Hello, I have a drs appt tmr but I am currently 8weeks pregnant with #2 and also have a 7month old. I have since I was about 4weeks been extremely exhausted, emotional, crying at the drop of a hat, feeling very overwhelmed with everything (another baby on the way/house stuff/bills/business to run).... I sometimes just want to pack up and run away for a night or two. I have spoken to my other half and he understands but still doesn't help. I don't know how else to deal with these emotions/feelings (crying as I type) so my question is... Is this pregnancy related hormonal stuff or possible depression? As I said I have an appt tmr to talk to the dr but just after some advice from ppl that have been in this situation? As I never felt this with my first. TIA.

I've not been in your position but just want to say hang in there. I'm sure the dr will be able to help sort out if this is normal pregnancy hormone/ depression or a combo of both. My only advice is give yourself a break, don't do things that really can wait. Is there friends or family you could reach out to for support?
I am the same boat. But with a four year Old and I'm 12 weeks now and still not feeling better. My housework has literally been put on hold for the last 6 weeks. When your feeling so crappy around its now what you want to worry about!
Just worry about yourself and your babies! Everything will work out! Pregnancy send hormones all over the place ! Just last night I started crying because I couldn't drain the potatoes? Crazy!
