Anyone Else Obsessed with DH

[ttcbabyj]

Since being pregnant I am absolutely obsessed with DH. I just feel like I love him sooooo much. I mean don't get me wrong, of course, I loved him before I got pregnant. We have been together for 14 years. But lately it feels like everything is just so new. I cuddle with him way more than I ever have in the past 14 years. In between DH leaving his old job and starting his new job he took a few weeks off to spend time with me since I am on winter break. I cried like a baby when he left. He left something and caught me and thought it was the cutest thing. I just want to be around him like 24 hours a day. He definitely doesn't seem to mind. But I just wanted to know if I'm alone.

Honestly, it was our first "sign" that I was pregnant! I literally couldn't get close enough to him while cuddling and was super clingy which is not typical. We joke that I "want to wear his skin" or that I am "slothing" him (because sloths just cling to things). I'm still pretty much like that.

@ketchup I felt that way when I was stimming for IVF. Everything he did irritated me. Once I asked him, "why are you blinking so loud." 😐

teachermomtobe I laughed out loud at the "wanting to wear his skin." It's like I can't get enough of him. He said he wants me to stay pregnant forever.

You're not alone. Being pregnant and the subsequent parenting that has followed has made me and DH that much stronger as a couple. Keep this feeling alive, dear. You'll need it and each other on all those late nights.

I am totally in the same boat as you. H is out of town on a business trip for two days and it has already been miserable (he left yesterday afternoon). I feel like now that the stress of just TTC is gone, I have so much more room to love and want to be by him all the time!

Ha, so far I mostly want him to wait on me hand and foot...but not touch me. At this point I think he's handy to have around, but I don't mind when he just leaves me alone (might have something to do with the fact that it's been months since I could do anything but, er, take care of his needs while I sit here becoming a non-sexual plant). The other night he went to bed ahead of me and slept on my side of the bed and I had murderous rage. I made tons of noise getting ready for bed...totally out of character for me. Usually I'm pretty easy going and would never mind sleeping on whichever side.

Wear his skin. Omg I just LOL'ed so hard.

AFM- yep. Whenever I am pregnant this happens. But, admittedly I am a big lover anyway. Also, sometimes, it's reversed. DH will tell me I smell good or will randomly come up and kiss on me. He says it must be my body putting out pheromones lol

Ah, pregnancy.

Sleeping on the wrong side of the bed is an offense punishable by death. Pregnant or not!

I'm more with @ketchup on this one. Normally I enjoy snuggling with DH and having him around me. When I'm pregnant I just want him to stay the F away. Don't talk to me, don't touch me, don't invade my side of the bed. Just no. Hopefully once this is done and I'm sleeping again I'll go back to enjoying his company. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate him, he's been amazing and has done so much. I just don't want him near me?! Sounds weird, I know.

I flip flop most days. I love to get all cuddly and then the next day I don't want him touching me at all.

He's been extra sweet though. It's cute. I mean, he's great at taking care of me but there's definitely been a step up.
