A woman is seven months pregnant when she finds out that her husband is cheating on her. The affair is discovered because he infects her with a sexually transmitted disease.
The woman (38), who wishes to remain anonymous, and her husband (42) have been married for 10 years and have two daughters together. The woman is seven months pregnant with her third child, the Sun reports.
A few months ago, she noticed a change in her husband’s behavior. He had become distant, moody and cold, constantly looking for excuses to leave the house and staying out longer and longer, the woman told the tabloid. “I asked him if he was having an affair, but he said that was ridiculous. He would never do something like that to me.”
One day she felt a burning sensation when she went to the toilet. “Then I tested positive for chlamydia and there was no denying it anymore.” Her husband finally admitted that he had cheated on her. He said nothing for fear that she would leave him and take the children with her.
The young woman’s world collapsed. “I feel betrayed in many ways,” she told the Sun. Her husband had not only cheated on her, but had also put her health and that of her child at risk.
A couples therapist advises the woman to speak openly and honestly about her feelings and to consider couples therapy. In order to save the relationship, both partners must work on their relationship and rebuild trust, says the expert.
Chlamydia is a genus of bacteria known as sexually transmitted pathogens. They cause the disease chlamydiosis, which is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) worldwide. In women, untreated chlamydia infections can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancy, and infertility. In men, they can cause inflammation of the urethra.
Chlamydia can also be transmitted from an infected mother to the newborn during birth, which can lead to eye infections or pneumonia in the baby.
