That's an understatement!

God. Here I am 14 weeks pregnant, supposedly meant to be one of the most joyous times of my life - and I am probably the most depressed I think I've been since my teens.

The one big cause for my depression is that I don't have the obligatory supportive partner (preferaby a husband)

I long to be married and/or be in a commited relationship with someone who actually wants to be with me where we can share things and love and care and forgive and be intimate and enjoy each others company and encourage one another and enjoy our family . .. where we can respect each other's differences and value each other as individuals. Where we can do special lovely things for each other. .. I guess I must just be dreaming. . . I am a dreamer. . .

I'm afraid for the future. . I know God will pull me and bub through. . I guess there is always hope for a significant other who really and truly loves us and doesnt just say the words. . . but means it as well.

I don't know why long so much for this . .. I do enjoy my own company. . . . . it's just nice to be with someone you feel safe and secure . .

Thanks for reading my rant..

Sometimes being pregnant magnifies everything. Hormones raging through your body can make mood swings very hard. I am sorry that you don't have someone right now to share this time but dont give up as one doesn't know what the future holds. It can be lonely being by yourself especially at a time such as you are experiencing. I hope you find someone soon as it seems to be bothering you a lot.

I am glad that you and the baby are healthy or gather that from your post. Please take care.

Being pregnant is hard work mentally and psychically, whether it’s your first child or your sixth. Each pregnancy is different. Your hormones are running wild, and all of the slightest fears and doubts are magnified 100 times; especially if this is your first child. The good new is this should start balancing out soon, for a bit, and come back and hit you again late in your third trimester. Utilize your support network, family and friend all are eager to help. You’re pregnant, you deserve a little pampering. When you start feeling lonely remember that in a few months you’ll never be alone again. You are about to discover a love that, unless you have children already, you have never even contemplated yet. The most joyous time of your life will be when they hand you that brand new baby that is all yours.

Congratulations and I wish you and your baby the best of health and happiness.
