Partner on night out

Anyone else really struggling with your partner being on nights out while pregnant? I’ve never had any issues with my partner going out before I was pregnant but now I feel so vulnerable and abandoned. I’m 32 weeks and I just don’t like being left alone and feel forgotten. I know it’s important for him to have fun but I also resent that he can continue life like normal while I’ve sacrificed everything and am suffering every day with pain and my emotions. Please tell me it’s not just me because I’m starting to feel like a psycho

I have felt like this, it’s a horrible feeling! I trust my husband 100%, but I feel so jealous sometimes as I’m not the kind of person that will just go out, especially sober, and events are so heavily focused on drinking that I just feel really left out sometimes. I have no advice but just know that you’re not the only person who feels like this. As long as you can have a healthy conversation with him about it so you can get it off of your chest then that’s the important thing x

Yup. And it was his stag do he went on, but I still hated him for it and gave him so much grief. I apologised when he got home. But I still didn’t want to look at his face. It’s the hormones and I also think jealousy cos females can’t do that through the 9 months. You are not a physco tho hun x

Yeah me too! He has stopped now but it was all jealousy from me that I wanted that with him as well 🥲

Yep! I feel like this too! It all came to a head last night and had to get it off my chest and now I feel so much better about it. It’s hard to see other peoples lives carry on as normal when ours has had to change so much x

Im so relieved to hear it’s not just me, I just feel like it’s really wrong for me to stop him going out but I’m just not okay with it anymore! Second trimester I didn’t care at all but I’m really struggling in the third and I don’t feel comfortable with it any more😣

100% normal. I’m only 17 weeks but he’s making so many plans for dinners and activities with his friends on a whim I feel forgotten about. I like activities and dinners too! Then he says oh we spend time together…yes sat at home on the sofa because he doesn’t want to do anything because he went out last night… I did speak to him and say it’s not that I care about him going out it’s that I want him to want to do things with me too. And of course I am jealous I can’t just spontaneously decide to go out for dinner at 8pm that night 😂

No I so understand this too!! I’m sick of our quality time being sat with him hungover. We work 6 days a week sometimes as well so it’s really frustrating!! The jealousy is so real though but that’s what always makes me feel guilty cos I shouldn’t stop him because I’m jealous. But the reality is I’ve had to flip my whole life upside down for 8 months now and he’s had to make no adjustments and I’m the one that probably needs the night out more!!
