Postpartum depression while pregnant?

Question

I've heard that it's possible to develop postpartum depression while you're pregnant. Is this true? And if it is, what would it feel like?

Answer

Yes, but it's called prenatal/antenatal depression. I had it while I was pregnant but it was mild so I ignored it. Then I developed full blown postpartum depression that was totally debilitating for weeks. I'm not saying that will happen necessarily but if you think you're depressed, please please talk to your doctor now.

Answer

I don't know that it would be termed "postpartum" if you're still pregnant but if you're feeling sad or upset to the point of asking this question  you should talk to your doctor about what you're feeling.

Answer

Yes I did I got it with my first pregnancy you feel guilty all the time low mood all the time
