Hi guys. So me and OH live together and have been together for 3 years but we have only lived together since October.. we are engaged and i am due on the 7th of March, he has epilepsy and had a seizure on new years eve and lost his license for another year, he was due to get his license back on the 5th of February and had a driving job lined up. Which obviously he cant do any more.. but he told me hes going to wait now until he can drive again to get a delivering job.. (also his epilepsy isnt bad it is triggered by to much alcohol which stupidly he drank to much the night before and that's why he took one) so he is kind of beating himself up a bit To. But this is my AIBU... I am worried that we will fight more with a new baby and he will be round the house to much and we will spend to much time together, as we will both be tired being up all night with baby etc,is it unreasonable that I would rather him go back to work a few weeks after I have the baby?? Even if its somewhere 2 days a week, I just know that even now when we spend to much time together we do each others heads in, also he relys on me a lot as he cant drive at the minute so it's mostly me taking him places or picking up his daughter at the weekend and sometimes I drop her home the next day or sometimes my OH mum leaves her home, I have said to him i cant really run him here and there when the baby is here.. there is a bus stop right outside our front. What's other peoples opinions would there OH do there head in if they didnt work for a year??

I am on maternity leave I am 36 weeks pregnant PP, just feel like we will spend way to much time together both being off! Sometimes that ruins relationships

I wouldn’t spend all that money from the granny (if it is the large amount it sounds like). If she dies within 7 years you might find you owe tax on it. Depending on the figures.

Op, what ruins relationships is if 9ne person is a lazy shit. Not spending time off together for a period when you're on maternity leave.

Can't you set your sights a bit higher in what you expect from a proper partner?

"I hope when the baby is born he gets a kick up the ass" He already has a 7-year old and behaves this way-it's YOU who needs an ass kick-you are very vulnerable housing and financially wise with a lazy partner

Well done getting pregnant to a useless waste of space. I don’t know why you are bothering posting here when it’s too late to do anything about it bar leave and be a single mother.

You also don’t even seem to like him! I love spending time with my DH. I’ve never gotten bored of him and if anything would love to spend even more time with him.

This is a car crash. I fee sorry for all these children being born to useless and quite frankly thick as shit parents.

So does having a child with a waste of space. You have bigger things to worry about than spending too much time together.
