Hi all, dont know if im just overreacting.

To cut a long story short, struggling a lot with sleep lately due to pregnancy and DP hogging the bed. We have a kingsize so theres plenty room for both. Im now getting bigger with bump and DP has recently resorted to either lying on top of me or giving me such little space im hanging off the bed. This has now been happening for around 3 weeks.

Around 30 minutes ago he woke me up because he started lying on top of me again. Asked him to move around 5 times over the 30 minute period. Kept getting an attitude off him so i eventually lifted my pillows and a blanket to head downstairs for the sofa as ive got an early start at 5am.

As i took my pillows he woke up and said "what are you doing?" So i replied "im just heading downstairs to sleep because I dont want to keep waking you up when you start work tomorrow at 2pm" after i said this i was hit with "aw whatever, BYE!" in a very sarcastic way.

AIBU? i feel like hes being a bit selfish considering im not as small as i used to be now bump is well and truly out there.

This is bizarre. Surely he should move downstairs if he is disturbing you? Do you have one of those giant U shaped pillows? It can be an effective barrier. Why has he only started doing this in the last 3 weeks? Is there any way this could be deliberate?

He’s an arsehole. Sorry. Who lies on top of a pregnant woman?

Im at the stage of side sleeping as bump is large, i confronted him the other day about lying on top of me and im met with "its not my fault i dont know im doing it in my sleep."
