I just snapped at DH and cried because he did my toast wrong

[MinisterforCheekyFuckery]

I've been so sick that I've barely eaten anything for days aside from the odd cracker/breadstick.
Woke up this morning and to my surprise I felt ok and realised I was actually even feeling hungry for a change! I was craving scrambled egg on toast, which DH dutifully set about making for me. I was excited to eat something that actually tastes of something and maybe, hopefully enjoy it for the first time in ages but when he put it in front of me I realised he'd buttered the toast.
I haven't been able to taste, smell, even look at anything with butter without wretching for weeks and DH knows this but must have forgotten. Anyway, I snapped at him and now I feel terrible.

So now I'm crying, partly because I feel guilty for being horrible to DH and if I'm honest, a little bit because of my toast related disappointment. I'm also now back to feeling sick again and feel like I've missed my brief window of opportunity to eat something and actually keep it down.

Someone hand me a massive grip or give me a kick up the arse please? I'm getting so annoyed with myself for not being able to just get on with it. I'm also due back in work tomorrow after a few days off so I need to pull myself together but everything just seems so difficult at the moment.

Don't feel guilty about dh. You've given him a little taster of life with a toddler, a practice run if you like.

Pregnancy does weird things to us, you'll be hard pushed to find someone who hasn't snapped and cried over something really daft during pregnancy - my dh bought me the wrong size peppermint aero one day, and I stormed off to bed in tears.

Go eat whatever you fancy, if you fancy something, and forget about it.

It's ok love, I cried that much at an advert for toilet roll when I was pregnant that DH had to get my mum on the phone to talk me down . Pregnancy hormones plus sickness is bloody grim, so forgive yourself

Don't beat yourself up op i cried yesterday because
•the house isn't as clean and everything sitting in place as i like it to be
•because i nipped my finger cleaning out the fire
•because dh was nice to me
Pregnancy really is a mad rollercoaster but just remember its normal and it will lass and be forgotten about

If nothing else, pregnancy is an excellent excuse for the emotional abuse of partners (dont have kids, dont want kids and have seem what it does to marriages over things like this).

I mean, imagine if a woman had posted here complaining that her stressed/tired/worried/emotional husband had complained about the toast or an aero..........lots of LTBs.

Fuck off @scottishdiem.

OP, I read your post to my DH and said how I totally understood where you were coming from. He said to me "stop it, you'll make yourself cry". And he's right, just thinking about how you feel mean, but also hungry and sad almost made me cry! Pregnancy hormones are ridiculous.

scottish I regret snapping at DH and am completely willing to acknowledge that I've been unreasonable on this occasion but I really think "emotional abuse" is OTT.

@MinisterforCheekyFuckery you shouldnt have to explain to @scottishdiem as she isnt in the position to comment on something she hasn't any experience on and is possibly just trying to piss of pregnant women

@scottishdiem do you seriously think any of us want to snap and loose our cool in front of/at our DP? No we don't and i can assure you most of us feel terribly guilty afterwards!! So before you start commenting your bullshit on something you dont know anything about or have experienced just fuck off!! Oh and i advise you to stay off the pregnancy section just incase you cant keep your fingers to themselves

@MinisterforCheekyFuckery I'm not pregnant but I have been 5 times and I feel your pain. Hopefully you and DH can have a hug and I hope you feel a bit brighter soon!

@scottishdiem have a

You’ve been feeling sick for days and missed the opportunity to eat. I think even a non-pregnant person would be entitled to be upset about that. Feeling sick is horrible. And lol at ‘emotional abuse’ 😂
Hope you feel a bit better soon, op

I had a full on, red faced, snot nosed breakdown in a shop because the lady behind the counter did my toast wrong when I was pregnant with DS.

I like it really lightly done and she put it through the machine again after it had come out (perfect) the first time. I tried to tell her that's exactly how I liked it but she spoke over me saying 'that's not what toast looks like. Toast is dark brown'. To me it was burnt by the time she had finished.

The manager was lovely, gave me a hug and free toast and a drink. I went into apologise to the lady the next day because I was worried I'd got her into trouble.

If it's and consolation I cried when pregnant because DH put herbs on my cheese on toast

I shouted and swore at my DP for using the last of the bread as he left for work. I then cried as I texted him that I was sorry but was still angry as I still wanted toast.
I then cried when my DP texted my dad who dropped off three loaves of bread.
Pregnancy is a flipping rollercoaster of extreme emotion. Yesterday I cried on the phone to my mum for half an hour. I started crying watching Brooklyn 99. My midwife actually spoke to my DP about my rollercoaster mood swings as a warning in my booking in appointment and I'm so glad she did.
I hope your DH understands! And don't feel bad.

@booandbumpp what part of Brooklyn 99 tipped you over the edge? Being nosy as it's my fave programme

Hope your DH is understanding. Mine didn't get it at all, when I was 41+6, in a very hot August, he said I was lazy for lying on the sofa drinking milk and water all day. It was pretty much all I could do! And I was looking after DD then nearly 4 all day while he was at work.

'love'
yuk

@TobleroneBoo we're rewatching from the beginning as well as watching the new series 😂 I love it.
Erm it was when Super Dan came in to the station to give a statement about drug dealers in season 1 and Rosa and Santiago made jokes about him. I cried when Santiago said to terry at the end that they were there to take care of everyone no matter their background or something. Not sob crying but definitely tears. Honestly, my tear ducts are ridiculously over active right now.

I had an incident in yhe first trimester which left me feeling exactly like this. (Long and short of it, I had a hellish morning in the supermarkets and was challenged when I came home as to my choice of cupboard to store the potatoes in. I told him to 'just leave me alone' and burst into histerical tears, ran to bed, cried for a good hour then fell asleep. Felt just horrible for being mean to DH mixed in with exhaustion and high emotions it was also my birthday so was generally peeved at having the worst morning ever!

I'm happy to report second trimester was much better and I've not been mean to him since. I really hope your sickness eases soon and you can look back on this time and just think 'god that was awful' DH will completely understand!

Love reading all your great reasons for crying/getting angry.
I cried ugly tears this morning because I broke a glass and subsequently hurt my thumb when getting the hoover out.
Yesterday I cried watching a children's film.
Last week I cried because I was laughing (no joke).

I shouted at DH from the top of the stairs after I'd stood on his toes and he pointed out we'd agreed not to wear shoes in the house think I was about 6 weeks along then. Now 13 weeks and have a blub every Saturday (like clockwork almost) but mostly I like to think I'm fairly reasonable.
