My depression, was entirely antepartum, as in the 9 months preceding the birth. I felt so good to have my abdomen back, it didn't bother me that I had to sit on a donut, I could barely walk and I had 7 migraines in 3 weeks. I was clinically depressed during, but not after. Antepartum depression is often overlooked because it is not as common as postpartum, but it still happens. For me, I am not sure about the chicken and egg thing with the depression and the constant nausea--at some point they probably reinforced each other. I am still amazed that anyone does this process more than once!
