I’m breastfeeding a 3 week old baby and my dinner is a mushroom. AIBU to murder my husband in a hangry rage?!

Literally that.

MIL bought some big mushrooms at the weekend and there was one left, so she put some breadcrumbs and cheese on it for me. A little while ago I fell asleep on the sofa. Woke up and asked DH what he wanted for dinner. He said he’d just had his, he cooked/ate it while I was asleep. He made himself a bowl of pasta. I asked if there was any left for me? “No, I didn’t make you any. I thought you were having that mushroom.”

So... my dinner is a mushroom.

This mushroom isn’t the size of a plate or anything. It’s a big mushroom, but it’s still just a fucking mushroom.

Lol , Next time you cook dinner for him make it a mushroom . Hope you gave him the death stare .

that mushroom is what is commonly known as 'a starter'

I want to know whether OP's MiL deserves some of the blame here. did she put some breadcrumbs and cheese onto the mushroom for OP intending it to be an extra nutritious snack that OP could enjoy while DH cooked dinner, or is she doing a snide 'let's help you get your pre-baby figure back shall we dear' thing and encouraging OP & DH to consider the weight loss benefits of eating meals that are no more than 150 calories while needing to generate 1000 calories worth of breast milk every day on top of her own calorie needs.
Any MiL will have a role in setting up how her son approaches the task of being a decent husband and father in this scenario, and there are certainly women out there who would do the latter.

Ooh, that looks nice though. You can still kick him right in the shins though, he is being a tosser.

Yes the mushroom does look nice, but it could do with a big steak and a pile of chips next to it.

Wow so the pig made himself dinner but didnt think that to make some for you. Do people really live like this - each for their own??
I would be so hurt and see my dh in a new light about how truly selfish someone can be. It's actually not funny and if it needs pointing out to him then that's even worse.

If it's any consolation, my DH once proudly made me a cucumber salad as a "main" meal. Yes it's a traditional SIDE dish where he comes from, but FFS I had just given birth.

He is a selfish selfish man who is not going to change. Endlessly posting about him isnt going to change what you know. Which is he is not a good man/husband/Dad.

Quite a jump just because he didn't make OP dinner

*My dh went back to work when our child was 4 days old, I am a grown up and able to cook for myself or you know what said to dh when he was there and he’d already eaten pus a pan of water on for me / put toast on. Op could have even handed baby to her dh and said look after while I get myself something to eat

Plus according to mn you’re not meant to wake up a sleeping mother*

This.

I was on my own and made my own dinner alongside baby. It's not the crime of the century.

Keep it for his dinner tomorrow.
Order yourself a huge pizza and don't let him have any ....or maybe a slice of mushroom off the top😉

I wouldn’t say anything at the time and just be “oh ok”
Then the next time it was my turn to make dinner, I’d obviously make myself something lovely and for him a large mushroom. Fake confusion if he says anything.
