I lost a baby at 4 months pregnant at the start of the year and I'm now nearly 5 months pregnant again. I was signed off with HG with the baby I lost, signed off after the miscarriage for obvious reasons. I went back to work in between and was signed off again during some of the first trimester with sickness and anxiety. I've struggled with pelvic pain and migraines in the second trimester so have missed a bit of work and done more than usual from home. For months my husband has become nastier to me, more cold and just showing contempt towards me and this morning I said I'm working from home again as my pelvic pain is really bad and I didn't sleep well, he went off on one. My wheat pack was in the microwave to ease the pain and he turned it off at the wall and I asked why he did that and he said to spite you. I asked why do you want to spite your pregnant wife who is saying she's in pain? And he just went off on one. "You're always in pain, you're always ill, but you're not are you? You're lazy and can't be bothered to work and just want to sit on your phone. Funnily enough you're never too ill to sit their and scroll on your phone"
Yes I've missed a lot of work, and yes I've been ill a lot in the past 12 months but I've also been pregnant for 9 of them! I'm so upset. I cried my eyes out and he accused me of putting on a show and whisked our toddler away from nasty crying mum who is scaring him and started playing dad of the year. There's no coming back from this is there? I feel so disrespected to be accused of lying rather than him being slightly compassionate about everything I've been through this year.
