Depresión during pregnancy

Jormary

Hi guys I’m currently 19 weeks pregnant with baby number four . I have 3 daughters Ages 6,5,and 2 . I want to explain because I really need to vent with someone. In September we found out we were expecting baby number 4 . My husband and I were to excited, at the end of September my mother in law moved in with us with her adopted kids . I stared school in October than my father in law need it a place to stay too we get him a place as well. During that period of time it was very overwhelming I don’t know how I pass my classes tbh. She moved out by the end of October and only my father in law remind . Their drama is being consuming us . We have let him borrow money . Our financial have been to the roof because of helping them . Every day is something. Sometimes we take the kids in because we don’t want them to stay home alone . Now my husband and I had been distance . All the joy that I have for baby I don’t feel it anymore. All I do is cry , stress and worry because all of this . Im supper mad and depress because all of this. This is my last baby and my experience had been an nightmare. Is not fair for this baby she’s very well wanted .

One things that I want to share with you is that you Don‘t owe anyone an explanation as to why you feel a certain way. Pregnancy depression is real and many women suffer silently. So thankyou for sharing that with us. It wasn’t easy and it took a lot of courage. Some measurements that helped me was a support system. My mum helped me with daily tasks, encouraged me to pray daily and also helped me find soneone ( a professional) to talk to. Also in my church my pastor and his wife are regularly in prayer sessions with me and my husband. Through bible studies, prayer, talking about it. I must admit I‘m much better now than I was a couple of weeks ago. I used to view my pregnancy as a burden, a punishment and just overall didn‘t like it and didn’t want to be it. I‘m not all the way there but I know god won’t let me down, so I choose to trust him.

I‘m so sorry to hear that. But try to open up to a doctor. They might know a psychiatrist that could help. Also try and pray for yourself. I know it’s easier said than done but life and death are in the power of our tongue. Try to speak positively about you and your baby. Heavenly father, Thankyou for waking me up today. Thankyou for providing me with breath, with health and strength. Father you‘ve kept me here for a purpose and I‘m grateful for you allowing me to fulfill mine. Thankyou for bringing new life into my life, my family and here on Earth. I pray that my baby will be a blessing not just for us but everyone around it. The bible tells us that we should unload our thoughts and worries onto him. I give you my health. I give you pregnancy and my baby. I won‘t be able to do anything on my own. I need you to guide me. I need you to enlighten me and I need you to strengthen me for this new adventure called motherhood. ... In Jesus Name in I pray Amen 🙏🏾 Hope this prayer will help. Fill it, change it using your own words.
