Pregnant and husband is calling me lazy

Anonymous
but i'm so tired all the time. When i come home from work all i want to do is sit on the couch and watch TV. He wants me to clean, cook and go to the gym, like i did up until about 2 weeks ago. I freaked out on him and now we aren't talking. He so doesn't get it!! He's thinks i need to suck it up!

In my head, I want to do all those things but my body just is not feeling it...I'm trying to at least go to the gym still 4 days a week to at least walk or get on the elliptical, but nothing like the workouts I had not that long ago. And hes saying things like, "youre not really pregnant when i Google what I can/cant do. I am 10 weeks pregnant. I dont think I need to have a bump in order to take pregnancy advice. How did I marry such an insensitive jerk.

If you are in your first trimester tell him you are growing a whole other human including all the organs. They are all complete by the time you're in week 13. Totally normal to feel exhausted. I took naps after work and DH made dinner 80% of the time. Have him go to a dr appointment with you. Good luck!!

He's an asshole. I was exhausted from about 12 weeks to 15 weeks. I slept on the couch a few nights because I couldn't get up. And has the morning sickness kicked in?

You will be all kinds of exhausted when the baby is born due to lack of sleep and your hormones going insane. I hope he does some of the night duties, because otherwise, I'm thinking he will continue to be an asshole after the baby is born.

I'm sooo sorry for you.

He is awful. You are growing a PERSON inside you. That little parasite is Lee hing all of your energy to make bones and brains and organs. You need rest and replenishment. He sucks.

He's being an insensitive, un-emthatic jerk and knows nothing about pregnancy. He will likely get worse and when the baby is born, be even worse.

I've been through it myself. I'm so sorry OP.

He's beyond an a-hole. He deserves a junk punch.

Does he have any friends who aren't a-holes who could talk some sense into him? I wonder if there's maybe a dude-focused pregnancy book that might explain it to him? I'd be furious, honestly.

why are some men like this? Seriously. Is it because they just have no clue and think we women are faking it?

There was that youtube video of a man going through fake labor for mother's day or something. Your H needs to do something like that.

We'll see who the lazy one is once the baby is born.

So sorry you have to deal with this. When I was pregnant, all I wanted to do was sleep. Especially during my first trimester. I stopped going to the gym, and dh would pick up take out because I was too tired to cook (and I had serious Taco Bell cravings...don't judge).

You should make him read some pregnancy books so that he can educate himself about pregnancy.

Btw...how old is your dh? He sounds very immature.
