Relationship problems?

Question

Did anyone else's relationship change after pregnancy? 
Are you closer & happier?
Are you having more problems than before? 
Are you scared? Is he ?

Answer

I think it has definitely caused more arguments. My oh is sometimes not sympathetic to what I'm going through and with my hormones it just leads to arguments!

Answer

My boyfriend and I are happy and have been for a while (: having a baby didn't bring us closer together, we were already close. But it taught us how to have more patience and to live a healthy lifestyle, which has brought happiness in general. (:

Answer

While I was pregnant I was super hormonal but he stuck through it so that started bringing us even closer. Our daughter is born and we talk through problems and were super close. A baby isn't for fixing relationships though.

Answer

my so definitely doesn't get that I can't control my hormones and we argue a lot. however we always make up about 10 minutes later. we're both just super hard headed. sometimes he gets mad at me, because he feels like I'm not being serious enough about the baby, but I really am.

Answer

We grew apart a lot and have been working hard to get back to where we were. I can't say it was just a baby though. We are both at the stage where our careers are taking off and he's very focused on his. I'm taking a huge step back with this baby to be more focused on the kids and I think removing that stress will bring us all closer together.

Relationships are hard no matter what, add a kid and you simply get less time to work on it

Answer

We are doing great overall. He started driving a truck shortly after we found out I was pregnant so sadly, I don't see him everyday like I wish I could. Also, our sex life has slowed down...a lot. Between him not being here often and me feeling like a beached whale, not much happens in the bedroom beyond sleep. On a positive note, even though we aren't as physical, I feel like romantically, we've grown as a couple. I loved him before but seeing how much he loves our child already makes me love him even more. We've also had to learn to work as a team even more now that we have a baby on the way. He is a "mama's boy" so I sometimes felt like I had to give up a lot of my time with him to her. He still respects her but I feel like I have more of his time now that the baby's coming. He's even started sticking up for me when she disagrees with me...it's refreshing.

Answer

My fiancé and I have gotten a lot closer since I've been pregnant. I love it!

Answer

We are closer and more in love. Yes stressed at times bc of money and worry - which is normal. But it has brought us closer together. My husband generally likes to be informed and research. He's done his research on all sorts of pregnancy topics and it's so nice that he can be understanding. The other day he kept on about what I should eat more of now that I'm in my third trimester. I love him, he is great support... And an awesome cook🙊

Answer

Def growing apart. He's never around. He resents me now I feel. Especially since we are having a girl and not a boy. He thinks his life is over or something. It's not fair, he hasn't done a DAMN thing to help prepare for this child, but he tries to act like he doesn't understand what he's done wrong. He still smokes, and acts like it's not a big deal. I told him I WONT tell him if I go into labor if he hasn't quit because as a mammal, I see him and his 3rd hand smoke as a THREAT to our child. He still hasn't quit and won't. He's just a ball of excuses and won't step up. I don't know why. I feel like a single mom already, and I'm due in 1 week. FTM

Answer

We are close 
Both excited 
I'm nervous about birth at this stage as I don't know if I'm natural or c section
