Hey ladies, anyone's relationship in a funny spot atm? 😁

Question

Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat, feels like being super pregnant + no sex + stress of having a baby soon has made things a bit funny in our relationship 😁 we do argue occasionally and it's gotten worse than our pre pregnancy arguments and I think it's causing a strain on us... if you've had a baby before and went through this did things settle down after the birth? We've always been solid and I know I'm with a good person it's just difficult to see sometimes with the stress. I'm struggling to feel close to him as we aren't having sex atm (his choice) and spend our days doing different things. ATM I feel like we're more housemates than partners 😢

Answer

I need to know the same thing, this is what I'm currently going through and I just want it to get better soon

Answer

We're going through the same thing right now. I think it's all the hormones and anticipation of baby. With out first it took a while to get back to normal but just hang in there. Try and take the time to do stuff together while you have the time because when baby comes that becomes everything and you have no time or energy for each other for a while. At least that was my experience. ☺️ just remember you love each other and try to find small ways to show each other that. It'll get you through the weird and tiring time.

Wow... I feel like I could have written this post myself! Thanks for opening up about it. I also feel this way with my hubby. It's almost like a disconnect. I'm 35 weeks now and it's a feeling that seems to have progressed over time - especially in this last trimester, but it feels like it started halfway through this pregnancy. I can only attribute it to hormones. I wonder if it's because we go through so very much (physically and mentally) in pregnancy, that it's hard to relate to those closest to us - who just aren't going through the same thing? Anyway, it's nice to be able to log in to this message board and see that you're not alone ❤️. 
I'd also love to hear if someone has gone through this and how things changed after they actually had their baby.

Answer

Our relationship is a whole new place I've never expected. Lol. We argue over the silliest things. 
During this pregnancy we've argued twice over who would do laundry. He always does it, so I offered to do it instead. But he also wanted to do it. So we literally argued over who would be the one to do it since we both wanted to. 
We've also argued over whether or not Dragon Ball Z collectibles are nursery decor. 🤦🏽‍♀️
And we've argued about what's considered gender neutral lol. 
But at the end of the day, it's all been amazing. And I can't believe we're down to 16 days. He's the best person in the world and I couldn't have done this without him.
