1st pregnancy 6 weeks .. think I’m suffering with pre natal depression

[c644775]

Hello I am 24 been with partner 8 years and was ttc for a total of 13 months here and there

Got my bfp at 4w 3d and I was over the moon so excited and happy and so was my partner

however the last week my mood has changed so much I am getting so angry at my partner I’m questioning if I love him we are about to buy a house and I’m questioning that and now I am regretting my pregnancy even though it was planned

I do suffer with OCD however have got it under control and super manageable over the past year and a half though therapy and medication

but I have been an emotional wreck for a week I am crying uncontrollable every evening and feel like I’ve made a mistake all I want is to go back into my bubble of feeling happy again

did anyone else go through this and did it get better? Is it the hormones? I Think I just need some advice as I am really struggling and feel like a terrible person right now

It's called being pregnant. Very normal.

Hormones are very high in the first trimester and the thoughts I had during mine were certainly not my own! It was hard at the time but things did level out, looking back now I laugh at myself thinking how could those thoughts have even crossed my mind! It gets better :)

Sorry to hear you're feeling this OP. As you say you have OCD I would definitely mention this to your midwife. Sadly pregnancy and childbirth can exacerbate symptoms. Hope you start to feel better.
