My husband has been on my nerves for the last couple weeks. I think it's a mix of both hormones and him just downright acting like an ass. I won't say he hasn't shown any enthusiasm but the majority of the comments I get about the baby are things related to finances...how expensive strollers and car seats are...how much we're spending on groceries (having horrible sickness with this one and can only stomach certain things, when I really want them), etc. He also picks at some of the things I've been doing, like the fact that I've been sleeping a bit more than usual. I fight, without medication, depression and PTSD symptoms everyday anyway, and he knows this. Throw these crazy pregnancy hormones and pregnancy sickness on top of that....well, you can imagine. And yes, dammit, it's exhausting and I'm tired. I nap. Get over it.
Generally, men just have absolutely no clue what this is like and how it affects us. I love my husband but...well, his preacher put it rather well in the sermon today: It takes work to love someone sometimes. There are some days that it comes easily, like a football player running, untouched and getting the touchdown. Other days, that player has to fight and stttrrreeetttccchhh himself to get across that line-- it takes more work. Some days, we just gotta work overtime to show that love...or at least, control the urge to smack them! lol
