Great post, and something to be aware of. I’m pregnant with my first, and my DH and I have a great relationship now, but I still do have fears when it comes to once our baby is here. Thanks for the words of wisdom and caution!

This is sound advice. Your honesty is admirable and will likely help many couples who are beginning the journey of pregnancy. Thanks for sharing your hearts so openly.

I appreciate both of you for your honesty. It’s refreshing in a time in which we all try to “hide” our secrets. Even though my baby is close to a year old, I definitely seem to blame alot on the baby. You have really encouraged me to go to the Lord with this and apologize to my hubby. Thank you.

I love this post. We will have been married 7 years this August, but my husband and I know just how stressful pregnancy can be. When we were pregnant with my daughter I was high risk due to a previous loss at 19.5 weeks and a surgery while pregnant. I was on bed rest for 5 months, plagued with hyperemesis (severe vomiting for all of your pregnancy which can cause you to lose significant weight), AND LIVING WITH HIS PARENTS. My husband had to do every thing for me and he had just started a new job working overnights. Between vomiting 2-3 times a day, not being able to go anywhere and the tension between me and his mom, I am SHOCKED that we made it. Strangely enough, we grew closer- maybe because I made sure to include him in EVERY aspect and maybe because we had gone through a loss together. Whatever the reason I know that so many couples don’t experience the closeness that we did. I am so glad that you both are addressing this issue. More of us married couples need to because so many people don’t realize that making a marriage successful is work. Hard work on both ends.

Wow what a topic! My hubby and I are expecting our 1st child and we are only 2 months along. Yet, I have been extremely tired and I find myself telling him “not tonight” quite often. I feel so bad about telling him that, but I just haven’t been feeling well and I have been extremely tired. After reading this article, I have decided that i am going to do better and make time for him. I will initiate things with him earlier in the evening so that we are both satisified. I don’t want our little blessing to cause any hiccups in our marriage. Thanks so much for this much needed topic!
