I kinda-sorta got P.B. to talk about emotions and stuff last night. It all started when we had a disagreement over some insurance stuff while on the phone yesterday afternoon.
When he got home from work there was a very large elephant in the room. What started out as a discussion quickly turned into a heated debate, which resulted in some profanity and then me taking the baby out of the room and refusing to argue in front of him. Not our finest of moments, but it's been awhile so I guess we were overdue. Later on I put Branflake to bed and we resolved everything.
Not being in the mood for makeup sex I decided to talk about how "off" I've been feeling since giving birth. Which is totally true, by the way. Of course, being motivated by some potential nooky, P.B. was happy to talk to me about how I was feeling to help me feel better.
We're not one of those couples that only got married because we got pregnant. We were considering a Spring 2012 wedding and working our way though 1001 Questions to Ask Before You Get Married when we found out I was pregnant.
We didn't really have any time to figure ourselves out as a married couple before we had to figure ourselves out as parents. P.B. said that maybe we need to stop looking at it as a setback and instead think of it as being one step ahead of everyone else.
Maybe he's right.
