Would anyone else be annoyed?

[ForeverHopeful21]

I'm 40 weeks pregnant with my first child and my DH has told me that he's accepted invites to golfing events both in 5 weeks and 6 weeks time (consecutive weekends).
He's taking two weeks paternity when the baby is here so obviously by then I'm hoping I'll be well underway with what I'm doing, but golf days out are loooong and I think I just feel really shocked because personally I can't see past the baby arriving and the last thing on my mind is arranging plans with friends.

Obviously I don't know what to expect as I've never had a baby before, but I just assumed that we'd remain a tight little unit for a couple of months .....is that just a romantic notion? I feel really annoyed that he's already booking days out when baby isn't even here yet. My hormones are everywhere at the moment and I feel unsure whether my feelings are justified?

I would be livid!

I would be fucked off big time! My dd spent the first six months screaming unless held. Saturday was the best day of the week by far! You kind of get into weekend countdown as it means help. Of course you may have a dream of a baby who loves napping and smiling, in which case it's not so bad. Family time together is so precious though. It so thoughtless of him to not discuss it with you before booking it.

Babies are totally worth the hard work btw.

I would be very annoyed! But I think men don't think of these things properly. My DH (very supportive etc in general) agreed to going away with work for 2 days over my due date... I told him I was very annoyed and he cancelled but admits he just wasn't thinking straight. Men.

I think one of the things as a woman is that you can never not think about being pregnant and the baby... What you eat, where you go, clothes you wear, maternity leave, body changes, back pain, being kicked internally etc etc. As a man you don't have this 24/7 endless reminder that a new human is about to come along!
