Hi - I'm in the same boat as you, 17 weeks pregnant now with my first, in my 30s, married, overwhelmed!! I was on meds and cut them all cold turkey, I think this wasn't good for my brain chemistry. Also finding it hard to focus at work. The physical changes are bad enough but add to that whacky hormones, forgetfulness, cold turkey quitting of depression meds. I've been fortunate to have a great therapist prior to becoming pregnant. He's helped me a lot.

Feel free to PM me if you want to chat, would love to discuss juggling pregnancy and depression. Other than that my only advice is to keep fighting, you need to get out of the house or you'll go crazy, maybe go for walks, whatever it takes.
