To Wives and Mothers out there who get angry?
Has anyone out there gone through this:
I have been with my husband for six years and we have a wonderful little girl that is one and a half. I went through post-partum and thought it was over.
It just seems I am always so angry with my husband. He doesn't drink, smoke do drugs or even spend time with friends. He provides for everything in our house.He owns his own business and works from home.
He is a perfectionist when it comes to helping out in the house. What I might do in 15 minutes he will take 30-40 to ensure it is done just so. I take care of everything inside and outside of the home. He will help with laundry and dishses. We have a 12 year age difference. I just find myself aggitated when we are together.
Is it because I am with our child 24/7? We haven't done anything together since the baby came. I haven't had a period since I've been pregnant due to breastfeeding, maybe this effects how I feel. Also the little one sleeps with us. Anyone help?

You absolutely are suffering from a loss of your own identity. You are now just mom and housewife. Hubby works from home so you get a full 24-7 dose of both him and the baby. We ALL need some time to ourselves away from the baby and the spouse. You get too much of your husband so its only natural that he aggitates you.
I have been married for eight years/together twelve. He makes the hair on the back of my neck stand on end when I've been with him for more than four hours continuously. I love him with all my heart but we do things differently....just like you and yours. We have differing opinions about how and wehn the housework should be done, the bills paid, etc. And you get to have a full dose of your hubby's work too. Join a club or volunteer one or two days a week to get out of the house. Take a job if a little extra cash is in order or just to have some spending money of your own. And encourage your hubby to see his friends etc. then you will each have something else to talk about when you get back.
And for goodness sake, get the baby out of your bed. How can you and hubby reconnect if the three of you spend all day and all night together?
there's an old saying "if mamma ain't happy ain' t nobody happy" and it means that you will start to resent your hubby and your baby and your life if you don't take charge of it now.
Make it good again, mamma....

Yes, you need to understand her feelings. HER HUSBAND was screwing around with your mother for 30 years. She has every right to not attend the funeral of the whore that hooked up with a married man. Your mother did a wonderful thing, but to this woman it's just a slap in the face, rubbing it in that she was screwing a man that belong to someone else. The love you have for your mother blinds you to the fact that she was behaving disgracefully and it's unreasonable of you to expect her lover's LEGAL WIFE to mourn the passing of the mistress, regardless of whether the mistress left money to the kids.

it is time for the little one to sleep in her own room. big deal if it takes him 2x as long to do something around the house he's doing something. you need to amke tie for yourselves. plan a date night get a friend or famliy member to wath the little one. and go out for a couple hours. do it at least once a month. you need to reconnect with him, tell him that too. you will want to take some time for yourself to. tell your husband that, i'm saying an hour here or there even. you don't even have to do anything but sit and stare at a wall. Tell dad she's yours for 1 hour this evening I'm going to take a walk or what ever.

#1 put the baby in his/her own bed....tonight.
#2 being with someone 24/7....especially a perfectionist, would drive anybody crazy. Can your hubby get an office outside of the home?
#3Get out of the house and do something for yourself once in a while.

It sounds like you need a break. Take some time out for yourself.
Do something that is ONLY for you. If your husband is not available to watch your daughter so you can have time for yourself get a relative or babysitter to watch her.

Try doing things with just your husband and move the baby out of the bed. Do adult things together. Understand that life does not stop when you have a baby.
