Wondered if anyone had advice to offer.
Since I became pregnant my DH has been very loving but has basically stopped all intimacy. Nothing over a peck on the mouth and a hug.
I've brought this up several times indirectly by telling him I have had low self esteem since being pregnant, and he says all the right things and tells me I'm beautiful and he loves me.
I have almost given up trying to kiss him or initiate anything because I am always rejected in the kindest way possible. He says he's tired or he will kiss me then get up for something to break it off.
I confronted him about it directly this morning and he said since the pregnancy he's seen me in a different way, but assured me it's not a bad thing and that I'm sexy and beautiful etc. I felt better for telling him but it still seems unresolved.
I just want my husband back. Being intimate and snogs etc has always been such an important part of the relationship for me and my self esteem is literally hanging by a thread right now. I already feel weird as my body is changing so much.
Sorry this is basically a massive whinge. x
