In short, antenatal depression affects some women during pregnancy. Often times it is caused by stress that pregnancy can bring such as: unplanned pregnancy, worrying about if you can afford the baby, stress your body is physically under, etc etc. It typically makes a women symptoms such as disinterest in sex, disconnection to the baby, sadness and even thoughts of suicide. The ways to get past this depression is trying to relax as much as possible, managing stress, talking about your anxieties and spending time with loved ones. Often people go to counseling. It seems to me that the key to coming out of this depression is the woman taking care of herself and making sure to relax as much as possible among other things such as antidepressants if it is serious enough.
Hope that helped!
