I'm so mad at my dad.
He's always going on about pregnancy isn't an illness blah blah when I have SPD so bad just walking to the car is a struggle. I have constant sickness, hideous depression and anxiety, exhaustion and I'm allergic to progesterone. Fab.
So he won't ever help with anything and tuts if I won't eat blue cheese, etc.
Tonight I'm in a total flap that I probably won't get maternity pay and will either get even worse PND by working until I go into labour and then going back to work 2 weeks later, or stay off and lose my house and everything else. All on my other thread.
I rang my dad for help and he said 'well you'll have to go into labour at work and go back 2 weeks later, there are no other options for you'. I said it takes at least 6 weeks to recover from the birth and last time took me a lot longer, I still had bad SPD, a womb infection and very, very bad PND by 6 weeks later. He said 'oh it certainly does not take 6 weeks to recover from having a baby, you can go back after 2. You won't get to take off all that time you were expecting to'. I said 'medically, it takes 6 weeks' and he said 'oh whatever but I don't agree'.
I haven't stopped crying since just out of pure anger. How can he be so ignorant and arrogant.
As if things weren't bad enough.
And now I'm crippled with what i hope are braxton hicks.
