when i was 9 or 10 weeks pregnant i tried to OD & kill my baby... my plan was kill the baby, say my goodbyes, then kill myself... it didnt work & everything seems fine with the baby so far (im 21 weeks along now & go to see if its a boy or girl tomorrow)

The baby will be a joy AND will be hard, hard work. I hope you have a support system of some kind! Most labor and delivery areas in hospitals these days have a social worker that will stop in and visit you before you leave. Take every shred of information on support systems in your city (I pray that you are in a city!)
Don't be afraid to share the fact that you've been very depressed with your OBGyn. They can prescribe anti-depressants now and after the baby is delivered.
It is very difficult when you are supposed to be excited about having a baby and you aren't. Please reach out for help.
There is a plan bigger than us all. Please stick around to see what you and your kiddo have to contribute! ((HUGS))

Hi, thanks for sharing your story. I am sorry to hear that you are having such a hard time. I pray that you would find help and hope. The
fact that you and the baby are still alive is a testament to the
hope that you will find. God loves you and your baby. He can change
and redeem your life.

What can one say... it's done... but the real question is-How are you now? I observed that you said that the baby seens fine up to this point... which is good... but you are the equation to this... what is your state of mine? ,are you likely to try it again?.. yes there are med's for depression..and we can say all the nicey nice things that strangers do because that's the right thing to say..and avoid the real question needing to be asked,, it's more than just taking med's... what are you doing to deal with the issues that lead up to this...the mental state you were in didn't occur out of the blue overnight ... these things progress over a period of time

the situation was really messed up & at the time i was doing the only thing i could think of to keep my baby from having to deal with it (then i was gonna say my goodbyes, not in an obvious way b/c my friends & family would have put me on suicide watch, so that i wouldn't have to deal with killing my baby) but im glad it didnt work & that everything is ok with her (yeah its a girl) development so far :)
