All you BTDT moms--did any of you feel all clingy and lovey-dovey toward your DH the last few weeks of any of your pregnancies?

Yesterday I must have burst into tears 5 times throughout the day, missing him so much and having such tender thoughts of him (and he was only gone from 9am to 6pm). [heartbeat] [heartbeat] I thought I was back to "normal" today, but just a few minutes ago I sent him a copy of a love song to express my feelings, and tears started streaming down my face.

Ah, the wonder of pregnancy hormones! :wink: :lol:

I have been there before, aren't hormones wonderful?! :lol:

hehehehe
Oooooooohhhh yes been there m'dear ;)
Then a couple of days later I don't want him around. Then the other end again LOL

Yep... DH loved me prego... [couplekissing] [heartbeat]

I am ususally all clingy and wanting Dh to be around all the time pretty much my whole pg. It was worse with DD, but I am getting more and more like that with this baby. I think the weirdest thing during pg for me was that I didn't want to drive anymore...who knows if it was because I wanted a reason for Dh to be there all the time, or I just didn't want to drive.....it's coming back with this pg too...not as strong, but it's there!!

I think it's sweet how you are feeling so tender towards your hubby. Maybe your mind is figuring out that soon it won't be just the two of you, and you are enjoying the last few days as just man and wife. A baby does change things, but so far for us, it's been sooooooo good!!!

I am actually the opposite!! not very nice and dh likes me better when i am NOT pg!!! lol my moods are not very nice. I wont say anymore!!! lol :lol:

EMJO! You are due 1 day before me!! Any sign of labor or anything happening. ??
Me not much.. .today though I am having contrax every few minutes, but I have had that before and they just end up leaving later. so I am not getting my hopes up ...yet!

Chandra--I just have a few light BHs here and there. My mw says the baby's not quite ready to come out, but the way s/he squirms around sometimes I wonder if s/he is trying to anyway! :lol:

My best friend is due Nov.19th. I just talked to her today and she said she has been a total wreck emotionally, for the last couple of weeks. The further along she gets the worse it gets. So I don't think you are alone. Other women deal with this too, so don't feel bad for it.

The last three months with Dainyah was an emotional roller coaster/nightmare for me. I was so clingy towards my husband. Then, the last two months, I just wanted him all the time. Kind of scared him, I might add (long story there). I felt like I needed to be coddled and babied myself. I was reading in one of the birthing books I got from the library, that the need to be coddled and babied as a pregnant woman is normal and is attributed to the wonderful hormones.

Five weeks post-partum, and I still want to be coddled. I'm not lovey dovey anymore, am totally exhausted from life, but, I want to be babied a little myself. I think it is different for each woman though. And I do have times where even the thought of being held or cuddled makes me want to lash out at him, but it isn't too often.

Now, I am getting a tad bit weepy. But, it is worse when I am very tired, which I am. It's been a long couple of days around here....I can't wait until he gets home from work tonight now. He doesn't get off until ten though...

But yeah, it is normal. Enjoy being lovey dovey now while you have the opportunity.

I felt like I needed to be coddled and babied myself.

:lol: After reading that, I thought, yeah, that's it, I feel like being babied and coddled, and then I told that to DH. You can't believe how much sweeter and more wonderful he's been since I did! [couplekissing]

I told my mw about the phenomenon yesterday, and she wrote down on my chart, "Experiencing spousal attachment." :lol:

Yes! Been there especially after pregnancy. :wink:
