I got depressed in my last pregnancy too. I think it’s the constant fatigue and morning sickness in the 1st trimester. I remember in my first pregnancy it went away sometime in the first trimester, but right now it’s kicking my butt and I have 1 year old twins to take care of. They’re waking up from their nap, playing in their cribs together, and I’m dreading getting them up! How awful is that? They’re happy right now and I’m on my way in… sigh. But does anyone have any advice? I don’t want to take pills.

Thanks!
