Weird?
So my partner has acted weird the last 2 days. Yesterday he was meant to tell me if I needed to collect our son from school. He never got in touch so I rang him and it was weird. He didn't acknowledge he could have rung, explain why he didn't, act like he forgot or apologise. I said I would see him when he got home and he responded "you too". He immediately texted that he loved me and I told him the call was weird and he apologised and said there where people in the room. I rang at 2:15 and he finishes at 2. I knew he may have to stay back.
Today he got home a tad late and brought snacks which I had asked him too and then we had a few minutes of conversation and then he was in the bedroom whike I did house work. He then had a shower and went back to the bedroom. He has been home since just after 3 and is now asleep. He isn't talkative and I can tell something is off. He said work was busy and we had a bad night last night sleep wise but he has been chronically exhausted for a long time and functions on little sleep. He has a routine when he gets home that includes spending most of the night at his hobby desk with his tablet and gaming console. He has never acted like this. I mean yeah he has had a shower first or napped but 3.5 hours in the bedroom/shower and not his desk, nope.
I asked if he was ok and he said he eas just tired. I said he seems off and he didn't really acknowledge me.

If you think its weird then it's weird, but the explanation? No clue
Maybe he really is just tired... Lack of sleep can do weird things to you
Idk he sounds kind of exhausted. Maybe he's just tapped out
Sounds different for him. Could he be coming down with something so feeling more tired and needing more rest?

Lost our spark
I’ve been with my husband just over 4 years and we had our 1st wedding anniversary earlier this year. We also have a 1 year old. Our relationship over the last year has been really rocky. We’ve had horrendous arguments when we’ve never argued before, things have been said and there’s been many a time I’ve thought that we were done. While we have been slightly better over the last so many months, when we argue we argue. I feel like we have completely lost our spark. We don’t ever really cuddle as I don’t now like it as much as I used too, hardly say I love you and don’t ever really laugh and joke about when we used to be like best friends. The thing is I don’t see any of this changing especially as our 2nd is due next year. Obviously I love him but I don’t feel the way I did towards him in our early days. We have limited childcare so don’t ever get time just us and the 2 opportunities we did have the nursery sent our son home early so we had to cancel plans. I don’t know if we’ve just naturally drifted apart from each other or if this is just because of having children

Baby rice

36 weeks and freaking out.
My husband left me for another woman 10 years younger than me two months ago. We have three little ones together, ages 9, 6, and 2, and I’m currently pregnant with our fourth child.
When he first left, he wanted us to continue living in the marital home and coparent. His idea was to turn the nursery into his room, even though he said he would barely be home. I couldn’t imagine living under the same roof with someone who had chosen to leave our marriage, watching him get ready to go out was killing me, so I decided to get my own place and start over.
For a while, I thought I was doing okay. I was managing the kids, the house, and the reality of everything that had happened. But about three days ago, I started experiencing sharp pains and back pain, and suddenly, it all hit me. I’m about to have a newborn and three other little children to care for, and I’m going to be doing it all on my own.
Since then, my husband has practically disappeared. He barely calls the kids and has only seen them twice. They ask me all the time where their dad is, and I find myself making excuses to protect their little hearts. I tell them he’s working or try to give them an answer that won’t hurt them, even though I’m struggling to understand his absence myself.
I’m overstimulated, exhausted, and already sleep-deprived because my two-year-old is going through a sleep regression. I’m trying to hold everything together, but honestly, I’m terrified of what life will look like when the baby gets here. The thought of waking up every three hours to feed a newborn while taking care of three other children, without a consistent partner to lean on, feels overwhelming.
I think what hurts the most is that after almost a decade together, I never imagined he could just disappear like this. I never thought I would be preparing to welcome our baby into the world while simultaneously trying to explain to our children why their father is barely around.
I didn’t just lose my husband. I lost the future I thought we were building together, the family dynamic I believed our children would grow up with, and the person I thought I could count on when life got hard.
I’m trying to be strong for my babies because they still need me, regardless of how broken or overwhelmed I feel inside. But the truth is, I’m scared. I’m tired. And some days, I don’t know how I’m going to do it all.
After almost ten years with someone, you never imagine having to face something like this. I guess you really never know someone as well as you think you do. 💔

Having another baby
How do you know when it’s the right time for another one. Rn I’m a sahm to a 2 year old. Rn we are looking to move to my in laws house because they’re getting older and they need help financially. I started looking for a remote job to help more too. I’m not sending my son to a day care until he’s 4 or understands more.(daycares are Brutal rn). So anyways we are having baby fever but I just will feel guilty for not giving my son everything because our focus will be in everyone else. Or should I wait 2 more years until he’s in school??
