Waking for a dog when pregnant is different to waking for night feeds?

I'm just so pissed off,
DH has woken me about 5 times throughout the night to check the dog as she's been restless and hes just woken me again to let her out- 1, I'm pregnant 2, Iv been up in the night with my SEN DS (he doesn't sleep and I think I now sleep walk an sort him its same time every night so just becomes routine and you get used to it !)

So my response was- I'm knackered why can't you instead of keep waking me up when your clearly awake ? (Common sense huh?)
He then says "we'll if You can't wake up with a dog how on earth will You cope with night feeds and waking with the new baby?

Iv breast fed all 3 of our kids and he never did a night feed once, wasn't an issue for me because I absolutely loved it and it's my baby it's a different kind of having to wake up? But also I'm pregnant I'm bound to be more knackered surely? He is just an utter d@*K!!!!

@sweetpeach123 incredibly brave and proactive of you. Don't doubt yourself or let him twist things!

Waking you through the night, especially while pregnant, is abusive.

@Vidax
He's been an utter arse since he got back from his 2 week lads holiday that he barely spoke to me during .... do the maths?

erm, I hate to point out the obvious, OP, but that doesn’t bode well at all…

Oh he knows I'm strong, I'm even stronger headed when it effects my kids, he's in for a shock when I apply for divorce! Thinks everything is his but I didn't sign a prenup !
Everything is in his name. He has a lot of money and I have F all basically.... but I pay all the bills etc that's all in my name.
he pays gas and electric and his own spending. Il come out on top! He deserves to be treated like shit for a change and have worries.

I'm Off to buy my baby's pram this morning so sod him. I don't need him nor do they I'm been positive and looking to the future!! X

It would appear the issues are a lot longer than since he returned from holiday!

He's beyond unreasonable OP
You sound very strong- you'll be well rid! (Take the dog too) 😉

He went on holiday without her. He has been more of an arse since he returned. Either guilt from all the shagging around, or he has had a taste of the single life again and is too chicken shit to say, so is hoping op throws him out so he can pretend the end of the relationship is her hormonal unreasonableness rather than him being a cheating scumbag. That would be my guess.

@LorenzoVonMatterhorn I agree with the fact he's had a taste of single life.... and probably shagging around whilst he's at it if I'm honest. He's a totally different person, looks at me like shit and like I'm about to make him be sick?
I just feel so lonely at the moment. I'm que position 243 in housing for a house, Iv actually been on this list for a few years and always bid incase anything in a better area came up for me ( he knows I hate we're we live and I'd love to move but the renting privately is soooo expensive we're I'd ideally like to move near family !)
Just bide my time x
