My Boyfriend && I  Spend The Whole Morning Together Until Right Now We Argued & He Left Like Nothing I Don't Know If I Did Right Or Wrong By Letting Him Leave But He Knows My Mood Swings && He Told Me He Was Ganna Stick By My Side No Matter How Moody I Got & I Can't Seem To Control My Mood He Just Wants To Touch Me The Whole Time && I Get Annoyed Especially Because no One In My Family Knows I'm Pregnant Just Me & Him. He Wants Me To Stick Next To Him The Whole Time & I Can't I Need Some Space. He Gets Mad Because He Says Ever Since I Got Pregnant I Don't Let Him Touch Me Anymoree ! But I Don't Like It When He Touches Me Anymore Unless It's My Belly I Understand.

My doctor gave me some wise advice when pregnant.  She said "don't make everything about you and remember you have a partner."  While we have hormones and all, pregnancy is not supposed to rule our life to the point that it causes friction in our relationships.  She told me to just do what I needed to do if my libido went low as it does for some women as part of a committed relationship is pleasing your partner.  I didn't have that problem as my libido is always very high when pregnant and my poor husband hid from me because he wasn't used to the sex crazed woman I had turned into . . .  

I think we do have to keep the needs of our partners in mind.   And hormones can not be an excuse for mistreating someone.  I really sincerely hear that you are trying to control them.  And it can be challenging.  I'm so glad you aren't giving into "it's just hormones so it is okay for me to be like this because I can't help it".  That mentality does cause a great deal of resentment with our partners.  

If you do, however, feel like your hormones are really out of control, you need to tell your doctor.  What they will wonder about is after the baby is born, how your hormones will react.  Post partum is a real concern for women and having so many hormones that you can't be touched or control anger/annoyance when pregnant is a sign that you might have trouble when the baby arrives and they will want to help you with that.  They ask questions to determine if this is going on at your 6 week post partum check up but if you have let them know that you are struggling with it now, they'll take better care of you.  Okay?  Reach out for help with your doctor if you need it.

Anyway, when I screw up with my husband or we have a conflict, I try to talk to him about it. so, try that.  Tell him that you love that he wants to touch you and you aren't sure why it is bothering you right now if it is your skin, hormones or what and that you'll ask your doctor (do ask),.  But you'll try harder if he is more sensitive to how you are feeling.  

good luck

Oh yeah that's definitely crossing a line when you're with people! I don't always like being touched even when we're alone. I agree there needs to be compromise, but you did the right thing letting him know it isn't okay in front of your family.

No! You dont have to let him touch you just because. I get over-stimulated when touched too much and my partner understands this. This is a relationship afterall, you give AND take. Find out what would be a good compromise. If you like massages and it is in an appropriate time and setting start there. Communication is key and you both have to find the right medium for you both.

You may be pregnant but that is no excuse to not let him touch you.  A relationship is a team. You need to give, as he does too.  Put aside that feeling and let him touch you. It's an assurance for him. Maybe try some methods for relaxing to control your moods.  Mood swings are a side effect,  they ARE something you can control.
