Unsupported

Hello I am newly pregnant and I love my husband but I feel unsupported. I don’t know what to do or say because my emotions are kicking way in. He’ll make comments like “I’m trapped” or “why are you in a mood” or when I was suggesting to get non alcoholic wine for the holidays to keep it hidden from my family he looked at me like I was stupid or crazy and told me no. I’m not sure if he’s even fully aware of what’s going on. Am I just having strong emotions or should I do something. I haven’t told family yet so I don’t really have anyone to talk to. He said he’s excited but at this moment I don’t believe him at all.

    Hey hun.. I completely understand you rn, I felt the exact same with mine on my first.. I sat him down and I told him damn well how I felt and how it was making me feel as a person and thjngs did change.. but your emotions really do run higher during pregnancy, and I know sometimes men have emotions too but they hide them well! Maybe have a little chat with him if you haven’t tried already? And if you don’t mind me asking, is there a reason why you haven’t told your family yet x
  • Hey I haven’t told them yet because I’m only 6 weeks. He wants to keep it between us till I’m 12-14 weeks
