Alone while pregnancy feeling depressed

2022-06-07 10:51:50
I am in my 1st trimester. My husband is not very happy with my pregnancy. He feels his freedom lost. Although it was his idea of having our own baby. I am alone at my parent's place and feel a lot of depression from time to time. Do not know if the child will have apt father care after birth. I am feeling more and more lonely and neglected. What should I do? Can some home remedies help me calm my nerves?

Home remedies that can prove to be helpful are chanting, use of therapeutic oils and physical exercise. The only problem with them is that they are highly dependent on how you practice, with what intend and under whose guidance and recommendations. A better step would be seeking counselling.

Pregnancy is a beautiful phase. Enjoy what you have. The unborn child is going through the same low emotions the way you feeling.. Men sometimes develop cold feet...and it's normal as it's a big reality in front of him... My suggestion would be cross the bridge as you come to it...why worry of how the father will behave ...when the child is not even born... So for the next 6 months enjoy the time with your child...and give him the right education in the womb....
Next Steps
You can talk to a friend or someone close to talk to understand why your husband is behaving...
Health Tips
eat healthy, sleep well and hydrate your self..

Try talking to your husband. He might be worried about what kind of father he'll be, how he can afford having a child, how his relationship with you, his wife, will change. These are not trivial issues for an expectant father. He might be having trouble talking about it and coping with it. Loss of freedom may not even be the real issue here. Look at this not as a problem but as an opportunity to connect with him.
Next Steps
Strengthen your support circle that may include friends, family and relatives.
Health Tips
Take good care of yourself and try meditation, and listening to good music and spiritual podcasts. Let the child feel that the mother cares. Keep smiling. Always.

Hi, I am sorry you are feeling this way. This is a tough time for you. Mods swings during pregnancy are common but it looks like you are feeling grief along with that. We can work on the stress that your are feeling by creating a safe space for you. We will sit in therapy and process that and figure out a way forward to talk to your husband about it. However, the first thing is always to heal yourself emotionally before taking this conversation with your husband.
Next Steps
Book a session with me and we will find a way forward. Love and healing ❤️‍

Hi, I can understand how much is difficult for you in this situation. Before thinking about future, please think about yourself and your baby as your baby is influenced by your mood and feeling and it can be harm for the fetus... So please think about present. Future has not come yet, we don't know what will happen, so worries about future, not useful now that is harmful... May be you can talk with your husband in near future and everything would be fine. So please try to make a good environment now for you and your baby... Stress and anxiety or depression can be very harmful for your child... Please listen to the music you love, try to have relaxation and meditation... Do the enjoyable things you love and find some reason to laugh during the days as it's very important for your mood and the health of your baby. Try to focus on these things instead of future. Please do take care.
Next Steps
Consult with a psychologist/therapist as soon as possible to help you feel better and relax and pass these difficult days with calm and peaceful mind.

Hi.. You can take online counselling sessions to help you deal with this situation. It will keep your mind in this right direction and help you make better life choices. You can't change what your husband feels about this baby, but you can do your part well to make it better. Having a child and accommodating other priorities in life is a difficult situation and different people react differently to it. He might be nervous about it and may be that nervousness is coming out in the form of displeasure about the whole process. You can talk to him about this but before that you need to bring your own mind in a positive state.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist. CBT along with Interpersonal Relationship Counselling is required.

Hi, I'm so sorry that you have to go through this all by yourself. It is very understandable if you feel extreme sadness, fear of doing it all by yourself. It is a sensitive time and support is crucial. Can you start writing down about your worries, talking to close friends and also take support of therapy? In this situation, a counselor can also be a solid support for you. For relaxation, start listening to guided meditation- you'll get it on online apps or even on YouTube. Start with deep breathing and reassuring yourself that you can get through this and you will be fine. Reach out to online support groups too.
Next Steps
The rest can be talked about if you choose to book an appointment. Take care of yourself.
