sat down and was like.. I really do not want to be here. Nothing bad happened.  I just feel like I have the blues. I would rather be at home getting ready for my baby girl rather than working in this pandemic.  I dont even want to talk to my co workers or the doctor I work for. Normal?? Hormones? Crazy ass world we live in right now??

Answer

Ive had this on and off throughout the pregnancy.  With all the hormones and the state of the world right now and the fact that you work in the medical field (thank you btw) I think its totally normal

Answer

I would say with what’s going on in the world plus your super heightened hormones that it’s completely normal. I also had days like that during my pregnancy.

Answer

I experience this- I’ve dealt with PTSD and depression for more than 12 years and during times of stress or when my hormones are unbalanced it is always worse and comes and goes. I can’t imagine this NOT being normal for women to experience.

Answer

Im having that right now.. 16 weeks pregnant.... 😣like its feeling down for no reason. Its normal though it doesn’t last alll day for me just before sleep i feel it. If it gets bad for you though, i would see a doctor about it. Just try to keep ur mind busy thats what i do..when i feel like that i either watch youtube, or do something around the house like clean something or watch a movie or even take a nap even .
