Ok so hit me with both barrels I know you will.

I am in the very early days of pregnancy with my fourth child. I have 3DCs 10,7 and 3. Dh works a 50 hour week and usually gets home at 7. But today he was able to get home at 5.30. AIBU to have left him to cook dinner and sort out the Dcs while I lie in bed? Shock

I could sleep for the uk (new olympic sport) at the moment, resisting shut eye right now as I won't sleep tonight.

Dunno - probably when you start demanding he peels you grapes as well. Wink If he's anything like my DH, if it was a problem he'd soon tell you. Enjoy the fact you have a lovely chap.

Yanbu if you need alittle sleep he is more than capable of doing tea for the dc and put them to bed

the first trimester is murder with the tiredness alone. never mind the nausea, spottiness, aching boobs, etc.

YANBU, i'm sure you've looked after the children and made him his dinner while he relaxes/recovers from illness... and i know pg isn't an illness, but it sure as hell feels like one at times. esp in first few months.

lolajane2009 · 11/04/2012 19:26

he made them too, why shouldnt he do his part if you are tired.

birthdaygurl · 11/04/2012 19:37
