My wife and I are pregnant with our secound child (girl). Our pregnancy was a wonderful experience which we both enjoyed. This pregnancy seems to be different. She is going to be a stay at home Mom this time. But she always seems to be mad at me for one thing or another. Most of the time she is calling me self-centered and comparing me to the men in her life that she has disliked, and that I have not cut her any slack during this pregnancy this time or am not attracted to her. I have always been a giving person (to the point she has called me the "best husband" or her friends have told their husbnads to be more like me) and tried to be attentive to her needs but if I miss one day or am very tired from work then I am discpicable in her description. We have usually had a great marriage (with its problems occasionally) but this time it seems that she is very critical of anything I say or do. I have apologized numerous times to try and help her feel better but get chewed out instead. Any advice...anyone?

If you asked my husband he say Its spousal abuse. Basically patience, If you feel a fight coming on walk away from it. The last thing you want to do Is stress her out even more, stress Is hard to deal with. You know I hear a lot of guys cry and moan about pregnancies, which I understand. But for once look at It as If you were her, she's pregnant 24/7! You cant turn It off like a light switch, and the hormones tear us apart to. Imagine being cotton candy one moment and the next crying In the bathroom. Not exactly the easiest thing, so the best idea Is just walk away. Give her a few moments then come out when your both calm and level headed. Poking the subject wont help, and most of all It could destroy a good marriage. Believe me she's not trying to hurt you, or make you feel bad, when were mad we tend to make others angry. UNCONTROLLABLE! My husband normally walks away or phones a friend when we start fighting :), works well If you ask me.
