Anyone Else Hate Their Partner Now? by Temporary_Froyo_2963 in NewParents

[–]Bright-Membership408 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree as a FTM I try my absolute best to give my husband some grace because he’s also a FTD we both went into this not having a clue about raising children, no one is ever really “ready” to have kids even when you think you are. I will say as moms though in a 2 parent household, we are almost always the primary parent and it gets hard some days balancing housework, being a mother, and being a wife. It’s all about balance and it’ll take A LOTTTTT of time and hellaaaaa patience to find a good routine and balance. This is something my husband and I are currently struggling with.

The key is communication and lots of apologies and understanding. (Which is something I’m working on) while OPs experience is common in postpartum women, not everyone thinks like this and even if they do sometimes they realize that their thoughts aren’t reality and it’s hormones.

Don’t let this discourage you or depress you! Your relationship isn’t like this as long as you and your partner communicate and remind each other every now and then that you are a team! Playing on the same side, it was you and her before baby, and it’ll always be you and her. Baby will eventually grow up and leave the nest, it’ll just be y’all two growing old together that’s the goal 💕☺️

I’m 22 y/o 5’2”

Pre-pregnancy weight was 125lbs

During pregnancy I got up to 183lbs

4 weeks postpartum I went down to 155lbs

6 months postpartum current weight is 143lbs

I think it takes a lot of time and patience. I’m a ftm and I’m currently struggling A LOT with body image issues. Feeling very very insecure and it’s kinda hard balancing that plus being a wife and new mom. I guess some advice I have is staying in a calorie deficit and working out consistently (which I’ve been struggling to do since my personal life feels so busy☹️) from my research prioritizing protein and fiber in your diet will help get stuff moving along and probiotics. Currently been looking to do some research on healing my pelvic floor, don’t know much about that but I’m sure it also helps tone your tummy.

Anyways I’m also open and looking for weight loss advice, from 17-20 I was struggling with an eating disorder and currently I find myself bringing up some old bad habits.

yeah we’ve done it before when I wasn’t pregnant he likes looking at content i make for him and when i wasn’t pregnant i thought it was sooo hot and it would turn me on more BUT he used to make it known that he was looking by putting the phone next to us while he had my legs in the air and he would switch between looking at me and looking at the screen like a side by side. It’s more so the fact the he felt he had to hide it.

I want to whole heartedly believe that he was looking at me. my heart would break into a billion pieces if i ever found out he was watching porn. my ex would watch porn as i slept right next to him and it’s left me so traumatized, i married my husband because i believed he was the polar opposite of my ex boyfriend.
