Her discomfort grew after they found out she was pregnant. Hygiene became more important to her as she wanted a clean environment for their baby, and she finally gathered the courage to ask him to shower at least three times a week. He agreed without hesitation, which surprised her, and things seemed to improve for a while.But after the baby was born, she noticed that her husband had reverted to his old routine of showering only once a week. He would come home, sweaty from work, change his clothes, and immediately start holding their newborn. His hair became greasy, and the sweat smell lingered, which started to really bother her. She worried about the potential bacteria he might transfer to their baby,
and the situation made her feel increasingly uncomfortable.Finally, she confronted him, expressing how much it bothered her. She told him that she couldn’t keep dealing with it and that it wasn’t just about her—it was also about the baby’s health. In a moment of frustration, she snapped and called him “gross” and “disgusting.” He seemed shocked by her outburst and denied that his routine had changed at all. Confused and emotional, she realized how harsh her words had been, but she was unsure how to handle the situation from here.
