Answer 2

Becoming pregnant can bring with it feelings of depression, and these occur in many to-be mothers, but it is not necessarily normal. If you are feeling depressed, please consult with your GP and family, and make them aware of this, and take steps to feel better.

Answer 3

It depends, were you already depressed when you got pregnant? If so, then with pregnant hormones, your hormones will play a number on you. Try to go to the library and read up on these issues you feel you might have. If you feel alot worse, I strongly recommend you go see a doctor (O.B.G.Y.N) so they can determine whats the cause of anything. Best wishes for the both!
