I’ve had a slightly shit time in late pregnancy (low placenta- bleeding and SPD) and I can’t help but be disappointed in how my partner has acted throughout pregnancy. He has always been a bit of selfish man when it comes to certain things. He doesn’t do any cleaning, washing or cooking and it’s partly my fault as I completely pamper him.
I’ve been put on bed rest by the doctor after a big bleed and I can honestly say he hasn’t lifted a finger, except to make some food most of which is done with stomping, crashing about and foul mood. I end up just doing it myself and together with all the cleaning and washing I am now at the point where I’m bleeding again while he is sitting here being vocal over the footy.
I didn’t know how unsupportive my partner would be and I just feel so sad and alone with it all. I am due to have a c section soon and would honestly rather my mum in the room with me for support as I can’t even imagine him being able to be a supportive birthing partner. Am I being unfair to do this?
