hormones?

Ever since I got pregnant I started to look at my Hubby differently, I never intended on doing so...but it seem like everything bothers me, since he is the only one working I feel like a loser, and I get jealous of him because he work for a good company without a degree and I have a degree and my job closed down  :-( I've been really depressed and trying to focus on our baby, but this haunts me everyday, im glad he's working  even tho he has to work OT every day I feel like he should be making more money, so I wouldn't have to think about going to work afterthe baby is born...He wants me to be a stay home mom and I do too but it's hard not being able to contribute money wise not trusting him when he says he got everything under control.

Hubby and I both have degrees but when I got pregnant with my daughter I decided to go back to school online. I've stayed home with her for 3 years now and I will stay for another 3 years with this one.

I love staying home with my baby girl but sometimes I feel like I can't contribute and I feel like a child when I have to ask him to buy something... I have cards for all the accounts but I still feel like I have to ask. He insists I don't but I think its because I've always been very independent. It will pass just try to keep focusing on baby and doing things around the house

Its just hormones and mood swings and it will pass.. be thankful that your are able to stay home while pregnant... working full time and being pregnant is hard... I did it with my last pregnancy and I'm doing it this time around too... the difference is that this time I have to go back to work after 3 months :(  ... last time I was able to be a SAHM for 16 months... I already have my degree and hubby is months away from his... I just wish he made more money. ..

My husband works and I am a stay at home mum.  I love my role and wouldn't change it for the world.  I just. Think how lucky I am to be able to bring my children up.   I think it is just your hormones that are making you feel likes this.   I trust my husband 100% x
