My husband has been distant for the past week, don’t know what I did but when I talk to him he’s…

maybe his depressed ? he needs to speak up sound like he doesnt want to be home ? Sit down with him and communicate with each other if he doesnt want to be with you he needs to speak up like a grown man.

@hazelmaplewood, ive tried talking he just says he’s stressed about money and if I try any harder he just gets mad.

My husband was very grumpy and distant around the 24 week mark. He actually googled it and realized it’s pretty common for dad-to-bes to be asses around then. Combination of stress, their hormones causing PMS-like symptoms, etc. Being aware helped my husband, but we still just had a shitty few weeks. It passes (in my experience and from what my friends say!).

Leaving the house is a bit much, but he might be doing that so he doesn’t bite your head off. You could always express that alone time is ok of course, but leaving you at home alone is hard for you right now.

Men can shut down when stressed , especially about money. Maybe you can create a special evening for him and cook and do something he likes as a surprise . Also , maybe you can help him figure out a solution to the financial dilemma or find a creative way to bring in a little extra income . Or If its a certain bill , maybe you can call for him and make an arrangement or other payment plan to get an extension . Sorry y’all are having a temporary tough time ... I’m sure it’ll get better .

I’d be pissed!!!! Leaving and not coming home till 10??? Fuck that. Stressed or not don’t bounce out and leave me at home alone with the kids and think you’re gonna just check out on being daddy and husband for whatever reason. Sorry girl I hope things get better
