To be soooo annoyed with DP.

[NotSoSkinnyNow]

ok, this is a long one, and before I start, I know I am prob being the unreasonable one, but pregnancy hormones are clouding my judgement and I need a kick up the arse from someone other than DP.
Had a big argument with him earlier over DS's bath of all things. Well, I was pissed off at DP cos he wouldn't do the bath for me (even tho it was my turn but in fairness, I did it for him one night as he was tired, and I only asked tonight cos I have a very sore back, am pregnant, and it was quite painful to lift DS. He recon's I'm faking the sore back story and we should "stick to the rota"). The whole thing only turned into an argument cos he would't stop pushing me into it. I was quite happy (well, not happy) to just leave it and do the bath etc myself despite the awful pain.
Anyway, it turned into a big argument with dp really upsetting me and blaming me as usual. I'm so annoyed with him at the moment, for so many things and I find myself resenting him.

How can I get all this out of my system and stop feeling like this. Any time we argue, I try to explain how I'm feeling but he manages to twist my words and make me feel like I'm being a total bitch, holding a grudge etc. I just get really upset which he can't handle and everything spirals out of control with him shouting at me.

Now he's gone to bed and I'm sitting here and all the small things are really getting to me.

Thanks NSSN.

Try vanilla ice cream for the heartburn, worked wonders for me! I was using the Green&Black's vanilla - mmmmm.

Thumbwithc and chipping are right. You DO need to tell someone else and let someone see what stress you are in and then I'm afraid you will have to harden up a bit to tell your dh AND give him a deadline, because he will say yes i will change but then won't. The consequence of that deadline will have to be carried out then because you really DO NOT want to have both your pregnancies and birth tainted with always thinking of him and his feelings/reactions and not actually living your birth experience the way you could. Beleive me I know I regret having my xh yes he is my xh now and a big part of it was this behaviour I,m sorry to tell you. And the hv mw told me not to leave him then when I was too veluneranle blike you but I should have done sooner I really should. Hope you do what is right for you and your dcs because even though he is ill he is a grwn man and can get his own help and then follow you.
