FTM to you Dads

My husband and I have issues, simply put. We're seeking counseling...married a year on 3/29. My husband loves to piss me off by just laying in bed, turning the other way and not always kissing me or holding me good night. It causes the biggest fights and carries into most of the next day. Last night he resorted to sleeping in the guest room, he doesn't often but it's become his go to place in the middle of these stupid tiffs.

Last night in particular he had just been out drinking with friends for 5 hours, came home pissy, and then practically demanded/asked if I was coming to bed. We got ready, he was in first as usual, and refused to really acknowledge me. I'm pregnant, more emotional than usual. I need this loving. Didn't ask for full blown sex just a kiss.

Help!!! I don't know how to get all this into his head. He's a father now, were 20 weeks along, it's only going to get harder, how do I give him the reality check he needs??

    I'm glad you are in counseling. I imagine your counselor will have more specific advice than we will.

    I imagine the whole good night kiss thing is a symptom of a bigger problem, which I hope will come out in counseling. I wish you the best of luc

    I have to agree.  Sounds like there is more going on here.  You guys are doing the right thing by going to counseling.

    I have to think the goodnight kids thing may be a part of a bigger issue. That said, for the final month or so of pregnancy, I couldn't give my wife one. The movement of the bed caused her to get very nauseous. It was hard on both of us.
