Since i've been pregnant, my husband and I have had fight after fight. I know emotions run HIGH when pregnant, but I just wonder if it's just me and I should stick it out...or is it time to move on? Help!
It's easy to blame things on hormones but you may be overlooking a bigger issue. Not to scare you but the fighting may get worse after LO is born. The first 6mo-1yr is very difficult on the parents b/c of exhaustion, adjusting to a new routine and caring for someone who has limited communication and in-mobile. When ppl are tired they are mean.
I suggest try counseling first if both parties are willing. It may help to have a 3rd party listen to your concerns and help you communicate through them. Also, I suggest the book Baby Proof your Marriage. GL! I've been there before.

I suggest counseling as well. You definitely don't want to make such a huge decision when you're emotional. Counseling will help you both to see what the other may be struggling with. Maybe DH is worried about finances with a new baby, or being a parent in general. In my experience and with my friends, it's more difficult for SO's to feel a connection with the baby until baby arrives. GL to you!
