Your husband needs to get comfy with his hand. H and I have had sex maybe twice in 6 months due to general pregnancy discomfort.
Agreed. H and I haven't had sex since my bfp this time and last time we didn't until 3rd tri - and that was because I was 40 weeks and hoping to kickstart labour. Pregnancy hormones kill my sex drive.
He acts like it's indicative of the state of our marriage...I'm like, listen, I have progesterone in my hoo-ha, currently am fighting a cold and can't breathe through my nose, am exhausted, feel disgusting and fat...and then on top of it, last time we did anything I got a little excited too and ended up spotting...soooo...he can handle a few more weeks of bare attention. Plus, pushing the point does nothing for his chances. He can be a little selfish (see: dinner plans deserted bc he needed to see if he left something inconsequential at home or lost it) and he needs to learn to get over himself. (Turns out I have a little more frustration than what a cinnamon roll can solve, ha!)

Can I send my toddler? I've had enough of his crap already
Haha sure! So long as he doesn't have a GI bug. DH is in isolation due to exposure and I am not dealing with a GI bug during c-section week! DH can send your DS home on Monday ;-)
Oof, I don't blame you!
No bugs, just a toddler who isn't handling being 2 well! 😂

This is the same for me. And my H always comments about how he's read that pregnant women usually like sex more often, so he is all taking it personally and it's really not like that and ugh so frustrating. They get so grumpy without sex. Just take care of your own business for now please....I am falling apart right now and just can't.
The last time we had sex was in November. It ruined my hips for weeks.
Ahh, I make our detergent. There's nothing harsh in it so I plan on just keeping that up.
You'll want a store purchase-able one for cloth diapers.
We use tide liquid though a lot of people say to avoid liquid. Our water is way too hard for powdered detergent
It looks like the internet has some recipes for homemade detergent for cloth diapers, I'll explore those. We avoid conventional detergents, but if the homemade stuff doesn't work well then I'll see if Method has something doable.

As long as there is no stink after washing (stinky means they're not clean) and they don't cause a rash, id think it would be okay. You'll want to watch for build up of ammonia or minerals

Yeah, this was good to know. I didn't realize about the buildups from the castile soap.
I agreed to get BBQ for dinner which makes my husband so happy and fills him with love that he tells me on our way home that he loves me very much and that he picked the right woman to impregnate. 😂
