Having hubby home for two weeks after the birth of my
daughter has left me wondering, is it better to receive emotional support or
physical support. Or does it need to be a combination of both?
Although I have felt totally thankful that hubby has taken
on the chores of the house there have definitely been times when I have felt
like I would much rather a cuddle and being told I’m doing a good job. Clean
plates are great but is it at the expense of my emotional health?
Maybe I’m looking for the wrong type of support from the
wrong person? Should I be relying on
hubby to provide it all or should I be spreading the neediness around?
In this time of fluctuating hormones and getting used to new
routines it’s almost impossible to make a rational decision and stick to it so it’s
almost impossible to know what I need at any given time from any given person.
So for now I will enjoy having clean plates and clothes and
hope that the cuddles will come when needed and thank my lucky stars that both
hubby and I are happy with just two kids so I never have to go through this
again!
