to think I should be supported more.

Ok, so I am 28 weeks pregnant. Dh doesn't seem to be making any allowances for this. I am also wrong side of 40!. Bmi , the wrong side of 30. I suffer from mild asthma and digestive issues.
Examples.
I say I may find holiday in St I|ves a little tough at 36 weeks. Dh response. "My mum climbed whatever when she was 37 weeks". Well your mum was in her 20's and didn't have asthma.
i say how tired I am as waking at least 4 times a night due to said digestive problams, needing loo and generally tossing ans turning. Reply, "i am so tired too as I am being woken at 5 and having to get up at 6 and we don't have a spare room I can go into." I do accept he does work hard and need sleep and my workload is much lighter but really.
My work involves transporting stock. I often work when dh is around but he never offers to help.
Sorry need to let off steam.

Every time he makes a comment back about being tired, reply 'yes, but I am growing a whole person in here' and point to your bump.

There really is no trumping that!

My husband's response, the first time I used that to show him how silly he was being was, 'Okay, but you can't only use that excuse for about 6 more months!'

It gave us humour and space to talk about things, as well.

I was about 12 weeks of when dh mentioned he didn't get why I was so tired. So I told him 'i have grown a set of kidneys this well, what have you done'. Like op we laughed and then I told him unless he himself has ever been pg (not his mum or sister) he doesn't get an opinion my tiredness etc.
No point having an argument over it and he saw my point.

Wait until it's here. The doc said to Dh "Mr Jumping, remember to tell your wife PND isn't mandatory and tell her to snap out of it". I hadn't even come round from the anaesthetic at that point!

You need to break the cycle of "competitive tiredness" before the baby arrives. Or things will be very tough indeed for you.

Good luck.

The thing is its's not our 1st so he does know what it will be like. However, last time he used to go in spare room and leave me to it. I was breastfeeding and SAHM at the time.

thank you.

Well, now he needs to pull his weight and help with the other children while you are busy creating a new one.

And, no, it won't get better once the baby is here. Start as you mean to go on and put your foot down.

"..but you are not going on holiday with your mum... " may have worked... if not send him on holidaywith his mum
