Hi Anita

Thank you for your support as always Anita! I learned some more about my husband’s perspective today. He tends to be a bit fatalistic when things are in a rough patch. Whereas I tend to be more optimistic that we will get through things and work it out and understand that people have a tendency to argue when things are stressful.

With the baby I did just take it for granted that he would be there when I had everything figured out with the baby and was ready to work on the relationship.

I feel angry that things have gotten like this. It’s something that I’m trying to work on at the moment. I have an unrealistic view of pregnancy and looking after a new baby. I think that this has something to do with it. I didn’t expect looking after a newborn to be so hard. I didn’t expect to have difficulties with my husband either. I know that is naive, but I didn’t. I didn’t really know much about having a baby when I was pregnant or when he was born. Realistically, though 90% of couples argue after having a baby. It was my expectations that were unrealistic.

It is a shame that the dentist that you liked wasn’t available. It is something special when you have a really nice one. I hope that the next one you have is nice too.

I’m sorry to hear that the numbing went wrong. That is really awful!

Thankfully, we have had a good couple of days with no arguing. We have talked a little about some difficult stuff, but not too much, softly and gently with each other.

Do you like numerology? Do the numbers have a meaning for you?

Love and best wishes, always! ❤️🙏
