Quote: He said it was like part of him was disgusted watching himself behave like such a jerk but he couldn't make himself behave any better
I gotta say, this might make me regard my partner with nausea.
It's all very well that there was no malice, just weakness, but it's like waking the ex-marine or the ex-cop up suddenly in the middle of the night and, as a reflex, they break your neck. They didn't mean it, but your neck's broken all the same.
MM, When I was moved from the labor room to the delivery room during S10's birth, somehow my H started arguing with one of the nurses. Seems she directed him to stand in a certain spot and he did not like this, so he starts in with her. There's all this commotion, and I finally scream at him, " H, you ( fill in curse), this is not about YOU!" I tuned him out for the rest of the delivery, and thanks to you, I can now think of "Hank" who would have held my hand and offered words of endearment and encouragement.
IHJ--- who hopes Honey's H behaves better than this
H and I have had a decent week. He has been horribly busy at work (fiscal year end, etc) and has not had one iota of mental energy to spend on his wife, let alone physical energy. Poor guy. We are hanging in there and getting last minute things done around the house. I think that one of my secondary love languages must be "working together on projects". In the past, I have avoided this like the plague cause I feared that H and I would tear each other's heads off (neither of us is afraid to speak our minds) but I reluctantly gave in when D2 was born and we painted her room together. It was fantastic! So we've been somewhat busy with those types of projects and that makes us feel close to each other, despite the emotional and physical distance that's been going on.
Last night my MIL offered to watch our kids overnight and I had hoped that something romantic might happen but no such luck. Oh well at this point my motives are as much for pleasure/intimacy as they are for labor-inducing, lol. I think I may have ruined whatever chances I had anyway by standing naked by the bed as he was walking in to get in bed. Normally I do not let him see me naked b/c it freaks him out too bad to be able to then ML to me. I just didn't feel like lunging into bed when I heard him coming and plus......I think there was a bit of sadism on my part going on. I wanted to see what he would do. This is my last pregnancy and the last time he will see me with a full belly. I don't like being pregnant but I am fascinated by it nonetheless. Anyway his reaction was "Oh my gosh! Stand to the side! You are HUGE!! Honey you have to have that baby soon.."
LOL
So needless to say this did not make him horny, but I suppose that's to be expected. I AM huge, after all! After hearing that, and knowing that sex was now not going to happen, I was glad that I drove to Baskin Robbins earlier in the evening. Shoot, if I'm going to hear about how huge I am I might as well enjoy the bigness. It was chocolate fudge and it was pretty darn heavenly, though nowhere near as delectable as sex with my H.
Maybe tonight, who knows, if I play my cards right and come to bed in the dark and JGI.............
I need GeneralMojo to map out a strategy for me, with stealthy moves and surprise attacks and reconnaisance (sp?) missions, etc.
I completely understand your frustration...but you're sooo close to the end of the pregnancy road...I'm hoping you have that little one today. My thoughts/prayers are with you I didn't realize how much I want to have another child until I went through that tubal pregnancy a few weeks ago. Now my LDH and I aren't exactly having sex right now (Dr's orders) but we are definitely talking about having another child and when. Which if nothing else gives me the promise of sex again sometime in the future LOL.
HP, Take a picture for posterity. A friend of mine got a professionally shot picture of her in a bikini when she was a few days from due. Yeah, it was kind of funny, but the way it was done was rather nice. Since this is your last, it is your last chance too. Besides, if H ever seems turned off by your bod in the future, you could always pull out the picture
--GGB who's W ate the whole pint of double chocolate ice cream she was craving before bed again last night giving her serious indigestion and killing any chance of intimacy. (same thing happened the night before, ya think there might be some cause and effect here??)
Maybe it's just me, but I think pregnant women -- even late-stage -- look sexy as hell! I couldn't even tell you what it is, but there's just this something ...
Choc., who then again thinks everything is sexy as hell...
Lassie, I wish you the best in conceiving your future babe. As much as I complain about being pg, it really is a special time for me. I look forward to the next SSM baby!
Choc, you know the funny thing is that I have always felt incredibly sexy while pregnant. Perhaps this is why it bothers me so bad that H finds it so repugnant. I feel...gosh I couldn't even explain it. Alive and full and womanly and SEXY! So there is always this disconnect between how I feel on the inside and how he views me. I want him to see the sexy side of me..to be able to show him what is inside right now, but he can't see it. He can't get past the fact that he is not only ML to his wife but also to his child. I can see how that would creep a guy out.
I have to say though that this is by far my most attractive pregnancy. I wish he could see that and appreciate it, since it is our last baby.
I do normally take pictures of my belly at the late stage of pregnancy, just to have a reminder of what I looked like and see the shape of my baby inside me. I haven't done it yet with this babe and would like to do it this weekend but I also don't want to gross him out like I did last night and ruin my chances AGAIN. ha ha! HD people never change..always thinkin...
