'I've made the tea' - no dh you fucking haven't

[NotYoMomma]

I am 9 months pregnant
9 months!

in pain, full of pregnancy rage and may be slightly unreasonable.

I can barely fooking walk yet have entertained dd1 all day,been to Asda, put tea (the key part) in the slow cooker, fetched stuff to help his family out twice (I am tres reasonable)

and ran the bath for dd (he bathed her but read that as - hewashed her hair and then sat and watched her splashing. I dried and dressed her)

it is usually a v 50/50 household and I don't put up with shit.

however. I said 'im watching GBBO at 8pm. I'll do the ironing and you do the dishes' - a reasonable split of chores no?

to which hehas replied that 'he is knackered and made the tea and bathed dd'

errrr. no dh you spooned the contents of the slowcooker onto a plate withsome uncle bens microwaved rice.

I ran the bath, dried and dressed dd while you got to do the fun slashy bit.

grrrrr I am so (unreasonably?) annoyed.

im making the dickhead watch bake off and assemble the New pushchair as punishment

You are nine months pregnant. You cannot be unreasonable.

I had to actually leave the roomto avoid shouting 'are you on glue?!' at him

what green said

He should be doing both. Sod that he is tired.

So is he suggesting that you do the ironing and the dishes while he puts his feet up?

That would be U if you weren't 9 months pregnant. As you are, you shouldn't be doing any chores at all IMO.

yanbu

i did, however, laugh at "the fun slashy bit"

Tomorrow ... Get yourself chocolate.. Bubble bath

Let him the dinner from scratch

Jokes aside.. Why have you not got your feet up.. I have a five week old and no way was I doing that amount at that stage. Look after yourself. Hope you have a safe and not too hard labour

Make him feed you chocolate at those GBBO moments when you must have sugar.

I'd have yelled at him.

YANBU even if you weren't pg, the fact that you are makes it ok if you decide to bury him under the patio.

Oh and sod the ironing. If he needs a shirt for work tomorrow make him iron one.

'i am growing a person' is the correct reply every time he mentions being tired.

Put water in the sink, say you've done the hard bit so can he just finish up washing the dishes.

Plug the iron in and do the same.

yanbu. HISBAA (he is being an arse)

ive just eaten a full Cadbury and daim bar as I have huffed at him.

his reaction (which is very unlike him to be fair) is ' well you can iron tonight and do the dishes tomorrow when I'm at work'

I have childcare tomorrow and am fully intending to have a day long bubble bath and plot his demise.

he is now doing the dishes after the pushchair.

Great idea noble!

I'm ma

I'd just point out that you might be too busy having a fucking baby!

I'm busy making a person out of food, is what you should say. Now get the fucking ironing done.

I dont actually know why I dried her, she put her arms out for me (she is a daddys girl) and I just squealed and did it.

its the whole 'ive done this and that' attitude that annoyed me.

our surname starts with H so I have been calling him 'Half a job H...' to which he has gotten the point

Agree, you could order him to stay awake all night and knit breast pads, you would still be tres reasonable at this stage in the game. in fact, I quite like that plan. mwahh

He is tired?!?!?!

No you cannot iron tonight! Or tomorrow or the next day for that matter!

You say this is uncharacteristic behaviour for him. Does he perhaps have some other, more understandable reason for feeling unusually tired today...? That he's mysteriously failed to share so far?

Having said that, I agree with pretty much everything else said on this thread, particularly your escalating scale of pram-based punishment, and noble wins the thread with his/her suggestion I think

Frankly, whatever you choose to do or say at this point is reasonable

Oh and the "half job" thing... I know exactly what you mean.

Bless you, you're so restrained. He'd have been wearing said dinner in this house.
