Has anyone else experienced an overwhelming surge of love for their spouse in early pregnancy?

I am very early pregnant (still in 4-5 week range) and for the last day or two I’ve been feeling this intense wave of admiration, affection, and love for my husband. Not in a romantic movie kind of way. More like I look at him and my heart feels so full I could cry.

We have been through the wringer over the past months of trying due to PMOS and worrying about infertility issues, so when we found out I cried a lot and we still have concerns about carrying to term and hoping for no miscarriage.

Everything he does seems endearing. I keep thinking about how lucky I am to have him, how excited I am to raise a child with him, and how grateful I am that he’s my partner. It’s almost overwhelming.

I know that he probably doesn’t get how sappy I am right now.

I’m trying to figure out if this is a pregnancy hormone thing, an emotional response to finally being pregnant after wanting it for so long, or some combination of both.

For context, he’s been incredibly supportive, and we’re both excited, but this feels like my emotions are turned up to 1,000%.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who’s randomly looked at their husband and thought, “I love you so much it physically hurts.” 😂
