Why didn't LAURA want her husband to...
... tell RICHIE about how they had met? Is it because he starts talking about how he ALREADY had plans for their future? She doesn't want to be reminded that her life isn't about what SHE wants?
shareI think it has a lot to do with what you said, yes. Also I think the story is too emotionally difficult for her to hear because she and her husband see the situation so differently. Her husband presents it as an idea of their happiness, whereas for her it was anything but.

There isn't always a reason for depression. Sometimes a person's brain chemicals become imbalanced. Sometimes it runs in families. It's also possible the pregnancy hormones had something to do with it.
Kitty's illness was meant to be a catalyst for Laura's breakdown. We don't find out what happened to her because it wasn't pertinent to the story. What was important was how it affected Laura.
