This is a Trying to conceive site, maybe you could try the sister site countdownmypregnancy.

Thanks I will look into that I conceived last time using this site last year and again this year just my countdown is really short however I post here from time to time like other pregnant mommies and also try to give back and give advice to others like others have given to me. I hope my posts don't offend anyone that's definitely not my objective.

Hi, I can imagine how tough it just be for you! People only talk about how great pregnancy is but sometimes one can feel so ill and depressed that it's hard to feel happy even though you were looking forward to being pregnant. Why not go out with friends or family? Have a lil pamper time and it might make you feel better. I'm sure your hubby is just stressed with new responsibilities. Try and do something nice for him and tell him how much you appreciate him and what he does for your family. This might make him less stressed and also understanding towards you. Do things you enjoy and don't seek happiness through others, then you will feel more in control. Take care and just remember how blessed you are to be pregnant when millions of women are still trying! God bless!

I'm a little over 8 weeks along and I too am experiencing depression. Pregnancy isn't all about glowing and feeling wonderful. It can be wretched (so I'm finding out). Please take it one day at a time and open up to your husband in a non confrontational way. Chances are he's feeling the same way you are. Together you two will get through this.
