Hey all,
We're on kiddo #3, and though we're educated adults who knew what could happen during unprotected sex, we were not planning on another so soon (have a ten month old) or in my case, maybe not at all. We just moved, my daughter isn't sleeping well yet, and I just wanted to relax.
We practice NFP (preference vs. beliefs), but admittedly I hadn't been great with tracking. Still, DH finished and did not confirm it was safe to do so inside, and here we are.
This is clearly not all his fault, but I am having a tough time not blaming him, or in the least wishing he'd not been selfish in that moment or had the ability to think of what a pregnancy now would mean. I had post partum anxiety with my last and I'm terrified of getting it again, on top of all the other pregnancy discomforts. I'm in a constant state of irritation with him.
Any advice? Hard truths? I know being upset isn't good for either of us!
