As above!

'D'H has form for being selfish but has got much much worse since ive been pregnant. TBH i think i would find hard to find anyone who is as selfish & entitled as him. It remains to be seen what happens here long term.

6pm on monday vomiting+++ feel like crap. DH at work yesterday, irs a new job so cant have time off (its fine dont expect him to!) So spend the day vomiting while caring for DS 4. Comes home, no offer of do i need anything picked up?? Bearing in mind he knows i have not been able to get out, no howre you feeling? Can i do anything? barely says 2 words to me tbh Hmm.

18 months ive supported this arsehole when he hasnt been working & this is what i get!! Never ever again thats for sure. Ive been expected to lie to his parents they still think he works at the job he lost 18 months ago! Not happy doing this but the shit i would get is unbelievable Confused.

Constantly makes sarky digs about how hes going to have a good 'clean up' of this place (whilst im working!), shows no interest or care in me & baby, has got us into debt- champagne lifestyle on a lemonade budget, and is generally useless with the other DC.

Ive worked continually 60 hour weeks to support him. Im a nurse in the NHS.

Message my mum to say how ill i feel & this is the reply 'oh sorry you feel unwell love, what vegatables does your DH want for his Christmas dinner i know theres a ew he doesnt like' Hmm

Sorry for the rant feeling sorry for myself tonight!

He's a tit.
Stop covering for him.
I'd hope if you spoke to him he'd engage but from your comments it sounds like he doesn't care.
60hrs a week as a nurse without pregnancy is hard enough.
I feel for you.
What was he like with the first child?

Bloody hell OP he has a nerve you've covered his arse working 60hr weeks as a nurse and he is treating you like this!! I also am NHS so I know its not easy out there atm or anytime tbh.
I'd be sitting him down and telling him a few home truths if I were you. Dont cover for him again he is an adult so surely can own up to his failures like losing his job.
What a tosserAngry on your behalf. You deserve better than him.

Only my second DC is his & he was shit when he was born, & that is what is definitely going to happen this time, i can feel it. This pregnancy wasnt planned, but i know i can do it all alone if i have to.

He lost his job through not being able to follow rules/thinks hes above other people/doesnt like being told what to do. Unfortunately his family (& mine) think hes golden boy because thats what he allows them to see Hmm

I have spoken to him many times, he thinks hes great & im overreacting! Will never apologise for being in the wrong etc. Im fed up. Ive asked him to leave before & he wont (his names on the tenancy), no one i know, although supportive, can house me & soon to be 3 DC. Im stuck in hell.

Ok firstly I'd start with enlightening his family and yours exactly what has been going on for the last 18 months, how he is useless at home and generally just a waste of space.
Both you and your children should not be tolerating this man child. You are worth so much more. Let him see you mean business and that you aren't going to be walked all over anymore.
Could you move in with your parents at all until alternative accommodation can be arranged. He sounds like a bloody nightmare that won't change because he can't see that he is in the wrong and take responsibility for his actions. If his track record at work is so bad it might just be a matter of time before he is sacked from this job.
You cannot keep covering for him OP let them all know what a shit husband and father he really is.
I am a midwife just finished my shift and you need to rest or you may end up in hospital with dehydration. I'm so angry for you he should be caring for you and helping you.
