Feelings towards husband in pregnancy… are they normal?

[Beetawix]

I’m only very early but small things poor DH does are winding me up. I would rather spend most of my time with my DM atm. Is that terrible? I don’t know why it’s happening, or if it’s hormone related. :(

When I had my sons I couldn't stand my husband. It's like I couldn't stand to be near him.
When I had my daughters I was stuck to him like glue.

I’m 16 weeks now, for the first 13 weeks I couldn’t stand to be anywhere near him even though he was being so good with trying to look after me and doing all the housework etc. I was being such a cow to him, I didn’t want to be touched and just wanted to be on my own, I think it’s the hormones as I don’t feel like that now x

Sounds like hormones to me! From what I remember they go through a massive change in early pregnancy before levelling out in the second trimester - not your fault at all op!

If you feel up for it, try and talk this through with dh, especially if you can recognise that they're not rational, and explain what's going on. Giving a voice to it might help you call these thoughts out in the moment and make them easier to deal with. Also take some time for self-care and plan some alone time for yourself!
