Hi Tia, Yes, quite a few mums I know have been through this, it's more common than people realise, actually. One friend told me she felt really low and anxious during her second trimester, and at first she thought it was just normal pregnancy tiredness, but it went deeper than that. The hormonal changes can genuinely affect your mood, and it's not something to brush off or feel bad about. Some mums found that talking to their doctor early made a big difference, whether it was counselling, adjusting their support system, or sometimes other options their specialist suggested.
