Hi guys I’m 23 and have been trying to find support from basically anywhere, I’ve self harmed since I was 13years old and I just recently stopped when learning I was pregnant. I got pregnant under the craziest circumstances. Dating someone else cause me and the person I spent the last 5years with didn’t work learning I’m pregnant while dating another woman. She’s become so attached of my child who is still unborn and it’s really nice but she also doesn’t want him in mylife as far as my daughter. I’m huge on family relationships so I wouldn’t tell him he can’t be there but now it’s to the point to where she barely talks to me or express herself but says she didn’t check out, I’ve become so depressed and I fear relapsing especially with me having a child. I don’t want anything to happen to her and I’m scared I just can’t hold on anymore sometimes

Hi. Have you spoken to your Dr about your concern of depression? It's very important that you do. They need to monitor you closely after the baby for sure. I suffered from post partum depression but it can be controlled if you recognize it early. I'm sorry but I don't think I understand the women's relationship to you? She is your ex's girlfriend??

I’m afraid to mention my depression to anyone that can put me away to be honest I’m just scared something would keep me away from my child and no, she’s current I didn’t know I was pregnant when her and I started dating

No one can take your child away from you if you are depressed especially if you are seeking care. Unless you are in danger of hurting your child. The best thing you can do for you and the baby is to be open about your feelings to your Dr. I wish you well.

Noooooo! Stay STRONG!

I've been THROUGH IT with this pregnancy and my daughter will be out in a couple weeks or so depending on her mood lol.

I don't feel alone anymore. Its like... She's all I need. She gives me a purpose.

And post partum is something I feared I'd have as well. I actually Haven't mentioned it to my Midwife yet. Only because things haven't been that bad emotionally so I figured I wouldn't have to worry about it anymore. But the emotions you feel fitting 1st trimester comes back fitting the 3rd. Caught me so offgaurd!

Message me if you'd like!

Ttys!
