Firstly, I had my repeat bloods done earlier this week (mw rang me to say they 'weren't as expected' but wouldn't discuss it over the phone) - my platelets are high. I'm not unduly worried - this happened during my pregnancy with DD as well, plus I'm on aspirin due to my bmi so it's not a 'new' thing. Still haven't quite forgiven her for putting the fear of god in to me though during that original phone call.
Anyway, the whinge. For the last two weeks I've had an absolute stinker of a cold. I can't shake it off and I'm now in the hacking cough (during which my pelvic floor struggles. Tmi?), aches, cold, sinus headache stage. Lips are dry and I have mouth ulcers everywhere. I am miserable. 'D'P is off work this weekend and instead of thinking 'hmm, my pregnant gf (14+5) is really struggling. I'll look after our 11.5mo to give her a break', he's whined I haven't stopped her emptying her toy box the second she starts, he's got on with the stuff he wanted to do on his day off and when I fell asleep on the sofa, he decided to go shopping. Without DD
.
I can't even bastard well take anything for it, so I have handed dd over to him, announced I'm off for a bath (lukewarm, cos, y'know, pregnant [meh] ) and left them to it. All I can hear is him shouting at the dog and 'oh, dd, noooo!!'. I'm not getting out the bath though.
DP isn't normally this hands off, I think he's come to expect that I just do everything as default (I only work 2 days a week now) so it doesn't occur to him that, you know, I love her & all, but I may want a 'day off' from being the default parent for once. I am probably being totally unreasonable but the way I feel right now, I don't give a shit. I just want to not have a god damn cold.
