I have just hit my ninth month of my fourth, and final, pregnancy. My husband said that he will leave because, I put things off on him. I have been pregnant for almost all of our relationship. So understand I am exausted. I have gone threw hell and back with him. Now, that I was finally feeling like the end of our issues were coming to an end, he pops up with this one. I had promised my kids and myself that if he left again, (no this was not the first time) that this would be it, there would be no coming back. He knows that. But, I don't think it matters to him, because he doesn't want to come back. I lack some serious self esteem when it comes to my body. I hate the way I look when I am pregnant. My husband loves it and he does let me know every once in awhile. Most times I thought he said it just to get sex. Yet since I hate the way I look so much I can't enjoy sex at all. So I deny it. Sex seems more important to him than how I am feeling about myself. He says he wants me to look in the mirror and see myself like he sees me. But, I can't. I have one month to go threw until I start feeling more confident about the way I look. But, he can't wait that long. I don't want to lose him. Is there anything I can do or say that can help me save my marriage at the last minute?
