1st Trimester

Vent about DH

Okay.. so I know that I am already hormonal and moody, but Im also so anxious and nervous about my first appt tomorrow..

Anyway..  I thought that I would be nice and I baked my husband a pumpkin pie, which is his favorite! When he got home he didnt even say anything about it, so it obviously put me into a bad mood.. on top of all the other things on my mind. Then when I tried talking to him a little later he was just being really short and then said I was a jerk because I got mad about the pie incident.

Im sure that he has a lot on his mind too.. but really? I dont have the emotional stability to deal with this tonight! I dont want to be in a fight to see our baby for the first time!

Re: Vent about DH

  • Just let it go- it's not worth having hard feelings for tomorrow. Your DH will NEVER understand what it's like to be pregnant and you'll never understand what it's like to wake up one day and find your wife has been taken over by hormones.

    I've learned over two pregnancies to give myself a 2-3 hour break before deciding if I'm really mad at DH or just being hormonal. I would be upset that he didn't notice the pie, but you need to let it go so you can both enjoy tomorrow.

  • I find myself getting very irritated at some of the things people say... more than normal.. so I am learning to take a deep breath... and to also choose my battles with my husband. I think your right, he has alot on his mind too. Tomorrow is a big day, and a pie is not worth fighting over. :) Good Luck tomorrow!!! :)

  • You guys are all right about stepping back first... so I took my puppy on a walk. I decided that I am going to let it go, but Im still mad about the pie thing. haha
  • If you're going to do something nice for someone, don't do it with the expectation of being thanked or worshipped because of it. 

     Say that you're upset he didn't acknowledge your effort, but leave it at that. No use starting an argument over something this small. For all you know, he had a terrible day at work, but now he can't talk about it with you because you are already upset over the pie.
