I'm going to start by saying I know how selfish I am going to sound... I am 10 weeks pregnant and it has been a difficult road to get this far, I'm very unwell most of the day and am in bed as soon as our 4 year old goes to sleep. This is leaving my partner feeling lonely.
When I try to explain how ill I am, he tells me he's hating this pregnancy, he doesn't feel like he has a partner or anyone to talk to and is getting down. Work has slowed down for him because of the economy and this is adding to his worries.
He is getting snappy and has less patience, with me I do not care but snapping (not violently) at our son and then giving him the cold shoulder even after he has said sorry is a step too far, when I call him on this he says I don't understand what he's going through and he's in a black hole.... I'm at the point where my main priority is our son and unborn child. I've told him to get help or speak to someone and he hasn't.
I don't know what to do. He is generally a really good dad and partner but I do find that when in going through a rough patch he does the same and then trump's it. I end up feeling guilty for being ill.
