Can't stand partner
I don't know if it'd just hormones or I've fallen out of love but I cannot stand my partner at all. I know it sounds horrible but his presence irritates me, I dread him coming back home I prefer when im on my own, everything he does annoys me like even the way he is with the baby even though he's not really doing anything wrong he's just loud and annoying. He constantly trying to touch me and kiss me and I don't want to. I don't feel like being intimate with him. Just feel stuck and miserable. I'm nearly 4 months PP and doesn't seem to be going away. I also have a history of depression and not sure if I'm suffering with PPD.
Anyone else feeling this way?..

The first 1-2 years after having a baby is so hard on your relationship and partner. Take it easy. You probably do have ppd or something similar as your partner isn’t technically doing anything wrong. See your GP and take some time for yourself mama x
I felt this way at the beginning. But as my hormones level out it's nearly gone. Peaked at around 10-14 weeks and now at 15/16 weeks I feel much much better!!!
This is really normal pp, hormones have ALOT to answer for. I felt this way for 8ish month's with my firstborn. But it does pass I started to deliberately look for the things I loved about him at around 6 months and slowly my hormones balanced out.

This is totally normal during postpartum! It will pass and things will get better. If you feel really depressed or feel like you need further support then see your GP please! Hang in there, you got this!
