From a blokes point of veiw i am doing my best to get my head around all this lark. it is strange to comprehend just how something you love can suddenly turn your stomach so much.

even more so it's really disheartening when you've taken the time to do something like the cook for example and you'd outright turn it down.....not to mention a little annoying.

for the most part though i understand, its not something my OH is doing to annoy me and to be honest i think i'm fairly understanding. but there are times when i get snappy too, but its generally when i've not had a great day.

in those cases i generally try not to see my GF unless she wants to see me, because i know i'm already wound up if that makes sense

Well, I thought my husband was oblivious to it all. The only thing he thinks is great is that he cooks for himself now, so can eat whatever he likes (his favourite is gammon, but I hate it).
I have been quite poorly, with a bout of tonsilitis, followed by a cold and a tickly cough that lasted nearly a fortnight. I've also been really snappy.
I was feeling really low on Friday, wondering why the hell he was with this grumpy moody cow and wouldn't blame him if he just left!
So Friday night he turns up with a huge bouquet of flowers! He said that he knew I was feeling down and that he couldn't do anything to help, but he could still spoil me.. Aah - how sweet is my hubby!!!!

WOOOOOWWWWW

no food for 20 weeks??

did you do the cambridge diet?

Mine is pretty good. He understands that meat is just not on my menu at the minute and the only thing i can really eat at the minute is carbs. He comes home every day and asks what i've eaten. I tell him and then he says i really should start eating properly. Bless him. He offers to cook me something but i have to point blank refuse if it involves meat. He was really impressed that i ate a sausage sarni on sunday morning but i felt sick as soon as i ate it and he looked really worried!!

They do try but i understand they cant know exactly how it feels as they're never going to experience it. So i feel a bit sorry for them really for being totally clueless!!!

Stan was actually really good about everything, especially in first trimester. He ate hamburger meat for almost a solid month because I couldn't stomach the thought of anything else and he did the majority of the cooking.

My OH is been preety good to, will always ask what i want and cook what i fancy or go out and get it. The food side wasnt the problem it was the mood swings he couldnt get his head around and still cant

My hubby has been lovely.

I don't think mine 'gets it'. He trys, but he goes about things the wrong way. He doesn't understand how I feel, and how it feels to be in this body. And often tries to find 'solutions' rather than providing comfort.

Actually, just had a row over such a small thing - I have a headache (and I'm not taking tablets because although they say paracetamol is safe - it is?) I am exhausted, and have been weak as a kitten all day.

I finally get to talk to my OH on the phone, and but this time I'm sat here with the lights off it hurts so much. We chat about our days then he asks about the course I'm going on on Wednesday and he starts telling me I have to claim my breakfast back when I get back to work as I set off before 7 (he works for the same company) ... anyway blah the details are not important ... he went on and on about how it was in the company policy and I was entitled to it. I wasn't even planning on buying breakfast I was just going to take a pack up, and I said no-one else where I work claims it and I'd feel cheeky if I did. He would not shut up about it!!! Just kept saying the same points again and again and raising his voice. FOUR times I told him that it was enough and he was making my head ache worse.

In the end I just started sobbing and hung up.

Mine is being "too" nice right now

Im waiting for something to go wrong

Or for him to tell me that he wants something
