This morning DP woke up and told me he had a weird dream about me being pregnant again and that was it. However, this afternoon he's been asking me to take a pregnancy test in case I am, I've told him I'm not and he is still telling me too, I told him I was on my period about 2 weeks ago and again, he's not believing it even though I told him I was at the time as I asked him to pick up some pads. He asked if id take one if he went out to buy it, I said no but he's gone out anyway.

Aibu by refusing take one?

Because she's saying she's not, it's her body and she doesn't want to. He's basically calling her a liar. DH wouldn't ask me to pee on a stick if I said I wasn't pregnant.

I didn’t read he’d called her a liar or even implied it, more that it’s got stuck in his head that she is pregnant and he now insists on knowing for sure. He’s guilty of not listening to her explaining she knows her own body . Sure. A target controlling. But maybe the dream was very vivid and has resulted in inane anxiety.

OP, it’s still morning. Wait until this evening when the vividness and immediate anxiety has calmed down. Then talk to him about how you know you’re not pregnant. If he’s still being a prat then say you will take one when you’re period is late ..not before..as it is meaningless just now.

Ok, just read agin and seen he was demanding this later in afternoon. So not while dream was still vivid. Nope, he has to wait until her period is late. No point before .

It is possible to be having regular periods and still be pregnant. By the time I realized and got scanned, I was 11 weeks gone. The only reason I tested was because my boobs were sore, and I was puzzled why.
