to be annoyed at DH?

So he got a new phone a week or so ago. He has been messing about with it lots over the course of the last week, doing stuff with computers in the house and his phone etc...

Today he has spent 4 hours in the bedroom alone syncing his phone to do clever stuff from PC. Whilst i am proud of his cleverness (i can now use his phone as a remote to play movies on the PC when i manage to detatch it from his hand!) I am pissed off.

4 times throughout the course of today I have asked him to carry the wet washing up the stairs for me so I can hang it up. The wash finished at 4pm. It is still sitting downstairs in the kitchen. Ditto th basket of dirty washing that needs carrying downstairs. He "forgot".

I am 18 weeks preg, hyperemesis in full swing (again) and SPD kicking in, so hobbling about, and he also knows today I have had watery discharge which I am worried about.

He's been acting like a battered husband all day, cowering whenever he speaks to me. I know Im hormonal. I know I am incapableof carrying things but FFS take your eyes of your phone DH and help me!

I also bathed the two boys on my own. And whilst he di put younger one to bed, this was only because his room is next to our bedroom and he had the excuse to stay at the PC for longer.

I just asked him whether he hung the basket of washing up. He said no. So I said, admittedly in a sarcastic tone "did you forget again" He huffed, rolled his eyes and has now shut himself in bathroom to get a bath(with the sodding phone)

I told him i have had some mild crampy pains. I dont think he gives a shit tbh :(

I have done well not to scream and shout a hormonal rant at him havent i? Ive been in bed alone since 8pm worrying.

YANBU....leave the washing in his fave chair, stop bathing the kids totally now....he can take that on... and stop doing ANYTHING around the house until the discharge is sorted...let it all pile up...he'll get the picture. Have you asked the doctor about the discharge? Hope you feel better soon...go to bed early.

Julez, am pissed off with mine too so YANBU

discharge seems to have stopped for now, but if there is anymore overnight I will ring MW in the morning.

Ive been in bed since 8pm dozing on and off. He just came up and switched the light on which woke me up, but i wasnt really asleep anyway.

yadnbu that would really annoy me too. my dh has similar tendancies but sounds like in your situation your dh needs to be making a lot more effort. why cant he wait and play with phone later after making self a bit useful first
