hi Mm8kids, this must be traumatic for you, and although I'm not qualified to say but have you been diagnosed with PND.
This is something you can't just 'get over it' and it's unfortunate that he has made you fall pregnant 8 times and should be more understanding in helping you in any way possible.
You have to get him to look after the kids while you book an appointment with your doctor, this is something you need to try and have the strength to do, because you can't stay at home and still struggle with your depression while coping with 8 kids, if your doctor does home visits that maybe another way around this, but please at least ring them up. Geoff.
