Stress , how can I avoid it?!

teesabree

I am newly pregnant , first time & even though I’m only 6 weeks the emotions are hitting me hard & my bf, the babies father(who I am in a relationship w) is not very understanding at all. I will call him when I’m upset about something to make me feel better & he just calls me dramatic & says I’m annoying. This really hurts because it’s something we both claimed to be ready for & wanted but he makes me feel like I’m in this alone, which makes me resort to saying he doesn’t have to stay around we can break up & I’ll let him know when I’m going into labor because I really feel like majority of my stress is coming from him & feel like the entire pregnancy would be easier w/o him involved. Will I ever stop being so sensitive? Am I being dramatic & annoying & would I be wrong to not involve him at all until the birth? Also what are some ways you ladies keep your stress down? As I said this is my first pregnancy & I know stress is critical in this stage in pregnancy . I don’t want to lose my baby because of him . Please help

Sounds like it might be best to talk to a third party, by yourself and as a couple. Let your doctor know about any stress and anxiety, and see if they can refer you to someone. Best of luck!

Have you explained to him how he's making you feel? It almost sounds to me like he wasn't ready, but I could be wrong. I think you two definitely need to talk about things, if he's this annoyed by pregnancy hormones, he's going to have a rude awakening when the baby is born.
