I am 39w pg and dh and I have to travel to his home town to fill in some paperwork. the idiot has neglected to book us a hotel or even a B&B, we dont even know whether there is even a hospital nearby, at this rate I'll be giving rate in a bleddy barn!

part of me thinks he has done this on purpose (baby isnt his) AIBU to be flaming furious with him?

Sorry to hear you're having a hard time Maz, but don't forget how supportive your fiance has been (I have read your other threads). I think you've got a good bloke there, you'll have to forgive the occasional slip-up. These things have a way of working themselves out - am sure there'll be space for you somewhere!!

Good luck for the imminent arrival - it'll be life changing for sure!

oooh, thank you for the tip! whats the etiquette on gifts? apparently in some customs people give frankensence, gold and myrhh. the gold will come in handy, but tbh, I think I'd rather have mothercare vouchers! or is that a little ungracious?

I may be missing something important, but I don't see why you need to travel to sign paperwork - we have the postal system (including Special Delivery), email and fax machines....bring the paperwork to you = better than making heavily-pregnant-you travel near Christmas in what looks like more appalling weather for most of the country.

Xmas Grin

he has (just about) managed to sort out a donkey, but he's a carpenter. I'd have thought he'd build his wife a cart!

luckily, baby is no trouble at all. just hope he is this good when he arrives!

Two asses in your life, eh?

Book your own hotel. What do you think this is, the olden days?
