Pregnancy hormones can be so hard for a couple to endure! Try to hang in there, she may be scared and even feeling resentful if it wasn't planned. Try talking to her about it and tell her how you're feeling. I had to realize that my hormones weren't only affecting me, but my fiance as well. He tries so hard to be patent with them still ( im 24 weeks now) but I am much better about realizing when I am having a mood swing and try not to be so hard on him. I used to cry and carry on in the middle of the night when I was in my first months, I would blame him for everything and I felt so bad when I realized what I was doing, but it took him confronting me about the hormone problem for me to see it. Pregnant women can't help but feel kind of self centered early on because after all, they hurt and are sick and as much as their significant other tries to sympathize, he is a man and can not truly know how she feels. In a way, being pregnant lets a girl let out all kinds of emotions because she has an excuse to do it now. If your relationship was good before, it will likely be good again, it will take patience. Just talk to her, maybe try romance even, and remind her of how much you love her and are looking forward to being a dad. Good luck! Remember, her hormones will calm down at some point so just be there for her, but give her space if she needs it.
