I've namechanged.
I suddenly became ill yesterday with a virus; feeling very sick, headache, shaky, dizzy etc, and had no choice but to lay on the sofa for the rest of the evening as I felt so ill, so DH had to do everything.
This morning I felt even worse and couldn't get out of bed so DH had to take the day off work to look after the kids, do school runs etc. He hates me being ill and always is moody if I'm ill. I could tell all day that he was moody as he was very huffy and just did the very bare minimum, ie took the kids to school, and wouldn't do anything for me such as get me a drink.
He got the kids from school, and then did their tea, and after that I felt a bit better, and having been in bed all day decided to bring a duvet down to the sofa for a couple of hours to watch tv and for some company. DH basically said to me that as I was 'up' he'd done enough and wasn't doing anything else tonight as he's tired. I asked if he'd got the uniforms ready for tomorrow, and he just went mad at me. I could tell all day that he'd been waiting for any opportunity to start an argument with me.
I tried to talk to him saying that I was just asking because they need sorting for tomorrow and he kept saying "SHUT UP" and "If you haven't got anything nice to say, DON'T say it". Then he said 'I'm going to sit upstairs, I don't want to be near YOU' and has gone off upstairs in a huff.
I'm upset. I feel low and vulnerable anyway, and he wouldn't let me say anything to defend myself and just shouted at me. I'm hardly ever ill, and I normally do everything for the DCs and all the housework as well as working.
