Mi corazon

I read this somewhere and it really resonated w me, particularly those first few weeks: “I'm convinced the newborn bubble is heaven on earth. Your whole body aches. You're running on zero sleep. You're learning your brand new baby. And yet, it's the most magical thing in the world.”


I wish i could feel the same about my husband and my marriage… I am trying to feel numb towards it so I can enjoy motherhood. Is that bad?

I just sometimes get really tired and mainly sad about his indifferent attitude and his sadness and depression… I sometimes picture a happy family where the husband and wife are happy together, smiling, hugging, kissing and holding their baby … but I know that’s not my reality and it might never be… so instead of focusing on that I try to soak up the love I have for her and these days that I will never get back and numb myself about how I feel about that… I know it could always be worse… but I made a choice and I have to live with the consequences… that’s my responsibility

Tired of apologizing

 I need support 

Tired of feeling guilty about what I am saying to him

Tired of him not feeding her properly and then him passing her onto me to deal w her cries

I know he is “trying” but why do I have to deal with the mess that comes after?

And on top of that he is pushing me to give her breast milk… instead of telling me that it’s my choice

And he tells everyone that this is really hard and complicated even though she is a little angel… just because the formula and breasmilk make it too complicated FOR HIM!

They say you shouldn’t judge and let people feel what they feel

And on top of all of that he keeps nagging me about how much stuff/shit we have and how tired he is of receiving amazon boxes… like 10-20 times a day… and then he calls me a liar for not throwing out the formula i had left out by mistake and then put in the fridge … because i told him i forgot to throw it out and he tells me i can’t forget things like that!

I wish I could disappear for a day and take a break… not from her but from him… he is draining my energy 

The truth is I don’t even want to take the 1 month pictures with him anymore… I am just so tired.. and he doesn’t want to take them either. I will tell him tomorrow that he doesn’t have to… I am just so tired of crying because of him… maybe being a single parent is easier after all!

Oops… I’ll just give her more formula

 No excuses… just raw feelings

I know that to anyone watching what he does is unacceptable… but I guess that’s just men… or some men. They are just dumb

Don’t get me wrong. He has been also amazing and I even tell him that myself. He has been so good to both of us. Even the “oops” moment was not intentional. And I know that you can’t make men a “loser” and ask them to apologize… but these are my raw feelings… I just hate it… I spend my time and energy pumping and I am already stressed and trying to keep calm… is it too much to ask that he at least gives me a hug and apologizes? This is not an “oops” moment… it’s a mother trying to feed her baby nutritious food and not just formula…

See you soon eshgham

 دل من سیاه ست ولی آبی رو خیلی دوست دارم

روزهای روشن آفتابی رو خیلی دوست دارم


باهوای تو تویه کوچه های دل واپسی غروب مبهم سرخابیو خیلی دوس دارم

با خیاله تو اگه باشه خیالی ندارم
شب تاصبح گریه و بی خوابیو خیلی دوس دارم

می دونم داارى میای عمریه بیقرارتم
انتظاره تو و بیتابیو خیلی دوست دارم

دوس دارم طناب ماهو بگیرم بالابرم
واسه این شبای مهتابیو خیلی دوست دارم

Man yek aadam aahani nistam

 Man yek zanam

Poraz eshgho ehsasat

To nemitooni harchi mikhay beh man begio do deghe bad keh khodet halet khoob shod behem begi keh masalaro ziad bozorg nakonamo ashti konim

Man yeh adam ahani nistam

Man beh zoodi yeh madar mishamo delam mikhad dokhtaram betooneh beh raahati raajeh beh ehsasatesh sohbat koneh

Dalileh geryam chieh? I was looking forward to seeing him after two days. I even offered to uber him home and warm ip his food. When he walked in I kissed him and said welcome back. He looked tired and hungry but happy to be home which is what I expected. I know my husband and he is not the type to give ne a tight hug and look me in the eyes to say I missed you… which is fine

Then he started inspecting the home to see what has changed which is fine too

Then he asked why things were in different places and i explained to him which he understood but for whatever reason he got a bit annoyed 

Then i saw him moving stuff around without washing his hands so i reminded him to do it and he said “well u never do it. Do u promise to wash ur hand every time u get home in the future” and that was it… u might say what a silly fight but that’s all it took… up until that point i was fine and understanding but that was my limit

I responded “no. I don’t want to argue w you”

And then he said fine and continued moving stuff around without washing his hands

Then i left him alone… i had warmed up his food but obviously there  was no way i would take it to him

I just microwaved it so he hears the beep and started washing the dishes as if i wad scared of what he’s gonna be angry about next… then i went to his room and put away my clothes… once he was done eating he came to me to ask how my weekend was to which i replied “fine” and he was like oh it’s the end of the night and ur grumpy so ill leave u alone… and i didn’t say a thing… then he came back and hugged me and asked me to let it go

I would have loved to let it go but i can’t… then he came and kissed me … and asked me to say the three words and i said no… then he asked me if i love him and i said yes

I know to him it’s so silly and may be to u as well… but once i get upset (because i was looking forward to seeing him va haalamo gereft) i am just crying and don’t want to ket it go although i know it’s not logical… im even planning on continuing to be grumpy in the morning… but will be much better once i go out and come back (i think)

It always takes me almost 4-5 days to shake this type of anger… why? Really not sure but I don’t want to change… or maybe i do… because logically i know it makes no sense but i have to respect ny feelings 

Is it because i felt disrespected and that’s my “red line”? Maybe

All i know is that all our fights are “small” and sooo silly but they just hurt me so much to my core it’s really ridiculous… is it the pregnancy hormones or just me? Is it too much to ask not to be talked to in that way?

I even told him a few days ago that I consider to be always happy in this relationship and the only time i get angry is or sad is when he is upset at me… this is 100% factual and i guess he does his best but can’t always be happy w me? 

I know that he is “depressed” and i should stay away from him 2-3 days a week because on those days he carries such a dark aura around him that it’s sickening… he says something like “i’m not happy” … then i ask why and immediately regret it. The first time he said it, which was just before we got married, it shocked me and for the first time i lost my sense of security w him because up until that point i thought there is nothing that will ever make him question wanting to be w me … i knew nothing about his depression (diagnosed by me!) and I was very very naive 

I have come to terms and acceptance on many fronts but sometimes it’s an old wound that rips open… 

Maybe I’m in denial or maybe I’m happily married? Only time will tell

I’m just so thankful for everything… khodaya shokret
