Probably if you would be actually depressed, you would have hard time considering such a big life changes.
In my earlier post, I was just thinking your baby as you seemed to guess, because your post sounded to me like you don't like being a mother. Do as you want, do what you want.
Btw, why people use these smileys who blink eye for you? It's serious weirdness and kinda scary.

Excuse me? First of all, don't tell me where my post does and doesn't belong. I do not need to explain anything to you, or tell you what my "clinical diagnosis" is. But , just for the hell of it , I will. I have had clinical depression, along with Anxiety since I was a kid. I have been to many Dr.'s and on many different depression medications. I also have ppd. (postpartum depression) I'm currently taking an anti depressant as well as an Anti anxiety medication and have been seeing a therapist for almost 2 years. And who are you to tell me if I was "actually depressed" I wouldn't be considering "such big life changes." Are you in my head? Do you know me? Everyone is different, and if you read through my post thoroughly you would have seen that I was having a hard time doing anything, even though I want to. You should REALLY watch what you say to people, especially if you don't know their story.
You wanted to know "what exactly my question was". I didn't ask a question in that post, not anywhere. It's called venting and since you're new to this site I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you don't know what ranting or venting is. Sometimes people like to write out their feelings, and it helps when people who can understand, or feel the same can offer some input or support.
I NEVER said I didn't like being a Mother, I said I feel kind of lost at the moment, and that I don't feel I was designed to be a STAY AT HOME Mother, people parent in different ways, and just because you don't want to stay at home all the time doesn't mean you are any less of a mother, or that you love your child any less.
Keeping in mind (again) that you're new....I will give you a friendly suggestion...don't get on a forum and tell people what is/isn't wrong with them. If you don't like what you're reading, move along. This site isn't about Drama or bashing people for things they write, and you will make a bunch of enemies very fast. We're here for support, not belittlement.
And the smiley (

) is called a wink, btw.
