I am 7 and a half months pg and really dont feel like going out at the moment. I am sooooo uncomfortable and tired. still working fulltime and have 2 kids. i will do the cinema or a meal at a push but cant bear the thought of going to pubs where i would usually be drinking and wearing size 10 jeans. I feel like a big whale it probably sounds pathetic but i cant help it. Why cant i keep a low profile for the last 6 weeks. dh is moaning about me not going out with him to pubs. just dont feel like it. But if i dont make an effort he will go on his own and then i feel like i cant complain, but i dont really like sitting in on my own. sob sob why dont men have babies too there life doesnt change. am i selfish. (i have had a really awful pg and it was also very much a shock to start, thought i couldnt have anymore kids)

any comments???

Really feel for you I think your Dh needs to compromise, you are willing to go to the cinema and eat out so still spending time with him. It won't hurt him for 6 weeks maybe you could agree a night a week that he goes to the pub and you get your place all to yourself, just think you could tuck yourself up in bed with a magazine by half 8!
Hope you are feeling a little better x

Oh ffs to your dh! I felt like hibernating for the last 2 months both times. Think its totally normal to turn inwards a bit at this point, and for a while afterwards. I remember not really wanting to meet new people or anything-I wasn't depressed, just not interested. Spoken to others since-its really common.

Let him go out, get a nice hot drink and some chocolate and go on MN chat for a bit (I can't wait til my kids are older and I have time to do this).

I feel for u as well, at 7.5 months PG my DH was lucky if I even spoke to him! around this time I got v v anti social and didn't want to see any one. I don't think u're selfish at all - more he is for expecting u to want to go out etc with him. he's a bog boy, and as the other girls have said if u did stop in u could relax have a nice long bath get a box of choccys and curl up on the sofa with a movie - or MN!
