to think my (not very D)H should remember to ask me about my consultant appointment?

[skiwaddle]

Now I know I am VERY hormonal and sensitive atm (36 wks pg) but I had an appt with the consultant this morning which DH knew all about (looked at bus timetable together this morning to work out which bus I needed to get). It was at 9am. Came back, no phone call/email from H to ask how it went. Forwarded him an email about something completely unrelated which he replied to and no mention of my appt.

Consultant found that my bp has gone up and my baby is measuring small for dates - he's not too worried atm but will keep a close check on me.

I suppose I am really upset about what the consultant said but feel so pissed off with H for not even remembering to ask, I mean really really want to cry pissed off... AIBU?

jesuswhatnow - i wish - i fainted at a train station on saturday - felt straight onto the concrete floor - a policewoman rushed over to ask DH if she should call an ambulance and he laughed and said, oh God no, she'll be fine , it happens all the time' (it doesn't)

I don't think ANYTHING would scare him. He is the most laid-back person I have ever met but sometimes that isn't a good thing!

i think i would now poke him in the eye with a sharp stick!

he needs a good solid dose of pain!

Do you not know that all men are selfish twats and this is normal behaviour from them

frosty, i think most of us find that out when the baby is about 3 weeks old don't we?

before then they lulled us into a false sense of security

but the train station thing is a little bit funny! my dh drove me mad wanting to take me to a and e for every twinge last time round but this time i said i was feeling ill and he let me walk out of the shop alone (i thought he would follow) to faint on the street by myself!!

your dh will love and worry endlessly about the baby once it is here, but it a different experience for him the whole pregnancy thing to what you are feeling. He can 'forget' about baby for a bit at a time whereas i expect you are too big and uncomfy to forget your pregnant for a second now!!! even if earlier on you could turn off pregnancy concerns.

dont stress about it, relax and chilled mummy equals happy baby! oh and they reckoned dd was small, she was born 6lb 13 oz with apgars of 9 and 10 so i wouldnt worry about small for the dates too much it is hard to tell at this point!

littleducks - sorry but that made me laugh... just the way it was phrased.

that's more like it jesus and frosty!

thanks littleducks - you are absolutely right and that is why I have been (relatively) laid back this pg - with dd (now 2) the moment she was born he was absolutely brilliant despite being beyond crap during the pregnancy. I have no doubt he will be the same this time round but these little things can get on top of you sometimes (in case you couldn't tell )
