Quoting Emmas_Mommy2012:Lol! I think I'm more sensitive to my DH's teasing since becoming pregnant. I swear he picks on me all the time about stupid stuff!! I just can't handle it like I use to though. At least it's almost over! I'm looking forward to going back to normal as well.
I know what you mean. I fly off the handle easily these days (I'm 6 1/2 months pregnant) so even when my husband even begins to pick like he used to I get so annoyed. I'm uncomfortable and miserable as it is, I don't need him nit picking on top of that. Surprisinlgy though, he seems to pick a lot less now. He used to annoy the snot out of me and we fought more before I was pregnant. This is our third child too and he knows how I was in my first two pregnancies. I would burst out crying during the funny parts of a movie. It was ridiculous. I think to, he is older now and he knows now that its just part of pregnancy. I went off on him one day. His jokes are pretty rude sometimes but he plays like this with everybody, he's not seriously being mean and I usually just joke back with some smart come back. We both unintentionally got more wrapped up in our own anger and got carried away but afterwards I went and apologized (even if he was the one who made the ill placed joke, I went a little overboard, turned into crazy woman) and he just hugged me and said. Its ok, I understand you'r pregnant and I probably shouldn't have said that and that he just wasn't able to think of that in the heat of the moment.(my reaction probably surprised him, I mean I had veins popping out of my neck I'm sure, it was overkill) The fact that he hugged me anyway, once I was calm and said he understood was all I needed. So just take it one day at a time and forgive each other. Its only temporary. Tell him if he could just reach out and hug you in those moments (even if it seems like the last thing he thinks he should do) that it might help. If that type of thing would help you that is. For me I just need to know that it was just a misunderstanding and we actually still love each other no matter what.
Lol I hate to tell you this chickadee but things never go back to normal once you decide to conceive.
He's probably just stressing about the huge life change that's coming, my husband did the same thing, I let him get a tattoo, lol.
I think a lot of it is hormones. But you still need to sit down and talk about your relationship and work on making it better now. Having the baby won't suddenly make it completely better. Although it will probably help.
How early did you start to swell
