Apologies for this probably long and Boring post but just need to VENT
My baby is due today and no signs that he is on his way, my usually lovely DH has been 'sick' since I started my maternity over 3 weeks ago!! He first had flu and it seems to have turned into sinusitis, he seems to be getting really sharp pains in his face several times a day and its keeping him awake at night. Luckily he gets to work from home so this helps. The problem is this pain is making him in such a foul mood and depressed he's really putting a dampener on my maternity leave. I feel like I'm walking on eggshells round the house, we hardly speak unless he feels well enough. It's so ANNOYING.... This is meant to be my time to relax and for us to look forward to our baby coming but this fricking illness has overtaken everything!!! I know I probably sound like a spoilt brat, I hardly ever get ill myself and really have to make a massive effort to be sympathetic but three weeks of him feeling sorry for himself is really getting on my tits. He said this morning after another night of no sleep 'this is a real crap existence to live in' ARGHHH GROW A PAIR!!! HOW WILL YOU COPE WITH NO SLEEP WHEN THE BABY COMES??? obviously I just went with something like 'sorry you feel that way darling'
also this stupid illness has put a halt on decorating the baby room, we ripped up the carpet a month ago and need to repair and sand floorboards, he isn't the best at DIY so used this illness as an excuse not to do it, I feel gutted that I haven't been able to get his room ready before he comes... I want to nest!! when will we get chance to do it???
Ok, rant over, please feel free to tell me IABU and give me a slap round the face- just needed to get it all out after 3 weeks of playing nurse wifey.
Sorry it's soooo long and self indulgent!!!!!!!
