DH announced he’s bored

[Zazzleza]

DH announced this morning that he’s bored of mundane routine.
He’s bored of talking about nothing but children.
I’m a SAHM and expecting our second baby so that has hit me to the core. Firstly I don’t think we talk about children all the time although it is quite a large part of our current life so inevitable.
He also said he is worried about how we will afford another child. Very odd considering we planned no.2 for at least 6months and he has a good job- we won’t be hard up. He feels he doesn’t get a chance to spend any money on himself and all he does is work.
I can’t help but feel he is blaming me for him feeling like this.
We are normally so “together” but I feel he resents me in the past few days. If he is bored of our life, there is little I can do about it.

I feel this way a lot and so does my DH. Sometimes life is boring and mundane. We love our kids and each other but it is so easy to slip into routine. I always assumed it was a natural part of parenting. Maybe suggest a night away if you can find a sitter and spend some time together?

My mum used to say “only boring people got bored”.... just saying.

It's possible he was trying to get you to agree that it is boring, and maybe to have a discussion about how you both might be able to make things less boring. It's also possible that he was just whining about it, and doesn't expect you to do anything about it.
