pregnant and lonely
i never get to see my husband.. i try to do things all day to stay occupied and happy.. its depressing being stuck at home all day.. and my husband works all day.. on the weekends.. hes too tired to do much.. and its frustrating.. i get really upset.. and he gets upset with me because he just wants to rest, and he does need to rest.. it makes me feel really alone.. we love eachother more than anything.. maybe i love him too much.. i just want him all to myself all the time.. i feel like i never see him.. and being pregnant i want him around more than ever
im looking for random things to keep me busy and happy but things that i can do that are safe for the pregnancy.. i want to try new things
any help will be greatly appreciated =)
thanks!

Congrats on being pregnant. I am sorry to hear that you are getting bored throughout the day. My wife is 22 weeks along and i work all week too. I also work everyother weekend as a business owner. I always come home and give her attention. I see it that if shes carrying the baby then no matter how much i work it isnt enough. Why dont you guys go to the movies where there isnt much to get him tired?
Tell him to spare some time for you and your child , sure he works hard and needs to rest , he can rest after spending time with you.
well hes not able to take time off.. he just got promoted.. and he worked really hard to get there.. movies sounds like a good idea.. lol i just recently talked to him about it..
im just not use to the change.. i always want to be around him.. but sometimes i think i overwhelm him and wear him out.. cause the second he gets home.. im all over him and talking trying to figure out how his day went etc.. when he probably just wants quiet.. its hard for me to back off though.. i try so hard
Diesel > what has your wife done lately to keep occupied?? what does she do all day while your at work? lately ive just been on my butt.. lazy.. i clean.. and do homework.. but thats it.. boring
When i am at work she works three days a week from 8-3 at our business. Other than that she is washing old baby clothes or cleaning old bottles. We live in the sticks so there really arent any other “mom to be’s” to hang out with. We constantly communicate throughout the day via emails in such. There is one thing i have learned since marriage, my family always comes first. If i ever lost my job i would lose my house, cars, toys, etc but my family will always be there. My wife is also high risk (we have lost five to date) so she cannot do too much. Mostly watch old OC re-runs and thinking of baby names til i get home.
Compromise with each other. Get some schedule when you could share some time with him and with the family and give him some time also to rest by himself like watching tv or some sporty stuff with his friends. He does need that too. Pregnant women are needy of attention and more extra loving time. But then again, compromise.
ok im only 14 and i dont know if this will be safe for you but why dont you play video games or watch a movie that you maby a comedy because it’ll cheer you up or if you have any friend that live around you have them over every week to do things like… watching a certain dvd or cooking but it’ll give you something to look forward to and gives you the rest of the week to plan what you are going to, do hope this helps and congratulations!
oh i meant the video games that are unsafe when you are pregnant not the cooking or the dvds
video games would be new for me… theres billions of them in the house.. im sure they’re safe.. cooking is safe if you dont burn yourself lol.. and so is watching movies..
ill try some racing games that ive seen
thanks =)
Hey sunshine :) well you know what works for me shopping =] and if you dont have enough money window shopping is also a great time passer =] wish you well with the baby and the marriage :)
Games and a walk in the park would also do you good. Get some nice sun in the morning, or read a good book. Those would help you ease your mind. Good luck!
See if he still maintains his “i’m tired ” pose when you dress up in a slinky nightie and offer “no worries I’m with child lovemaking ” I love women who are pregnant , tho it was usually me that did it …..lol But its nice to cuddle the 2 you love
Congratulations. I think try to study something, drawing, having friends online and chatting with them, go out with ur friends, try to introduce ur neighbors, watching TV or films on DVDs. bcoz it tooks a lot of time and u will not bored of it. If u like any of them of course. About ur husband u can pray for him bcoz he is trying to do the best for the family. I think he is a good man
yeah congratulations.as ma2 said chat to friends online or meet up for coffee,tv dvd or just perparing things for when the baby arrives,make the most of it being bored that is,once the baby arrives you wont have time to be bored.good luck.
I feel the same i am so bored all i do is sit around at home and cry until the kids come home i dont know what kind of mother i will be to a new baby i cant take it anymore
