to have just realised my dh might actually be a saint.

i've just found a very old video stored on the video camera of me when i was 2 weeks overdue with dd1. I'm so fat and i can hardly open my eyes due to water retention.
Dh is filming me unaware whilst i make dinner. He asks if i would like a hand and i launch into full scale attack which goes something like this
" f off and leave me alone stop effing talking to me espescially when i'm doing things you should effing no that by now" He just laughs.
I can't believe i was so horrible to him but he says oh yeah your like that all the time when your pregnant. No wonder not keen on another one i am truly

Tell me your being nasty stories when pregnant to make me feel better.

I have only seen Df cry 3 times. The day we were told dd was going to be prem, the day we were told Ds was unlikely to survive and one paticular mega bitch moment when i was 12 weeks pg with dd and he had and sobbed his heart out on the sofa.

I really was a cow, i cant believe quite how much of a cow

I go a bit weird in my first trimester. This time I got extremely paranoid and upset at everything and of an evening would sit and rant on about utterly ridiculous scenarios eg if DD or I dropped dead in the high street all the passers by would be really pleased and laugh...

Not exactly a fun time! DH would just sort of back into a corner looking worried. Poor bloke...

When I was about 7 months pregnant a new girl started at my husbands work, she was reporting into him so he took her out for lunch to welcome her etc - pretty standard practice at his place for any new starters and something he's done numerous times.

Anyway, he made the mistake of telling me when he got home and I went off on one, accussed him of having an affair, that he didn't love me - so unreasonable!! He often teases me about it now, I get so embarrassed to think I was so awful!

I also used to make him do EVERYTHING, I would get home from work and lie on the sofa and bark orders at him the whole evening, he never once complained, makes me feel very lucky!!

Oh, I was a snarling bag of progesterone with all 3 of my pregnancies !! In fact, for the last one we subconciously timed it so that DH would be away for the largest part of it- he came home for the birth!

During the first two, I hurled accusations of not loving me, not wanting the baby (because he forgot to put out the binbag !), and generally being useless. If he did the housework, it was to show me up as a lazy slob. if he said I looked nice he was patronising me. If he made any jokes about orca/ killer whales I was waddling off in tears...

Yup, I remember now why I don't want to have any more!!

lol JandM.
with Ds i took all our sofa covers off when i was 8 months washed them then refused to let dh sit on the sofa until the baby was born so as the house would stay tidy, i was bloody loopy and 2 weeks overdue. I think the worst thing is that he did it just to keep me happy he must have been very scared because theres no way he'd do it now.

I think a man confronted with an insane pregnant OH reacts with extreme caution - as with an unpredictable rattlesnake or suchlike.

I think that this is entirely sensible of them.

lol at all these stories. When I am PG I get very short tempered (very unusual for me) and snap at everyone.

When I was overdue with DD, DH and I were in Tesco getting some bits and bobs and the young man on the till asked me if I had a club card. For some reason it wound me up the wrong way and DH said afterward that I gave the guy one of my 'kill you know looks' and said no I don't if I had a club card I would have given it to you. Apparently I was really horrible, whereas in my own mind I was being very good and holding my temper well for not telling him to fuck off.

When DH mentioned it I cried all the way home, I am very about it now.

I am vile when I am pregnant - one of my main reasons for not trying to persuade DH that baby No4 would be a good idea.

I clearly remember throwing his supper at the window because he dared to tell me he wasn't too keen on one of the ingredients

I don't know, all this sounds perfectly reasonable to me

I was vile in my first trimester - I felt nauseous constantly and was really sensitive to smell. Everytime DH came anywhere near me, I told him to piss of because he smelt and was making me feel sick
