I've been ill with tonsilitis since thursday last week, woke up this mornign and pain is worse and i also have a banging headache!!!

begged and pleaded Asked DH to go into work after the nursery run with ds (so arriving at work around 4pm and working through till 8.30pm) and he refused point blank... He is the manager so i know he has the power to sort something out, he has in the past.

He then stayed in bed for an extra hour while i got the dc's out of bed, changed and dressed them, got them breakfast, hoovered, fed the cats and rabbit, put washing out, washing on and folded and put away all the clean clothes, washed pots AND made his lunch for at work... in the same time he got up, got dressed and got himself breakfast then left.

I've been ill for 5 days running and this is the first day i've asked anything of him, i've been having dizzy spells and cant face phoning DS's nursery and him having the day off because i'm ill!!

AIBU to be just a little bit upset DH hasn't even tried to help me?

Oh sorry to hear you are still feeling so poorly Glaskham but glad that dh has changed his schedule to give you more help. (The more pressure at work my dh is under the more tight-lipped he becomes - and this can make him appear unsympathetic when he isn't really - so I can understand the problem!) Hope your dh gets out of bed early to help you tomorrow though!!!

Get better soon x

Door mat - you made his lunch for fark sake. Lie down and let him dance a jig on your belly, why don't you.

YANBU but, ill as you are, put your foot down and tell him to shapre himself!
