NC'd as outing
Disclosure, I'm 14 weeks pregnant, not sleeping well and pissed off so I may well bu
Dh is normally so good, kind and supportive but recently he's been a bit of a twat and I'm running out of patience.
He's working in the office, I'm wfh.. with 2 kids ages 10 and 6. I'm finding it very hard to balance and I've told him this.
He's made a few comments when he gets in from work, such as the living room is a mess, or the bins have been left out all day. I shut that down by asking him how many times he tidied the living room or took the bins in whilst working.
Then he expresses annoyance when I have to work past my shift. I only have to do this if I've had to stop working to see to the kids during the day. Trust me it's not a choice.
Today was the final straw.
I'm so emotional and probably a bit depressed. I've had a constant headache for 2 days now and I can't even take any decent painkillers cos I'm preg.
He asked me what was wrong and I said i was really struggling to hold it together.
No hug, words of support or any empathy.
I cooked for a total of 3 hours today... Sunday roast plus batch cooking for the week. When he finished eating the roast he said 'not your best effort is it luv' I told him to go fuck.
Then he asks me why I'm so cranky today. I said I'm not cranky I just feel so ill. Then he laughed! Wtf
Aibu for wanting to stick a fork in his eyeball? Or am I just being emotional?

Blimey, his kids? I'd be making a list of all the home-schooling activities he needs to do with them and wash my hands of it. Same with cooking for anyone but me and washing anything but my own clothes.

We don't have to do all the wifework we REALLY BLOODY DON'T. House is untidy? Tidy it up instead of moaning to your busy wife about it. Don't notice that your wife is doing everything? Wise up, mate, or she'll stop.

I can't believe people still put up with this. (well i do, and i know that relationships are complicated. But blimey it gets on my tits)
