[quote=Anonymous]I'm almost 8 weeks pregnant and have been feeling really down and depressed over the past few days - I can't seem to shake it. I thought I'd be joyfull and walking on air at this point as this is a much-wanted pregnancy and DH and I tried for almost a year before conceiving. Instead, I feel terribly sad. It's to the point where I'm having a hard time focusing on work and am not interested in social interaction. I'm anxious and guilty that I feel this way. I should be jumping for joy and am instead fighting to stay optimistic and positive. I don't have a history of depression. The last time I felt this way was immediately after my daughter was born and I had a case of the baby blues (it never developed into full PPD). Is this just the hormones at play? Anyone else encounter this? [/quote]
