Morning sickness husband in bed

[GoatFinger]

It's like even with an ailment only women can get he still manages to need to have a half day nap!
I'm sick as a dog with 'morning' sickness and for some obscure reason my DH has decided that yesterday and today he needed a sleep for numerous hours. We already have a school age child so I can't lie down myself and try not to vomit as someone has to look after them.

I was told last week I had a face like a slapped arse because I didn't want to go to a fucking bbq while feeling sick.

Aibu to think ffs can I not just be the most unwell for once.

Any advice on whether I should feel like I have stomach flu at 7weeks. So irritated.

You poor thing, morning sickness is the worst. I found that eating constantly (I second the carbs suggestion!) was the only way to stop me feeling/being sick. I did put on 3 stone though

I was still vomiting at 5 months and had to have medication in the end. It stopped the vomiting but the nausea persisted until I gave birth. It was truly the most awful 9 months of my life but so worth it when my son was born. OP you have my sympathy. You need love and support at this difficult time.

Ignore poppoppop100 as they also think a 5 week old should be separated from their mother for hours on end.

Op you have my sympathy, I had horrible sickness and DH just seemed to think I was being dramatic until I was put on a drip.

FYI, you can be prescribed antiemetics if you feel extremely nauseous, you don't have to actually be being sick. Midwife said that they do prescribe for people with debilitating nausea even if they aren't becoming dehydrated.

The men who would consider they get morning sickness would be the ones who announce 'we' are pregnant

I was just the same with the constant nausea but minimal vomiting. It's awful isn't it? And I'm another who actually found the occasional vomits to be a release, meant I'd feel better for a few minutes. As I recall mine kicked in properly about 8 weeks, but I don't think 7 is unusually early.

Fortunately my DH was brilliant so I don't have any advice to offer on how to deal with yours. but I can tell you that his behaviour is definitely not acceptable.

Seems to be a common theme.
Napping more than the baby ffs. I remember last child my husband disappearing through the day once. Thinking he'd gone to the loo I went to find him after a while, only to see he had taken himself off to bed for a nap. I was the one up all night 5 times easily. It was the sneaky way it was done that annoyed me more. I was exhausted but baby couldn't sleep on it's back without throwing up so I lay on the floor exhausted watching the baby sleep on it's belly.
Arrghh. Still gives me the shits.

In that situation, you should've gone and woken him up.

He sounds like a real arse
