Husband drinking during pregnancy

Hi everyone,

So I think I've turned into a hormonal mess. I'm nearly 36 weeks pregnant and I have to say I'm finding things with my husband very difficult. I know it's not a major deal but he drinks at home every Saturday night. We both work durinf the week and he works nights so the o ly time we have together is saturdays. He never comes to bed with me anymore. I know he loves me but I just feel so alone. Especially when he's just drinking cans in front of the telly while I'm up in bed looking up stuff for the baby and about giving birth. Tonight was very hard because we had to go to a wedding. I didn't know anyone there. The wedding was small due to covid so there were only 50 people there. He pretty much just left me with everyone while he went away drinking in a different room with all the lads. I know I shouldn't care and should just let him have his fun but I just feel so alone in this. I wish to god that he would just even check in on me to let me know he's thinking of me.

I'd like to think that if the shoe was on the other foot that I'd be more considerate of what the other person is going through.

Aw sorry you’re going thru this, have you tried to talk to him about how you’re feeling? That’s the first thing I would do, sometimes we make ourselves feel worse by bottling things up. I think you should have a heart or heart convo with him and who knows he may actually be none the wiser that you’re feeling this way?

Probably not a popular view, but I'd be glad it's just once a week. I think it's healthy to have space and downtime alone.

He sounds like a normal bloke to me.
And be glad he only drinks at home one night a week. Has he started drinking in the morning before he goes to bed yet ?
