What if you set yourself a check point in the future rather than trying to decide if he's even worth standing for right now? It sounds like you are on the fence and unsure about whether or not you want to work things out. What if instead you focused on you and waited to see how he's behaving in a few months?

One of my regrets was rushing things when I still saw hope from my H. He was coming around but when he went cold I overreacted and made things much worse. I wish now I had let him come back to me at his own pace. One night he'd be happy and cuddling the next he'd sleep in the couch. It was confusing but having him move out because I wanted things resolved quickly wasn't exactly a step in the right direction. So try to take a deep breath and build up your self esteem by GAL if your relationship is weighing you down.

Are you walking much? Walking and staying active has really helped my PMA. Also starting to do things for myself has been a great confidence booster that I can take care of me and this baby on my own if I have to. I've been fixing things around the house, mowing (maybe not the best idea at 32 weeks) etc. I've also lined up help so that I can have 0 expectations about how much help ill get from H when the time comes.

Focus on taking care of you, give your H lots of space, and enjoy these last few weeks of getting kicked in the ribs by adorable baby feet smile
