Don't forget your husband is there. yes it is all about you, yes, you have a person in your womb who will exit in the most spectacular of fashions, but this is a change for him too! make sure when the family and doulas are fawning over you, that someone out there is taking care of him! maybe it can be you, but if you had a hard pregnancy, hard labor/delivery, csection, multiples etc, maybe physically you can't do it all. hire your brother to take care of him 😝

We often found ourselves arguing over nonsense stuff. So we got it out of our system, took a break apart & then apologized & came back together. Sometimes there were tears & sometimes we vented to our besties but just know that it'll pass.

cry alot & let it all out lol

Prayer. We worked hard on our relationship with Jesus. I had to fix mine as a whole. It took until just the other day to have my spirit fixed so that I can be a better wife.

All of these replies are nice and all but in the real world that is not how it will go. You will fight and argue. Been there done that. Just know that it will get better. It may take some time (and some broken dishes- if you are like me) but being assholes to each other will happen, believe me. Let's not sugar coat this ladies, you will fight, you will make up. Remember, tomorrow is a new day.

Sometimes talking to him is good. Apologize beforehand, and let him know that you might burst at any moment for no reason sometimes, let him know that it's your hormones,. so that way when you do go off, he can let you off the hook, because he'll know it's your hormones.

My husband and I have learned that the best thing the do for us right now is set aside time to just communicate with each other. To just sit and listen to how the other is feeling every once in a while. When we hit a rough spot a few weeks ago, we would do this every day. Now we do it maybe once a week because we're understanding each other so much better. We can talk about our fears with the new baby, our daily stresses, what we feel we need from the other, everything!

I often had to pump my own brakes when I was pregnant and ask myself a few questions: (1) Would I argue about this if I wasn't pregnant? (2) Will arguing about this actually fix anything? (3) Can I avoid a stupid argument by taking a nap? (4) How can I have a conversation about what's bothering me instead of having an argument?

Apologize often. I'm 30 weeks and I have to tell you, I start fights over some petty shit. I've come to learn that I sometimes really can't tell if I'm being hormonal, until it's too late. I've hurt hubby's feelings more being pregnant than any other time in our relationship. What I do is once I realize I'm being a brat (or once he finally tells me I'm being a brat or unfair) I just stop and say I'm sorry, I'm being ridiculous. and then we, you guessed it! talk! Communication is absolutely key, without it he won't understand what's going on and just assume he did something wrong. Another thing too that us women need to stop and realize is, that sometimes our men are clueless! it's not their fault they just don't know and probably never will know the pain and suffering we're going through. You just need to gently remind them sometimes or even have a good cry with them. Sometimes, those dirty socks on the floor NEXT to the hamper, just aren't worth a fight because for me after a fight, we are both hurting and I feel so guilty. So try to take a deep breath, pick up the socks and go take a relaxing bath or something. You'll find once your relaxed these things won't matter as much and be much happier. Just enjoy your time together as much as you can❤

@vereesah, that is so sweet! You've got a good guy :)

Don't make any big decisions while pregnant. you may regret them.

relax take a moment to think if what you're about to argue about is worth the stress, are you guys going to make up after anyways? After you argue are you going to regret the things you said? always think before you do

Sometimes they know EXACTLY what you're going through and they just don't care or they don't respect you. It's best to just walk away

be patient he has no clue how you're feeling only what you tell him is wrong so they may seem insensitive but they really hate seeing us in pain and have absolutely nothing they can do about it

not always abt hormones! sometimes the partner doesn't respect u and put the blame on ur hormones!! no babe it bc of u
