Thank you guys. I do know that my hormones are getting the best of me. Trying to stay on top of these damn things is hard work!
Jenny, Yep I already had strangers say Wow you look great for having a 10 day old baby. Etc. H will not say anything complimentary to me, though, and I don't know why it is eating me so bad. Probably for the reasons listed above in JoJo's post. He did ask last night if I had jaundice cause my skin and face were looking "pretty", lol. What a charmer.
I do realize that H is stressed. He hates it when things go to crap around here and they certainly have done just that, this week. He feels helpless to help me so he basically ignores me and dives into "fix it man" who is going to get things ship shape, since there's nothing else he can do. There are, of course, other things he can do but THOSE things make HIM feel stressed and frustrated so he avoids them.
Btw, JJ, I wasn't talking about asking for sex necessarily. Just asking for ANYTHING that you need in the relationship. Specifically, I was thinking of asking him to be a little more sensitive and aware of my emotions these days and my needs as not only the mother of his kids, but as his wife. I am slowly making the transition from pregnant lady to mom of three. I need him to remember that even though I look different (and have for a while) that I am the same person inside. I still needed his physical touch while pg, and I still need it while recovering, although in a different form. Why this man continues to misunderstand what I need from him is beyond me.
Ok, enough complaining. Off to give kids a bath and clean this house o' mine.
