How to tell my boyfriend that a bath is not a magical cure to all my problems?
I’m 27 weeks pregnant and Idk if it’s the hormones but it’s really driving me crazy. One of my boyfriend’s coworkers told him that a warm bath always calmed his wife’s emotions during pregnancy and ever since that, it’s really ALL my boyfriend offers for any sort of comfort. If I’m upset and want him to comfort me, he says “take a warm bath”. I’ll tell him the baby is moving a lot - “take a bath”. I’ll tell him I’m tired - “take a bath”. Basically to everything 🤦♀️.
It’s sooo annoying... If I thought a bath would help or if I wanted to take one, I would do it on my own. But i haven’t said anything because I don’t know how to. I know he’s trying to be helpful but I don’t wanna keep hearing him say it. Every time he says it I think to myself “why do I even bother”. 😅
@Lulupie: I am appreciative. That’s why the post says “I haven’t said anything bc I know he’s trying to be helpful”. But I’m sure if you were almost 7 months pregnant, were hormonal af and wanted your boyfriend’s support only to hear “take a bath” to LITERALLY everything, you’d get frustrated too ☺️ And multiple other women said they’d be annoyed too so I’m not being a bitch🤷♀️🤷♀️
