Men that think they could handle pregnancy better than us

AppleBlossom · Apr 25th, 2008, 12:30 PM

Is it just me who's OH thinks that women are crap at being pregnant and men would be much better at it? He seems to think all we do is moan. I said to him before I'm going to strap a melon to him, make him walk around all day with it on, pushing down on his bladder when he really needs a wee and then, when he gets into bed, everytime he starts to drift off to sleep I'll give him a few quick digs in the ribs. Just so he knows a teensy bit what it's like.

Hmmph. Men

My OH is really sympathetic a lot of the time... he always says 'sorry baby, is there anything I can do?' and stuff like that if I complain about something.

BUT he expects me to get on as I did before.. all the housework, tea on the table, sex and that sort of thing. When I want to stretch my legs out on the sofa he complains when he has to move somewhere else so I can have soon room lol. He's not nasty, I just don't think he realises how hard it is sometimes.
