I said to him 'if I was in africa and I was pregnant, i wouldn't be the one getting water, that would be you.' and he was like, yeah well... i could do it and be pregnant. Pfft, he wishes. Why do men always think they could handle birth and pregnancy better than us but the minute they get a cold, sorry "man flu" they are confined to bed for weeks on end as if they are dying...?

The more evolved men aka modern men knows that pregnancy is not an easy task. It takes out all the nutrients and energy from a person. So, some men are more sympathetic. The lesser evolved ones are clueless and are not aware that pregnancy is a major change to the body. Those are the ones who did not pay attention in biology class.

I still say Sparky has the honours because of her OH. I cannot complain about mine.

I just came back from picking the OH up from the train station and a taxi driver dared to honk at me for allowing pedestrians to cross. And I yelled at him in my lovely American accent: Yo, you are just going to have to f*cking wait!!! And of course, when he drove up next to me, he would not dare say a word. Being pregnant is better than when I used to PMT!

So, bring it on - let's bash idiots thread, Sparky!!!

Honestly? No. With my luck nothing eventful would happen, no sore back, no sore hips, no trouble sleeping, no anything. Then he would spend the rest of it telling me, "oh it's not that bad!" This way I can just tell him all sorts of things and he has to take my word for it lol!
