Did anyone not experience postpartum annoyance / rage / resentment towards their partner?
I have a scheduled C section this week. I went to get my nails done & all the staff were giving advice. One of them said "don't worry if you suddenly hate your husband and find everything he does immensely irritating - that's normal!" and everyone in the vicinity laughed and agreed and shared stories of snapping at their partners, yelling at them, or wanting to divorce them.
I know hormones will be all over the place and we will both be way more tired and overwhelmed than usual so I expect a bit of irritability potentially, but I really don't want to experience rage or hatred towards my husband. We have a really healthy positive relationship. He's very thoughtful, kind, and not the type who needs asking to do housework. I know he's looking forward to being a hands on dad and he expects to be doing the bulk of things while I recover. We never fight or snap at each other and neither of us are angry people in general. I just can't picture turning on him! But every woman in the nail salon apparently wanted to murder their husbands!
Does anyone have reassuring stories to share where you didn't experience that?
