Going to give it a shot. *Update*

Ever since I found out I was pregnant, my boyfriend and I have been drifting apart. Maybe from the anxiety, the hormones, knowing things will change forever, i can't pinpoint exactly when or why. I realized I no longer was turned on when he wanted to have sex, so I have been turning him down. We stopped being affectionate. We began bickering constantly, everyday it was something new. I shouldve got a full gallon of milk, not the half gallon. He didnt tell me we had to be somewhere by 11, so he was angrily rushing me out the door as if I shouldve known already. If he did cuddle me, it would last a couple minutes before he'd get a boner and try to bang. He stopped surprising me with anything lovely (he use to get me my favorite chocolate bar and little things)- I stopped trying to please him with backrubs or sweet gestures of my own. I sat up most the night contemplating how I would breach the topic that I know we both feel looming.

Well, this morning we both woke up early. I pretended to be asleep so he wouldnt try to have sex. He left for work without saying a word.

Once he was gone, I decided maybe it was up to me to try to move us in the right direction instead of talking about giving up. I know we want to try to make it work for our child's sake. So, I've been cleaning this entire house top to bottom, every room, fan blades, sweeping under the couch, you name it, ALL the laundry is done and essential oils are making the place smell nice. I sent him a good morning text a few hours after he left, so he would think i slept in. 7 hours later it is spotless. I hope he's happy with this surprise and that he is surprised when he walks in. I asked him to text me before he heads home so I can have dinner ready for him and he sent me smiley faces and hearts for the 1st time in months. I've been feeling like he needed to put more effort into our relationship and since he was not, I stopped as well. But i realized he might be feeling the same way about me. Like I said, I'm not sure when things shifted.

So I decided I am going to put that effort in and see if he reciprocates these positive feelings. I'm going to show him some much missed and needed affection tonight. Wish me luck💕

**Mission was a success**

He came in and first he complimented the smell of dinner cooking, "It smells GOOD in here!!" Then when he walked into the living room he said "Wow, it looks good in here too!"

Impressed at how much work I did in one day. He was hugging on me and kissing on me so much I could hardly plate dinner.

After we ate I came into the bedroom and lit some tea lights, and put on a sexy outfit, thankfully he was looking away when I came out, So could say "let me know when you're ready for your backrub" and he turned around saying "Wow! Im ready!" With the most adorable excited face.

He said "I don't know what I did to deserve this but I'm a lucky guy" before I gave him a happy ending ;) ;) (and I was really turned on for the first time in a while so it went gooood)

Now I have cookies in the oven and things are feeling really good right now.

Sometimes, you gotta spoil your man.
