My SO is super sweet. He's been sleeping on the couch so I have more room and can sleep better in our bed. He's all, "You're pregnant now and you really need your sleep." He's quite the bedhog anyway so it really can make sleeping difficult at times.
My DH has been very sweet. He rubbed my feet last night. And he always kisses my belly. He is adorbs!
@catlady2015 My DH has been sleeping on the couch for months. Hahaha. But that's because he stays up later than me and falls asleep watching TV. Although, he said he wanted to sleep in the bed again, he doesn't want his alarm to wake me up. I am fine having the whole bed to myself!
DH is being super sweet. He was traveling for work and wasn't supposed to be home until Saturday afternoon called yesterday to say he was on his way home early. He also suggested we drive up to my parents house to tell them I'm pregnant. It's about a 4 hour drive and he kind of hates making the trip just because it really takes up the entire weekend. We were going to go Memorial Day because of the 3 day weekend, so between that and him just getting back from traveling I did not expect him to suggest going up, but I'm really happy about it. (I called my sister who lives home still to make sure they would be around so they have no idea we're coming. I told her I was surprising them for Mother's Day since we can't go next weekend.)
I’m gonna be the Debbie downer (or the bitter Betty ; ) ) here and say my H is being pretty guarded. *TW* In fairness, we’ve had 2 losses (one before DD and then one CP literally last cycle) and he took especially the first one really hard and it still affects him in weird ways even though it was two years ago and we have our rainbow now. *End TW*.
I do think he is starting to come around a bit more. He’ll talk about the pregnancy and the possibility of having two kids soon now where as for the first week + he didn’t even want to bring it up.
He is a great guy and I know he’s excited and o totally don’t blame him for being nervous.

Unfortunately my DH hasn’t been very understanding. I’ve been really down and moody this week and I’m TRYING not to take it out on him, but i can’t help but be snappy. Especially when he does things like “help” get our kid dressed and then throw the clothes he took off him in three different directions.
@BitterBetty12 I love DH so much and he is a great man. But he has yet to express any excitement at all about this pregnancy. **TW I think he’s just really guarded. I’ve had 3 losses and no birthsand I think he just can’t believe it will happen. Tbh, I am a bit the same way. End TW**
My wife has been pretty great so far. She's really excited! She's also a bit scared of my mood swings. I'm normally very even-keeled and level-headed. She's the feisty italian one! So it's an adjustment. I just keep telling her I get to be the moody one now and she needs to deal with it!

DH has been pretty great! He’s offered to cook and pick up dinner whenever he can so I don’t have to worry about it. He’s also taking me away for the weekend - all his idea!
