    Hun, there is nothing wrong with you. What you are experiencing is pregnancy hormones. It is all perfectly normal and will go away shortly.

    You are undergoing hormonal change and don't worry, so far what you've described is normal. Insecurities do kick in. The important thing to remember is, you have a life developing inside you. A baby as a source of joy for both you and your boyfriend. The baby feels your depression too. So stay happy as much as possible...

    Because there is something to celebrate when your bundle of joy comes out. :)

    I may be dry skin, which is normal with pregnancy also. Try Eucerna skin cream. It works wonders.

    Get the stuff in the tub, not in the tube. There is a difference. Make sure whatever you get does not have alcohol in it.

    The only thing you can do is to just understand that this can happen. When you feel yourself welling up one way or the other just take a deep breath and repeat "this will all be over soon, this too shall pass"

    Welcome to pregnancy... Be thankful it isn't more than one cause you get a double dose of the hormones with twins... lol... ;) It's all normal and you can get through it. Your at a time in your pregnancy where your hormones are peaking. In a week or two they will level out and your body will be better adjusted. I hope... lol :p Hang in there, remember you can always vent to us too... we've all pretty much been through this so our feelers won't be hurt if you need to. Just try and keep it PC.

    The itching could also be a result of your skin stretching. I suffered on my belly and breasts...

    I agree with everone else on the hormones thing... just wait soon you'll be crying at every huggies comercial on TV... or any one with kids in it... the one that gets me right now is that one with the little chinese boy going to school for the first time, and the pregnant couple buying the house... its a bank commercial... I start bawling...

    Have you been diagnosed bipolar by a doctor? What were you taking prior to the pregnancy?

    Please talk to your doctor about this. There are some meds that work, antidepressants like Celexa are okay. But only your doctor can tell you the ones that would work best for you.
