Prenatal depression?

Any tips for dealing with prenatal depression? I’m 34 weeks pregnant and live alone with my husband. During the pandemic, sometimes it feels really stressful to handle work, housework, husband and other things going on. I’m just really afraid that once bby is out, I would not be able to handle everything and will breakdown and have postpartum depression. It has been okay for the past few months in my pregnancy but during these last few weeks, I have been feeling tearful, nervous and anxious and having arguments with husband (on top of the back aches and swollen feet of course) Any tips to feel better? 💕

being and feeling alone are 2 entirely separate things. your spouse is your partner and will definitely appreciate the conversation with you. the post partner journey is a tough trek by yourself. your hormones will be out of whack and require some time to heal from the stressor of labour. do ask for help. u will be surprised to find that help can come in many forms and avenues :) and always share your emotions with your hubs. cheering you on! :)
