why do I want to leave him?

Question

I'm 11 weeks pregnant and these hormones are hell. Before I got pregnant, my husband and I had such a great marriage. Now I pick fights with him and get furious over the tiniest things. I'm even having thoughts about leaving him and I don't know where it is coming from. He is literally the best man I know and doesn't deserve this. I just don't know what to do.

Answer

OH GURL! I did this the first trimester and thought he would divorce ME and my crazy ass 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 it gets better, babe!

Answer

You really just have to focus on trying to be nice to him and power through. I am 23w and a few weeks ago i was being sooooo SHITTY with my SO... three days straight i was just picking fights with him and it was all petty af. And not worth jeprodizing our relationship. So i had to try to change my attitude and not stress out and take it out on him. It is a hormonal problem. But it is possible to step back and try to maintain..

Answer

Oh girl the hormones get me feisty too. One of the things I have to do is figure out what's at the root of me being upset. Do I feel ignored? Do I feel like I'm doing more around the house than him? Is he not speaking my love language enough? Do I just want something to be mad at? My therapist once told me that "anger is not a root emotion" and you have to dig for the cause.

If there's not one, which is totally possible on all these fertility meds, I make it a point to just not talk unless I can say something nice or at least neutral. It sucks, but you have this app you can come rant and rave and chat on. 👍🏻👍🏻

Answer

That's how I was almost for the whole first trimester and second towards my boyfriend with our first baby. I wanted nothing to do with him and just hearing him breath bothered me so much. I still feel horrible about it but everyone told us it was just my hormones and I'm happy they were right haha. It sucks but I hope the both of you can get through it! You can try to be nice and explain to him how you feel but when you're feeling like that and sometimes have no control over it it's not always that easy. But Communication is key

Answer

It's all hormones , take a deep breath and explain to him what's wrong. And take some yoga classes or anything that relaxes you
