help! tired of being moody and mad

My girlfriend became extremely moody to the point that we broke up. The pregnancy was planned and we were/ are very happy about it. It seems as though she had what they call a "hormonal storm". I never thought something like that could happen, but she seems to have come out of it part way anyhow. We are back in the same bed together and things are almost like it never happened. I have tried to be very understanding and love her so much and just want to help her through it.

This "hormonal storm" started to clear up at around the four month mark. I try to make her as comfortable as possible, by giving her a lower back rub for about 45 minutes at a clip every other night without any sexual overtures. On the other nights I give her foot massages for no less than 45 minutes, I also include the lower legs and backs of the knees. She really seems to enjoy both!

I guess I will hang tough and see where it all goes, I certainly do not want to lose her and want to do everything to make her comfortable.

Husband

Kimberly - I don't know that I have any helpful advice about your husband, but you're right - he's being a jerk. First of all, have you taken a home pregnancy test yet? Is this your first pregnancy? I just cleared the 9th week of my first pregnancy - a planned one - and my husband and I both had reactions that surprised us (and that weren't always positive). After 5 weeks of knowing that we are pregnant I just now feel like we are _starting_ to accept this huge shift in our lives. It's a lot to digest. But it's unfortunate that your husband is taking out his stress about it on you. How would he react if you told him to get his own lazy behind out there and walk the dog...and that he'd better start pulling his weight if he wants to be a dad? Turn the tables on him. Who wouldn't respond well to such an incindiary attack? ;-) Like I said, I don't have much in the way of good advice, but I'm rooting for ya; I hope at least a little encouragement will be helpful.

Dreams of a miscarriage

I have had two miscarriages since 1/06. I am 8 weeks pregnant and I have had dreams that I will miscarry. My two previous pregnancy's, I had dreams as well that I was going to miscarry and both times, I did.

Has anyone else experienced this and had a pregnancy last.

I don't know if it's a way of preparing me for what is to come or if it is all anxiety and me thinking it will happen.

Confused

My husband is being particularly insensitive and I'm not sure what to do. I am going on my seventh week and have had what I believe are regular symptoms of early pregnancy. I've had cramping, light headaches, and have been really exhausted.

My husband insists that I'm being lazy and that the whole house is suffering including the dog (which I used to walk everyday, but can't seem to find the energy to do it now). I'll admit that I haven't been much help. Everytime he does something he seems to want to make me feel guilty for "making" him do it. It's gotten really bad and it's making me feel even worse than I already do.

I'm confused because this pregnancy was planned. I guess I thought he was more ready for it than he is. Any advice? I don't see my doctor for a week and a half.
