How would you feel if your husband told you that it feels like with each period you get, the symptoms seem to hit you harder.

To be fair my period mood swings were never noticeable at all really but it seems like since having babies I’m so much more irritable and moody. So like he’s not really wrong in what he said I just feel like it’s super inconsiderate. Does your husband understand period symptoms or is he clueless and mindless about it like mine lol

Show your support

Of course it gets worse after kids you are not eating sleeping doing anything as you like you are responsible for a kid, but do your best to focus on good things and ask him to be patience and help more when he can ❤️

I think it depends how he said it x

I always mention to my husband when I am on my period or even before when I start to transform in the worst of me, so he knows that it's not him. it's my hormones 😁 he understands and respects my feminity...or maybe he is scared, who knows...

Yeah my mood swings have been massively exaggerated since having a baby. Its actually taken us a while to see a pattern, but now that we have its pretty useful as he knows I need extra support on my period. I would only feel upset because I hate feeling controlled by these stupid hormones 😅

@Isla LITERALLY!! I go back and forth being in a crap mood and then feeling so guilty for acting out when i know it’s stupid hormones taking over but it’s just so sucky cause in the moment i have such a hard time not being upset

So tell him how to support you.

I don’t think it’s inconsiderate he’s just stating something he’s observed. We talk about everything here, we tell each other if one needs a hair dye, a haircut, or one needs a shower, or he needs to get rid of that shirt or only wear it at home 😂😵‍💫 it’s an observation that he’s noticed and he’s letting you know that he’s noticed. You can reply with yes after birth periods become unpredictable in mood swings because of increased hormones, to counteract w what he’s noticed, so he can be more understanding. Also, we have 4 stages of the month before our periods every period. Menstruation, Follicular phase (menstruation to ovulation) Ovulation, and Luteal phase. We have the most energy and most happiest Follicular phase and most moody in Luteal phase and the days leading up to menstruation and during.

If he's not wrong and he said it nicely, not mean, I wouldn't be bothered

lol I mean atleast he's smart enough to know it's when you're on your period. Mine just thinks I'm being an asshole

I don't see anything wrong with what he said personally. Mine has commented on mine as well afterwards. He was making the observation not really understanding why it was happening. I told him the reason was because of the hormone adjustments after having a baby. But when he asked it wasn't an offensive thing. Just something him and I myself noticed. I wouldn't take it to heart personally
