Ok hormonal rant coming up.

I am 31 weeks pregnant, I have had both of my boys off sick since last tuesday, they would have gone back today but for some reason school decided to have an inset 4 days before they finish for christmas.

I have SPD and nasty Rib flare so not mobile enough to take them out and about. TBH household tasks prove a challenge at the moment. They have been cooped up for days, they have bitched and fought all pissing day long.

Yesterday I cleand the hous top to bottom with the exception of the two loads of washing that was ther because DH promised to do it. Washing is still there btw.

I just asked him not to be too late home from work, we need stuff from teh shop, the boys need tea and his reply was "ill be home no later than 7:30pm and to be fair you can make them tea and stop being so lazy Angry

Probably a good job hes not here, else I'd have punched him in the face. Now im "getting my knickers in a twist"

OP,you should be able to take opiate-based painkillers, as long as you taper off/stop a couple of weeks before your due date. According to my GP, as long as they're out of yours and the baby's system before birth then it's ok

for you and a huge kick up the arse for your DH, they're all the bloody same, these men. I ended up in hospital twice with exhaustion and bleeding after trying to keep house for my lazyfeckerDP and domestically challenged teenagers while pregnant with severe SPD

Cognitive - I wish I could but I can give birth anyday now and dont want to have a prem baby to fight against that as well :( I will be going straight to bed when I have eaten and had a bath, he can deal with boys bedtime and packed lunches and ironing uniforms.

ooops, just saw that you have a history of early labour, ignore me (re painkillers)

does your SPD allow you to kick him in the nuts and see how much he feels like doing?

another tick in the box against SPD then!

Bloody hell - I cannot believe he even thought that, let alone said it! What an arse. I don't care how stressful his day has been, it's no excuse.

Why can't he get the bits on the way home. Give him a list - even a child can manage that.

Could you afford a cleaner for a little while?

Oh Jingle - please have a very unmumsnetty (((hug))) MW said I had hypermesis, but as I wasn't hospitalised, I prefer to say it was bad morning sickness. It has tapered off now, but I am still being sick a few times per week and cannot eat properly.

Definitely let DH deal with the kids tonight and you rest as much as possible.
