Not so happily married.

I've been with my husband 3 1/2 years and been married for nearly 2 years. We have a beautiful 8 month daughter. I'm not the most affectionate person, and now we have a daughter I'm very busy looking after or being tired after a day of looking after her.
Since Edith has been born I don't have the patients for my husband, not that his annoying, but u don't get annoyed over silly things. Sometimes I feel like I can bear to even look at him and I feel like I wish he'd go away.
I'm so worried this feeling won't go away and my daughter will grow up with patents who hate each other.
I'd love to be in one of those relationships where you love each other so much, could never imagine being apart, that love to snuggle or hold hands. But the truth is, sometimes I don't even like my husband.
Please help!
Oh and by the way, my husbands a great man, amazing father. Nothing to fault. Just the way I feel :-c

It could be post-natal depression... I would advise to speak to your GP as soon as possible.

Don't forget your hormones are all over the place! Give it some time and may be worth mentioning to the HV when they visit.

What was it like pre-baby? I definitely would visit GP. I'm presuming it wasn't an arranged marriage and you did love him enough to marry him and to have the child with him

Just noticed you named dd, not sure how you do it but you can get MNHQ to edit your post to remove the name. Otherwise I agree it sounds a bit like post natal depression. I'd avoid making any big decisions until you've ruled that out.

It does sound like PND. You have fallen head over heels with your daughter and there's no room left for your husband. That feeling is so overwhelming, isn't it? Why don't you see your doctor and see what he/she thinks before you make a decision?
