I'm not sure if this helps or not, but I'll put it out there just in case.
Remind yourself that your body is FILLED with wacky hormones right now. This may be a huge part of why you feel lousy. It does not mean that you will feel this poorly after the baby comes. In fact, you may look back at this time and think, "Gosh, I can't even remember why I felt so bad." Remind yourself that you are seeing yourself, your life, your future through the distorted lens of hormones.
I don't know from my own personal experience, but I know that some people I know did MUCH better after actually having the baby.
When are you due? You said very soon, right?
How much longer? Also, 3rd trimester is a much safer time to take stuff b/c all of the major development has already occured for the baby. Baby's mostly just putting on weight and getting bigger. But, you probably knew that. Sorry if I'm stating the obvious. But go ahead, take that baby asprin! ;)Best,
EE
