I am sure there are many options available for you, even thru pregnancy.
I know that you said you were in therapy, but are you still and do you feel that it is helping you, are you being exposed to CBT or is it just talk therapy?
Something that I have found lately is that there are lots of OverTheCounter remedies. I have been taking 5-HTP for sometime now and find it to be very helpful. Not as good as if I was on Cymbalta, but thats a different story. GABA is a natural serotonin related product, there are others. You can check with health food store or nutrition stores. Theres also some relief thru carb diets. Someone on this site has written a book about carbs and there relation to moods. Theres also Light therapy. Many different things can help you without hurting your body or your baby.
Hope this helps some, If you need to write Im always around.
