Re: Where am I wrong???
I think you really are overwhelmed at the moment with a little baby and the fact that your mom is not there for support anymore. There are many husbands like yours who are verbally inadequate and dont know how to be emotionally supportive. But that does not mean that they are bad human beings. Just give your husband some time. Sometimes it takes the couple extra time to understand each others needs. As far as him being apathetic towards you, I would say most doctors are like that. After witnessing death and seriously ill patients on regular basis, doctors are emotionally tougher than the normal lay person. They dont find pregnancy and labor such a big deal.
I think, things are not as bad as you think, just look at the positve things you have said so far. You mention that you have a 4 month old baby. Can I suggest that you go to your doctor and check if you might be suffering from baby blues or post natal depression. It can last for up to a year sometimes.The symptoms can include Irritability
Sadness, Hopelessness, A feeling of being overwhelmed
Inability to be comforted
Exhaustion, Emptiness
Social withdrawal
Low or no energy
Becoming easily frustrated
Feeling inadequate in taking care of the baby
Spells of anger towards others
Increased anxiety or panic attacks
As you can see, having a baby definitely takes its toll on the woman, so its worth checking if you have these symptoms frequently.
Try to stay calm, enjoy your baby and please try to remain positive.
