Do any mums feel this way?

Question

im a mum to an 11 month old son, i see alot of people, but my husband works full time mon-fri and saturday nights.

i love my husband soooo much an i hate bein without him, does anyone else feel so lonely sometimes, even though they have family around them? it feels weird, we are planning to try for another baby next month but am worried ill miss my husband too much!

Answer 1

if your feeling low please dont try for another baby yet because you chances of getting post natel depression will be alot higher!! please concider this. you need to work this out. i felt this way after having my son and it aws because i kinda felt tyed down and not able to run to the spa with my husband or do whatever i wanted with him. i think this may be how you feel

Answer 2

I work and my husband stays home, but he complains that I don't spend enough time with him either.  I think it is less assigned to gender than it is to who is the primary (or in our cases - sole) wage earner.  Especially where there is a sole wage earner, we frequently have to work overtime to make ends meet (I work 6, sometimes 7 days per week myself).  I miss my husband, too, but know I am doing what needs to be done.  If you feel you are not ready for another child just yet, tell him how you feel.  You need to be happy with your life as well, and sometimes what appear to be the best laid plans don't seem so great anymore once you are executing them.  There is nothing wrong with changing plans now so you have some time without the stress of an infant to enjoy your husband's company.
