Unhappy relationship

[segc94]

I just feel I need a bit of a rant and advice.

I've been with my boyfriend for 6 and a half years. We have just had our first child together (3 weeks old).

Since about half way through the pregnancy I started having feelings of us drifting apart. Little things he did would seriously annoy me such as him being so forgetful, his constant need to always be on his Xbox, his lack of motivation to do anything.

I thought these feelings would pass and put them down as pregnancy hormones but I'm still feeling it now. I just feel like our passion has gone, he doesn't make me feel mega happy anymore. Some days are alright.. but a lot are just bleurgh and our conversation is so dull at times.

I really don't want to breakup with him, I still love him and obviously we have our beautiful daughter. I just don't know what to do to get our passion back

Honestly it is pregnancy hormones. Your baby is 3 weeks old, your hormones can take up to 18 months to settle back down to normal.
A lot of women feel distance and changes during pregnancy as you alone are pregnant.
Calm down, take stock of all the good things you have and you'll be fine xx

Agree with PP. I have terrible memory normally and DW noticed it got even worse when our DS arrived.

Personally I haven't touched a games console since DS was born (10 months ago), looking after DW and DS was more important. I would find a way for him to reign this in, especially as your DC is only 3 weeks old!!!

It's NOT fucking pregnancy hormones. You grew up and he won't. When you get pregnant, life gets real really fast. All the stupid stuff never bothered you before because it didn't really matter. Now you're seeing him for the lazy bastard he really is. That's what's happening.
