Fell really upset, cross and Fed up since I have been on mat leave my oh acts like he doesn't have to do anything like working 8 hours is the hardest thing ever and u don't have to help out around the house cos u r too tired I'm really fed up of it starting to worry how I will cope after the baby is born its hard enough now. Feel like I have no support but probe just hormones

Nip this in the bus now with your OH. Decide what you expect him to do on top of working between now and the birth and after baby comes.

You can renegotiate later but it sets the standard that he has to pull his weight at home.

You are on mat leave because being heavily pregnant is work and then because having a baby is work. Neither is just 8 hours a day.

Yeah nip it in the bud. First day of my maternity leave my OH was wondering where his breakfast, lunch, dinner was and why x,y,z hadn't been done in the house because I'd been at home all day. I politely told him I'd been in bed because I had zero sleep through the night. (Pregnancy insomnia)
