Thanks for reaching out, Kenzie!! My husband is now in his second year of residency, and I promise it gets better! But you do need to let him know how you feel!

Hi Bonni,

This response is a year later, but I’m currently married to a medical student and know EXACTLY what you mean about losing intimacy and even conversation. I would love to know if you’re doing alright now and have any tips to send along to someone who is in similar shoes.

Thank you!

PA school is a little different since it’s not as long as med school and doesn’t require a residency after, but Ihope things get better for you! Make sure he knows how you feel!

When we get married we had a 3 month break before he got started. Now he leaves the house at 3am then starts his rotation at 8am and gets home around 5/6ish… All intamcay has left our relationship, and I’m lucky if I get to see him awak for an hour or so. I try to talk with him about his day but he does not like to share. He just kind of goes into zombie mode when he gets home. I feel really lonely. That’s why I sought out some common groups to remember that I’m not alone.
I’m afraid that our current routine is going to carry over in our post medical school life because we have only really practiced our relationship habits in the realm of my husband being to tired and to over worked to engage in our life together. We have issues that we really need to deal with but he can’t right now so I just have to sit in the pit of our dysfunctional marriage. I just hope life after medical school is better

I don’t know if this will help because it’s a DO specific book, but it was the COMLEX level 2 PE review guide by Kauffman. If your husband is at an MD school that probably won’t be very helpful, though!

Do you happen to remember the name of the book of fake patients that your husband had? Thinking of buying my third year Med student hubby so I can get more involved in helping him study…love the idea!

I appreciate your blog on medical school so much! My husband will be starting his first year of med school (hopefully) this fall but for sure next fall out of state. This is not the first time I will be reading your tips! I know they will come in handy for me in the next few years. I have some questions I would love to ask you, would you mind giving me your email address? If not, I understand. Congrats on the work you and your husband have accomplished!

It was nice “meeting you”!

It’s hard to believe we are going to be done in just five months! It’s been a long journey already and I know we have several more years to go, but it’s going to be nice to get paid finally instead of paying haha! Thanks for stopping by!!

After med school and five years of an orthopedic residency, followed by another year of fellowship, it was wonderful to finally join a practice and see the fruit of all those years of labor. We had all four of our kids during med school and residency! Keep encouraging your hubby and do your best to continue to take interest in what he is learning. Those years are so sweet. My husband has been in practice since July 2006 and I sometimes even long for those days when we were working toward that goal together. Cherish the precious little time you get together and guard that marriage fiercely! Blessings to you!
