I am 27 weeks with dc2. However, everyone still expects me to be wonderwomand and carry on as normal!!!

Over christmas i have organised everything including cooking xmas dinner for 12 and been the perfect host. However, i am now feeling knackered, fed up and emptional.

DC is kicking me to death 24/7 (i know i shouold be grateful for the movement) DS1 is becoming more and more clingy and DH expects life to drift on as usual. In an attempt to seem like he is thinking of me he is now inviting people over instead of us going out. Great until i realise they all expect feeding!!

To top tings off he came down with a chest infection just before christmas which left him immobile and dying - until he was invited for a game of golf of course!!

I know this is a really self indulgent rant but i needed to vent and for some reason seem to be genetically programmed to get on with things and only moan to myself!

I know a lot of this is hormones and i will be fine tomorrow but sometimes you just need to get it off your chest!!!

Well I'm not pregnant and I'm already insisting on takeaways / going out as I'm sick of cooking and looking after people.

If it was me I would insist he goes to the shop and comes back with a load of bread and cheese and fresh soup and bottles of vino / juice to supply everyone with.

Poor you.
I would hide upstairs with a good book and tell DH to look after DS1 while you put your feet up for at least 2 hours.
