I’m just about at the end of my rope tonight with husband’s comments about my weight. I’m 20 weeks pregnant for context.
He’s had a few drinks today after not drinking for a while (health kick) and he was being mildly tipsy and annoying, plus I’m pregnant and hormonal and I said “what happened to your new lifestyle?” and he snapped back “well you’re not one to talk about healthy lifestyle” and I’m absolutely furious. This isn’t the first time he’s made comments along the lines of “wow you’re getting massive” “careful not to stack the weight on” and other thinly veiled digs since I’ve been pregnant. There was some of this before I got pregnant as well, and once in an argument he outright called me fat, which he later apologised for and it hasn’t been that blatant since.
Since I know it will be asked 😂 he is pretty good looking and fit himself, although doesn’t have the six pack he did when we met. I’m about the same as when we met (aside from the pregnancy) at a size 14. We eat a pretty healthy diet with plenty of fruit and veg, however I’ve been eating more in quantity and first trimester was pretty unhealthy due to morning sickness.
He’s a good husband in all other ways and there’s no other signs of nasty behaviour or comments.
I’m just so hurt and fed up with it and I don’t know how to fix it or what to do next. We have our 20 week scan tomorrow and I feel like I don’t want him to come as I don’t want to have to get my belly out which I think repulses him :(. Any advice welcome.
