DH does nothing!

Currently pregnant with DC3, told DH if we was going to keep this baby he needed to help more! He told me not to get an abortion and he would look after us so, for weeks he did better and I was so happy but the last week he's gone back to his old self doing nothing and just being an absolute pr*ck! The amount of time's he has said "your only pregnant" it's getting boring.

Iv had enough I'm 6 months now and can't do anything about it, I can't even leave because I have c-section delivery's and no one else to help Sad

Also feel like I have to just sit with my thumb in my mouth as don't want to argue in front of DC!

Don't even know why I'm posting probably just needed a rant!

Wow he sounds awful. Hope you're not doing things like cooking for him and laundry.

Have you tried saying things to him like do you want to bath the DC or do the washing up? ie sitting on you arse isn't an option

If you left the loser he would have to parent his kids 50% of the time. Imagine how much more enjoyable your life would be without this pointless misogynist in it, setting a dreadful example to your kids.

You either put up with it or pack up and go.
Very rare that a man like this will change his ways.

You knew he wouldnt change. You've already got 2 children and he didnt step up. Why would he now?

You knew exactly what was going to happen yet you let yourself get into this mess. Time to get out of it.

Once the kid is born and you have recovered, you leave and you create a happy life for yourself because you wont get that with him.

@Itsalmostanaccessory your so right just don't know how id support 3 DC alone if he doesn't helpSad

@NowEvenBetter He would have to take me to court to get them 50/50, iv raised them everyday of their life and wouldn't have them taken 50/50 unless a judge forced me to!

But he doesnt help anyway.

@TracyMosby he will do the bare minimum and lifting / driving dc to school, I'm hoping anyway!

When he tells you ‘you’re only pregnant’ he’s not pregnant so why’s he not pulling his own weight?

Don’t do anything for him. And start planning to leave the waste of space.
