    When I'm having a less stressed and hormonal day I can appreciate how hard it is when they have to do everything now, which they're not used to.

    Complete opposite in our house. OH doesn't do ANYTHING extra now that I'm pregnant. Chance would be a fine thing!

    they do get lazy too. mine would happily sit at his stupid laptop and surf and also check his phone every 2 seconds. last night he just put on a wash (its nt that hard is it?). then left the clothes in. this morning all i said was they stink a bit and need a quick cycle and he had a fit! grrr. stupid men! maybe when both of you calm down, speak to him. i know how fiestiness can make one so stubborn!

    He always knows exactly how to ruin a good day out. I love him but think he is an inherently lazy person and has only ever had to look after himself. Everything is an effort to him. On his day's off he 'never gets chance' to tidy the house, or says he's done it and I go home and find its a complete mess but he's put one load of washing on and thinks he deserves a medal :( I really thought things would change now I'm pregnant but now obviously not!

    We were going out with friends tmrw night (just to a pub quiz) but I dont even want to look at him at the minute, so I definitely dont want him coming along anymore.

    hon when you are more calm you will def be ok. I have been there where i want to just chuck things at him. maybe you can write to him? i find even after we are calm we cant bring up the subject as it results in another row, so i end up texting him. sometimes he says he ignores my texts which is fine, but i do hope he eventually reads them. :( try and have a chat with him. i try and send DH some articles where it says how to look after pregnant wives/partners and then so that he doesnt feel left out, i also say that i am aware what he is going through, ie changes to his life, fear of stuff. maybe that might help? dont be angry hon. i know you deserve to be, but its causing you and bubba excessive stress. xx

    Thanks ladies

    On a more positive note, before the big fall out we did go to a Mumbler Nearly New Sale and I managed to buy:
    10 x unisex bibs for £2
    1 x brand new millie and borris toy bar, dangly thing (not sure what they are called) to clip onto the pram/pushchair for £5
    1 x Baby sling for £5

    Hurrah for sales!

    Hey can i join you ladies.

    Im 24 weeks pregnant with Baby 2.
    My first daughter is 14 months and an IVF baby.
    Baby 2 is a boy due 8th November and a complete and total natural suprise.

    Would love to get support with pregancy this time round as i got loads the first time round.

    Got to say even second time round im still going through the breastfeeding/cloth nappy dilema. Even though i failed miserably with both last time. I was determined not to try this time but getting those vibes again lol.
