A few years ago, you met Simon, and it was as if sparks flew between you. The chemistry was undeniable, and not long after, your lives changed forever with the birth of your son, Ben. He brought immense joy and a whirlwind of new responsibilities. Just two years later, Arthur came along, adding to the laughter and chaos in your home.

As the years passed, the realities of parenthood began to take their toll. While Simon worked hard to provide for the family, you found yourself managing most of the household duties and caring for the children. This shift made it increasingly difficult to maintain the romantic connection you once shared. Date nights became rare, and moments for just the two of you were few and far between.

Now, you’re pregnant again, and this time, the experience is particularly challenging. The side effects are overwhelming, leaving you fatigued and often uncomfortable. Doctors recommend that you take it easy, but with two young children to care for, finding time to rest feels nearly impossible.

Each evening, as Simon returns home from work, you’re usually in the thick of bedtime routines, juggling stories and settling Arthur and Ben down for the night. It’s a balancing act that often leaves you exhausted but fulfilled. Despite the challenges, you hold onto the hope that once Simon will step up again like he used to do.
