Anybody else feeling very needy?

babyW15

For the past 2-3 weeks I have been very needy. I want to be around N every second of every day. I know it is just hormonal but it is like I just want to be with him no matter what. Whenever we are on the couch I want to cuddle as close as I can and whenever we are driving somewhere I have to be touching him. If we go out to dinner then I have to sit next to him and when we go to bed we have to fall asleep holding hands. He doesn't mind it and understands it is hormonal but I am afraid I am driving him crazy! Anyone feel this way?

Yup! I feel the exact same way. I find myself a lot more dependent on MH and clingy than I was pre-pregnancy. I also worry a lot more now that something may happen on the long commute to work, etc.

Definitely. I think he's feeling the same way, he usually goes out for runs, to the store, etc, but lately he's just been staying in with me. I don't feel the need to physically touch him constantly, but I do feel like I need him within earshot and get really anxious when I don't know where he is.

I'm always needy of my dh, he makes me happy and I love having him around. Lately I have been a bit more hormonal so I think I have been more needy in the sense of wanting him to be right next to me when possible

Nope, not at all. I love my DH, but I'm pretty independent person and cuddling annoys me.

Yeah, not me at all. I generally disliked being touched a lot. The only person I like to cuddle is my little girl. I get annoyed with my husband because he always tries to touch and cuddle and I hate it, I feel mean but it is not my thing.

I think we are cut from the same cloth on this one.

Yep. I'm the same way. Dh is a very touchy-feely kind of person and I'm just not. I like having him around and I like hanging out with him, but I definitely don't feel the need to be in constant physical contact.

I'm always somewhat needy. Right now, I am feeling more insecure than anything. I went through this much earlier on in my last pregnancy but it's pretty much just starting now. I hope it will pass soon.

Sometimes, it depends on the day. MH has been more needy than me lately though.
