I'm Currently Feeling: | really fed up ive got 4 days to go and im really fed up, OH is making me feel like utter shit i feel like he is constantly be-littleing me always throwing sly comments at me like "your going to get a big shock and a reality check" and "ill give u half a day on your own with her and youll be pulling your hair out" no wonder im having terrible dreams worrying. i feel like everybody thinks i wont be able to cope or something. and even though ive got 4 days left i could realisticly still have 2 weeks left if i dont go before i need to be induced.
how long have u ladies got left? also since being pregnant does anybody that used to enjoy their friday or saturday weekend nights not realise it is friday or saturday anymore lol!

I'm Currently Feeling: | I think you will be a lovely mum. Don't let his comments get to you  . Who does he think he is anyway? Haha, you could very well say those exact comments to him! If he had a day on his own with the baby would it be easier or something? My DH can't even load the dish washer right!!!
Congrats coming this far hun, just a little more to go and you will have a bundle of joy that will change your life in the best way you can imagine! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Please don't be worrying about how you will cope when the baby arrives. To some degree it is natural, and shows you will be a good mother because you're thinking about things practically and you want to do the best you can. However worrying can only make things worse to a degree - research has shown that women who go into childbirth feeling relaxed and prepared don't get the contractions as painful...!
No one can ever know how they will handle being a new mum, but we all muddle through in the end, don't we? It's usually the men who struggle when left on their own; when my sister went into hospital shortly after the birth of her son, her OH was on the phone to her all night with stupid little questions like "where do we keep the nappies??" - Doesn't he have the capacity to look for something himself?! Yikes! If I told every story of male incompetence, though we'd be here all day... and this is already turning into an essay. Besides, while it can make us feel better sometimes to remind ourselve just how much superior to our ignorant male conterparts we are, being critical of your other half right now will only make things worse.
If you're looking on advice on how to handle this, just try your hardest to block out his nasty comments and remember that you will be just fine (aren't we all when it comes down to it??) and try telling him that you're hurt by his comments and ask him to remember that you guys are supposed to be supportive of each other.
Do you think that he could be worrying about something or there could be some underlyin reason for his cutting comments? Maybe ask him if he's dealing with the pregnancy okay and how he feels about becoming a daddy in 4 days(!)
I hope this helps a little, and hope you don't feel down for too long. Try thinking about how wonderful it will be when you have your bundle of joy (dunno if it works for you, but for me this always gets me grinning like a cheshire cat!) *big hugs* hun, x |
