HELP!!!

AFMama

This is my first time posting a discussion. I'm 16 weeks and 5 days pregnant. My husband is deployed in Korea, and seems to be more distant from me lately. He's been acting different, and I haven't gotten an "I love you" in a few days.. Am I just too emotional? And should I tell him that I feel he's becoming distant?

FFS. Yes, if you're feeling a certain way about his behavior he would probably be the appropriate person to bring it up with.

I agree with everyone else, communication is huge, especially when you spend long periods of time apart from your SO

I feel concern for you, since you are asking strangers on the interwebz whether or not you should talk to your husband about your relationship. Who else (besides us) were you planning on discussing it with instead?

It doesn't matter how hormonal you are, or how far away your husband is. You guys are having a kid together. It would probably be beneficial that you have a healthy line of communication.

@AFMama Sympathies. Been there, done that, with the military deployments. I know how hard it can be when you're apart for a long time and opportunities for communication are often quite limited. His seeming distant well may have nothing at all to do with you, but with stuff he's going through with the mission. If you're in need of additional emotional support, the family center & chaplaincy service can be really good resources, and might even be able to help him get more time to communicate with you.

Omg, I came on this thread expecting to read that OP was trapped in a well and needed Lassie. A tad dramatic, much?

Go ask your husband what's going on. Chances are it might not even be about you right now, seeing as though he's deployed. Either way, go ask him.

I know me too! Or something on that level.

I can't imagine how hard it must be to have your husband deployed while you're pregnant. You very well may be blowing the issue up in your mind, but you should definitely talk to him.
