2nd Trimester

Going alone? or at least the feeling?

Has anybody has had the feeling like you are alone in your pregnancy? For me it could just be the hormones but I feel like my husband wants nothing to do with me. He just got a new job where pay is based on how hard you work and I have only seen him once this entire week. He comes home at like 2am from meeting with his coworkers at a restaurant/bar to discuss the day and paperwork..

Do you think its just the hormones or do you think I am justified in wanting my husband to come home at a normal time so he can go to bed at the same time as his pregnant wife? Maybe it is just an adjustment thing to

  • It's probably the hormones.

    My SO works 2 jobs so I don't see him often either. At first it bothered me, but then I realized something: if I see him a whole lot, that means he's not at his jobs, so he's not making money. I'd rather he make mone

  • Oh hell no!!  I would totally not be cool with my husband getting home at 2am, I don't care how much $$ he's bringing home with him!  Nope, don't think it's the hormones, I think you are totally justified (pregnant or not) to want him to be home

  • Yeah we are both really good with communicating our feelings and not picking stupid fights so I am trying to wait and see if I am genuinely upset or just hormonal. I just have such a hard time falling asleep lately when he isn't home (ha sounds so juve

  • The hormones are probably playing a big role in the way you are feeling. I tend to feel a little more emotional lately about things that wouldn't have bothered me when I wasn't pregnant.

    I understand working a lot. I barely see my husband either, but is the above really necesarry??<

  • It probably IS the hormones. I tell you as someone who is TRULY alone in their pregnancy, even if your husband is barely around, at least he's there. you know he's going to be a dad and take responsibility for his child even if he's a little busy at the m

  • If you believe he's at a bar until 2am 'discussing paperwork' I have a bridge to sell you. I won't try to speculate what he's actually doing, but it's not work-related.
