I Don’t Want Him

Anyone else felt completely disconnected from their partner after having their baby? I had my baby last week, and now I feel like I don’t like my bf at all and would rather it just be me and my baby. I felt completely fine towards him before giving birth; he’s not a bad partner, I’m just feeling like my baby is the only thing that matters to me and I don’t have room for him anymore. Again, he’s a good dad, and a good partner, but his personality traits that I’ve always disliked (such as arrogance and not being receptive to advice from others) have now been magnified— especially when it comes to him not heeding warnings about how to handle our baby, I’m feeling like I hate him. Please tell me I’m not alone in feeling this way.

I literally googled why do I hate my baby daddy.. it’s a very common feeling to have so don’t stress you’re certainly not alone!! My baby’s 5 months now and it’s definitely better but we have a very rocky relationship anyway so there’s another side of it. But I felt exact same xx

Thank you for validating my feelings. I hope things work out for the best for you, whichever way they go!

You are not alone! I feel like I grew and my partner became more childish... Immature man... I also have these dark thoughts that I hate him (coz he doesn't try to meet my needs) I'm feeling alone. I hope for you it is just the hormones . And you're gonna find the way. Communication is so important. I hope he's gonna listen to you. 💕 Congratulations mama with your baby 😘🍼

This is so normal don’t worry. It should get better ❤️

Hormones….

I felt like this when our first one was born but that's because 4 days prior I found out he was hiding stuff from me and I was having a hard time getting over it. Thi is have been off and on between us ever since and she's almost 2. We just had another one 4 weeks ago and most days I can't stand him. I would rather be a single mom than feel the way I feel most days

Yes I'm meant to be getting married in October yet I keep thinking am I doing right thing.

This happened to me too because as I grew as a person, he definitely stayed the same, and I ended up outgrowing him. I tried for two years after my son was born and I ended up leaving. However, I was with him for six years and I think that that’s why I gave up because nothing changed.

@Ashley THIS! I’m so sorry you feel that way and that things never resolved themselves. If you think it’s worth saving, maybe you guys should try therapy.

@Raimonda 🌻 Thank you for your kind words. I do hope the same for you as well. I’m so sorry you’re feeling alone. But I think I’m in the same place you’re in; I’ve outgrown him, I feel like I can do better (although I have no interest in dating anyone else any time soon), and he just doesn’t meet my needs. I don’t believe it’s just hormones. Our communication is very poor and I really don’t feel like trying any more. It doesn’t help that I broke up with him just before finding out I was pregnant last year… I only went back for the baby, and thought that we’d grow stronger. I thought we were getting there. Giving birth has brought me back to how I felt before.

Omg almost the same situation. Yesterday we talked about the expiration date.. Crazy. Wishing you to find strength and do what is right for you. And gonna make you more happy. We live ones ✨ 💕😘
