I'm in the newly married category. My husband and I have been together for a little over 2 years. Pre-pregnancy we spent a lot of time together. First trimester was rough because I just didn't have the energy to do things with him. It got better in the second trimester. But I just can't do as much as I used to.
Sometimes I get the vibe from him that he'd like us to spend more time together. I'm trying to balance some me resting time, visiting friends and family while I still can get out and spending time with my husband.
It's hard when I don't have the energy to help with house projects like I used to. I think he gets lonely doing the work alone. Yet he feels he's got to get it all done before the baby arrives.
I have to say my pregnancy hormones/fatigue have made me a little less patient and a little less tolerant. So sometimes he annoys me too. Sometimes I've got so much I want to get done that it's hard not to get annoyed when plans have to be changed or I feel pulled in too many directions.
When I notice that I'm getting snippy or he's sounding like he needs together time, I take a deep breath and remember that we are going to be relying on each other more than ever (and spending less time together) when the baby comes.
