Before we found out she was pregnant everything was amazing happy as could be. She said I am the man she has been waiting for I showed her the true meaning of love and wants to be with me forever, since she has been pregnant about 8 weeks now she has all the mood swings I didn't know what it was at first, thought she was just beating me down for any reason and I got defensive and argued back could never get her to listen so I wrote letters every night trying to explain why I'm angry now, then started reading more about hormones and I have been trying so freakin hard to be understanding and patient I do everything I possibly can to show her I love her care for her let her know I'm right by her side, but she says she needs space from me does not know if it's the right thing to be with me because I was a jerk for a week and she says she was not mean in any way. She does not tell me she loves me too when I tell her she just says I know I'm trying so hard I love her more then anything I've ever known don't want to lose her is this just a phase too?

We can't possibly tell you about her or what's a phase or not... just keep in mind that when a woman gets pregnant, she is hit with a lot more than hormones. She has this THING in her body that she can't change her mind about very easily (and at 8 weeks, she could still, and it might be nagging at her) and she's going to be responsible for it for the next 18 years and 9 months. It's going to change her life, take a lot of her freedom, and be wanting something from her just about every hour of the day. TALK TO HER. Ask her if she's worried or afraid about the future and what you can do to help. Can you provide for the 3 of you? That's the age old first question.

And are you married?? Have you even considered the fact that a woman with a child on the way might want to have that contract? True love, please. You have a long way to go before understanding that love comes AFTER all the nuts and bolts.

It's possible that she does just have a case of raging hormones. Try to back off a little, but continue to let her know that you care and are there for her.

How long have you been seeing one another? Is it possible that she was expecting you to be thrilled about the baby and want to get married?

You think your freaking out and confused, and don't know what to do? Imagine what she is going through. All that you are and a lot more because she has life inside her.

Your job sir as a new soon to be father is,

Keep your voice low, and your attitude supportive, and understanding, no matter what mood she is in, no matter what her actions are. She is the center of the universe, no matter what you feel, or get put thru. Never forget that.
That means control YOURSELF at all times, stay cool, calm, and collected, at all times, and just do your best.

It helps to have a good older friend to vent to, talk with, and can get guidance from, because you need as much support as she does.

It's a tough challenge for you both, but this is the easy part, LOL, it gets more challenging after the child get her and reality hits you between the eyes.

Making babies is a life changing event for all involved. Get use to it.
