...just need a little rant, am only 6 weeks pregnant but am tired and grumpy and stressed out. Have got to write a 5000 word assignment for university tomorrow, was up til 1am last night, only wrote 1057 words... then couldn't sleep because my nose hasn't stopped running since I P'eed OAS! Grrr! So I woke up this morning, really tired, asked by DP if he'd make me a cup of tea and he said no because he's tired. Every time I woke up in the night he was snoring his head off! So I bit my lip, came downstairs, only to find that my son's hamster has ransacked his cage, flicking sawdust EVERYWHERE and the dog has chewed a toy up in the hall, so there's fluff and bits all over the place! Then I went to turn my laptop on and the screen was just black. I burst out crying!!!! have managed to get my laptop working, but am sitting amongst sawdust and fluff crying my eyes out for what feels like no reason. My DP has just come in and told me to man up because i'm getting myself worked up over nothing. (which I know I am but that is not what I wanted to hear!!!!) I could punch him so hard right now!!! He also said it's my fault for leaving it so late. Which again, it is, but I've got an 8yr old DS, am trying to complete my PGCE and have been teaching full time all week.

SDGASDKGASKDLJFSADKFJ:ASDKFJAKS:DLFJ!!! I feel better just for letting that all out!!!!!!!

Any tips on how to not be so bloody emotional? I'm sitting in the dining room typing away with fury and my DP is laughing at the tv, just the sound of his laugh is making me want to smother him with a cushion!!!!! Also, he has decided that now is the time to embark on a healthy eating/fitness plan. I know that's a good thing, but is it wrong that I want him to get fat in solidarity with me??!!
Even the way the hamster is looking at me is winding me up now!!! RROOAARR!! am off to get a nice relaxing luke warm bath which will hopefully calm me down. I just needed a little rant. Thanks to anyone who bothers listening to my hormonal moaning! :) xx

My DH has been lucky to still be breathing so far into my pregnancy so I know how you feel. He hasn't done anything wrong really but I'd still cheerfully throttle him.

Suffering badly with SPD at the minute, and whilst he is doing all he can to help, sentences like "not long left" give me the rage. There's 11 fucking weeks left, you try doing this and seeing if it doesn't seem like long!

To be fair, he's booked me a pregnancy massage this week so I can't be too harsh.

haha! I've just had a bath but feel no better. Just had an argument with my DP over nothing so feel awful. All I want to do is sit and cry and feel sorry for myself but have got so much to do :(

I'm 7+6 and OH is not being helpful at all. Keeps telling me to man up because I feel sick all the time and struggling to eat! This morning he tried to tell me that it was mind over matter... Like I actually want to feel this rubbish!! Gggrrrr!! Confused I'm not sure how I'm going to get through the next 7 months (fingers crossed everything goes ok!!) so i feel your pain!!!

AnnaBanana25 · 12/01/2014 12:32

I have had some interesting moments too, believe me, and it really is down to the hormones. Tell him, in the nicest way, that he can shove his 'man up', as you are currently growing a human! It will be totally normal to have these moments and he should understand that, leave you to it, and react by fetching you tea, pronto. Hope you feel better soon!

Hey we r all entitled to down days esp when preggers. Sometimes men can be selfish and it surprises me how little understanding (some, not all) have when it comes to pregnancy and our feelings. Just this morn i said i slept really well but was surprised as i didnt do much yesterday his response "i can tell" so i said hey i did washimg and put food shopping away so back off. These comments happen alot lol but ignore and will do as and when i pls lol...pls dnt stress about things, have a cat nap and recharge and start again! Cuppa and biccie. Oh if he wants to eat healthy let him it wont last (usually a post x mas plan :-) ) he will soon regret it when u sit down with sticky bun amd he a banana to eat!! LOL
everything will seem alot worse with lack of sleep

he's singing upstairs now to the dog while I try and work. I genuinely want to kick him out/kick him in the balls!!! I bought a pregnancy book yesterday and this morning in bed was reading it while he read some football book. Every page he kept telling me a football fact (despite knowing I hate football) so then I started trying to tell him some pregnancy facts to which he put his head under the quilt and groaned. He's just shouted me upstairs to pass him his towel which was all the way on the toilet seat while he was in the bath?? IS HE FOR REAL?! I very nearly held his head under the bathwater!!!!!!!!!

Have just made myself a cuppa and have inhaled a packet of chocolate buttons...have just got so much to do today. My DS stayed in his nan's last night so thankfully he's not here to see me have a breakdown! :) thanks for listenin, glad im not the only one going through this pregnancy rage!!!!! :)

Bless sound like the same as my household, I have a tax return to complete for someone by tomorrow, not started it yet as the most awful ligiment pain since 9.30 this morning, so rang midwife who confirmed probably that,take it easy , take paracetamol every 4 hrs, feel very crap and worse because I know I have so much to do ( currently 22 weeks) my dd at her nans last night who is 8 also, and all Dh keeps asking is "whens dinner?" he is cutting logs outside, but we have loads cut, so early he could be getting on with dinner, also have 4 puppies at mo that need constant attention, feeding, cleaning ect, hopefully they will be at their ew homes next week, as well as our 14 yr sold asking when dinner is!!!! Bloody men, I feel like running away sometimes :0)

Justpenny · 12/01/2014 13:43

my DP has just stormed out to take the dog for a walk and "leave me to it". Im seriously contemplating packing a bag and booking a flight! haha! why don't they understand??? he thinks i'm a lunatic at the best of times, I'm always mega stressed but i'm trying to finish my teaching qualification, which involves teaching secondary brats students full time, as well as looking after my DS, and basically running the house. I know this is just hormones and pregnancy rage etc but right now everything just feels really crappy!!

I think hormones have a lot to answer for, but they are only highlighting things more clearly I think lol! It is true that if men had to have children there would only ever be 1 child lol ! Also I would love to just go to work in the day, cone home, have a shower, have my tea served up, get settled on couch and watch tv until bedtime! That seems to be my Dh routine lol xx

Justpenny · 12/01/2014 13:58

hahaha! so would I!! Men have it so so easy!! He had the nerve to complain about feeling dizzy before because he stood up too quickly. I just looked at him. I swear if he was pregnant he would have been signed off work for 9 months and expect total bed rest!!!! Men eh?!
